Which is a characteristic of aromatic hydrocarbons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Jlenok [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A. Alternating single and double bonds

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons i.e. hydrogen and carbon containing compounds, are grouped into two namely: aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. Aliphatic hydrocarbons contains straight or branched chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms in their structure e.g. alkanes, alkenes etc.

On the other hand, aromatic hydrocarbons are cyclic hydrocarbons containing one or more cyclic rings. The benzene ring is the basis of all aromatic hydrocarbons and one characteristics of benzene is that it possesses an alternating single (-) and double bonds (=) in their structure.

Since benzene is a building constituent of aromatic hydrocarbons, an "alternating single and double bond" is a characteristics of aromatic hydrocarbons.

A gaseous mixture of O2 and N2 contains 37.8% nitrogen by mass. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the tot
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

Explanation:

mass of nitrogen = 37.8 g

mass of oxygen = (100-37.8) g = 62.2 g

Using the equation given by Raoult's law, we get:

p_A=\chi_A\times P_T

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of O_2 = ?

\chi_{O_2} = mole fraction of O_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }O_2}{\text{Total moles}}

P_{T} = total pressure of mixture  = 525 mmHg

{\text{Moles of }O_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{62.2g}{32g/mol}=1.94moles

{\text{Moles of }N_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{37.8g}{28g/mol}=1.35moles

Total moles = 1.94 + 1.35 = 3.29 moles

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{1.94}{3.29}=0.59

p_{O_2}=\chi_{O_2}\times P_T=0.59\times 525=310mmHg

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

What is the process of grouping similar things together
andre [41]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Mathematically, this means to combine like terms, such as terms with the same variable.  In chemistry, this can refer to polar objects combining with polar objects while nonpolar objects combine with nonpolar objects.

The spectrochemical series is I < Br< < Cl^- < F
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

b. The splitting of the d-orbitals is smaller in the [Ni(Cl)6]4- complex than in the [Ni(en)3]2+ complex.

Explanation:

The spectrochemical series is an arrangement of ligands in increasing order of their magnitude of crystal field splitting.

Ligands that occurs towards the right in the series are called strong field ligands and they tend to cause a greater magnitude of crystal field splitting. Ligands that occur towards the left hand side in the series are called weak field ligands and they tend to cause a lesser magnitude of crystal field splitting.

Since Cl^- is a weak field ligand, it causes a lesser magnitude of d orbital splitting compared to ethylenediammine (en) which causes a greater magnitude of d orbital splitting.

Hence; the splitting of the d-orbitals is smaller in the [Ni(Cl)6]4- complex than in the [Ni(en)3]2+ complex.
