Deuterium is the isotope of hydrogen of mass number 2, with a proton and a neutron in its nucleus. The chemistry of deuterium is

nearly identical to the chemistry of hydrogen, except that C−D bond is slightly (5.0KJ/mole) stonger than the C−H bond. Reaction rates tend to be slower if a C−D bond as opposed to a C−H bond is broken in a rate limiting step. This effect on the rate is called a kinetic isotope effect.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

We know that the zero-point-energy of a C-D system is quite lower than the zero point energy of the C-H bond so the C-D bond is stronger.

Kinetic isotope effect refers to the change in the rate of reaction owing to a change of one of the atoms of the reactants by replacing it with one of its isotopes.

Since we know that the C-D bond is stronger than the C-H bond, when we replace hydrogen with deuterium in a reaction's rate determining step we experience a little lag in the rate of reaction. This is referred to as the kinetic isotope effect in physical organic chemistry.

Suppose a salt and a glucose solution are separated by a membrane that is permeable to water but not to the solutes. the nacl so

1)

<span>m(NaCl) = 1.95 g
V(H2O) = 250mL
M(NaCl) = </span><span>58.5 g/mole

Since waters density value is 1g/mL, it can be assumed that volume and mass of water are same values:

</span>V(H2O) = 250ml = 250g = 0.25 kg<span>

</span><span>molality of NaCl:
</span><span>
n(NaCl)=m/M=1.95/58.5= 0.033 mole

</span>molality b(NaCl)=n(NaCl) / V (H2O)= 0.033/0.25 = 0.132 mol/kg
<span>
milimolality of NaOH = 0.132/0,001 = 132 mmole/kg
</span>
milliosmolality of NaOH = milimolality x N of ions formed in dissociation

Since NaCl dissociates into 2 ions in solution:
<span>                                        
</span>milliosmolality of NaOH = 132 x 2 = 264  osmol<span>es/kg
</span>
2)

m(gl) = 9 g
V(H2O) = 250mL
M(NaCl) = 180 g/mole

Since waters density value is 1g/mL, it can be assumed that volume and mass of water are same values:

V(H2O) = 250ml = 250g = 0.25 kg

molality of glucose:

n(gl)=m/M=9/180= 0.05 mole

molality b(gl)=n(gl) / V (H2O)= 0.05/0.25 = 0.2 mol/kg

milimolality of glucose = 0.132/0,001 = 200 mmole/kg

milliosmolality of glucose = milimolality x N of ions formed in dissociation

Since glucose does not dissociate, milimolality and milliosmolality are same:
                                        
milliosmolality of glucose = 200 osmoles/kg

3)

The osmosis represents the diffusion of solvent molecules through a semi-permeable membrane that allows passage solvent molecules but does not to the dissolved substance molecule. The osmosis occurs when the concentrations of the solution on both sides of the membrane are different. Since the semi-permeable membrane only permeates the solvent molecules, but not the particles of the dissolved substance, it occurs the solvent diffusion through the membrane, i.e. the solvent molecules pass through the membrane to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane. Solvents molecules move from the middle with a lower concentration in the middle with a higher concentration of dissolved substances.

In our case, osmosis will occur because the concentration of NaCl solution and the concentration of glucose solution do not have same values. Osmosis will occur in the direction of glucose solution because it has a lower concentration.

How many electrons does the oxygen atom need to become stable?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

2 electrons

Explanation:

Oxygen has 6 valence electrons and to be stable it needs 8. That means it needs 2 more electrons to have a full octet.

What is one advantage of doing a feild experiment instead of a laboratory experiment
Ber [7]

Answer:

  Field experiments can often have the potential to give scientists opportunities that are not possible in a lab setting.

Explanation:

  Having people "act natural" in a lab setting is impossible to truly achieve, as we all know what happens to our mental state and behavior when we are being actively observed. This is also especially helpful when conducting wildlife research, as there are a myriad of different things influencing animal and plant behavior that would be nigh impossible to recreate perfectly in a controlled lab setting.

  Field research can have its disadvantages as well, as it is very hard to only have one thing change (make an independent variable) in a wild environment with ever-changing weather, social effects, etc. Also, you, as the researcher, as causing an impact on the very location that you are observing, which can alter your results in unpredictable ways.

  The thing to remember is that each type of study has its advantages and disadvantages; if they didn't, then we'd all do the same type of research! You have to weigh your research options and figure out which one works best for your situation :)

A sample of gas occupies 10.0 l at 100.0 torr and 27.0
disa [49]
The pressure  of a sample  of a gas if the temperature  is changed  to 127  c  while  the volume  remains  constant   is calculated  using gay lussac law formula

that is P1/T1 = P2/V2
P1 = 100 torr
T1 = 27+273 = 300 k
T2 =127 +273 =400 k
P2=?

by  making P2 the subject of the formula
P2=T2P1/T1

=100  x 400/300 = 133.3 torr

What do Potassium and Krypton have in common and what are their differences based on their location on the periodic table?
andreev551 [17]

Common based on their location in Periodic Table;

Potassium has an atomic number 19. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

                                       1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s¹

And Krypton has an atomic number of 36. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

                                1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶

It is concluded that both Potassium and Krypton has their valence electrons in 4rth shell or they have same Principle Quantum Number.

Difference based on their location in Periodic Table;

As observed in electronic configuration Potassium has one valence electron in its valence shell (i.e. 4s¹) while, Krypton has eight valence electrons in its valence shell (i.e. 4s², 4p⁶). Therefore, they are different in the number of valence electrons.
