What do you think is the primary reason why the Unionid mussel population declined whenever there is a dramatic increase in the

Zebra mussel population?
Chemistry

sertanlavr [38]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When the Zebra arrived they ate all the food so the Unionid mussels declined as they died from the lack of food. Causing the Zebra Zebra numbers to increase and Unionid numbers to decline.

2.Which of the alcohols listed below would you expect to react most rapidly with PBr3?A)CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OHB)(CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

Explanation:

For this question, we have the following answer options:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

B) (CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2CH3

C) (CH3CH2)2CHOHCH3

D) (CH3CH2)3COH

E) (CH3CH2)2C(CH3)OH

We have to remember the<u> reaction mechanism</u> of the substitution reaction with PBr_3. <em>The idea is to generate a better leaving group in order to add a "Br" atom.</em>

The PBr_3 attacks the "OH" generation new a bond to P (O-P bonds are very strong), due to this new bond we will have a better leaving group that can remove the oxygen an allow the attack of the Br atom to generating a new C-Br bond. This is made by an <u>Sn2 reaction</u>. Therefore we will have a faster reaction with <u>primary substrates</u>. In this case, the only primary substrate is molecule A. So, <em>"CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH"</em> will react faster.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

50.0 mL of 0.200 M HNO2 is titrated to its equivalence point with 1.00 M NaOH. What is the pH at the equivalence point?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

8.279

Explanation:

The pH can be determined by hydrolysis of a conjugate base of weak acid at the equivalence point.

At the equivalence point, we have

$n_{NaOH}=n_{HNO_2}$

           = 25.00 x 0.200

           = 5.00 m-mol

           = 0.005 mol

Volume of the base that is added to reach the equivalence point is

$\frac{0.005}{1.00} \times 1000= 5.00 \ mL$

Number of moles of $NO^-_{2}=n_{HNO_2}$

                                           = 0.005 mol

Volume at the equivalence point is 25 + 5 = 30.00 mL

Therefore, concentration of $NO^-_{2}= \frac{5}{30}$

                                                        = 0.167 M

Now the ICE table :

            $NO^-_2 + H_2O \rightarrow HNO_3 + OH^-$

I (M)       0.167                   0            0

C (M)         -x                      +x          +x

E (M)      0.167-x                  x           x

Now, the value of the base dissociation constant is ,

$K_w=K_a \times K_b$            $(K_w \text{ is the ionic product of water })$

$K_b =\frac{K_w}{K_a}$

$K_b =\frac{1 \times 10^{-14}}{4.6 \times 10^{-4}}$

    = $2.174 \times 10^{-11}$

Base ionization constant, $K_b = \frac{\left[HNO_2\right] \left[OH^- \right]}{\left[NO^-_2 \right]}$

$2.174 \times 10^{-11}=\frac{x^2}{0.167 -x}$

$x= 1.9054 \times 10^{-6}$

So, $[OH^-]=1.9054 \times 10^{-6 } \ M$

pOH =- $\log[OH^-]$

       = $- \log(1.9054 \times 10^{-6} \ M)$

        =5.72

Now, since pH + pOH = 14

           pH = 14.00 - 5.72

                = 8.279

Therefore the ph is 8.279 at the end of the titration.
