λmax for the π → π* transition in ethylene is 170 nm. Is the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene greater than or less than t

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

Explanation:

The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:

For ethylene

E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J

For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J

Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

Equal amounts of N2 and O2 are added, under certain conditions, to a closed container. Which changes occur in the reverse reacti

geniusboy [140]

1) The forward reaction is N2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2NO

(that reaction requires special contitions because at normal pressures and temperatures N2 and O2 do not react to form another compound.

2) The equiblibrium equation is

N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇄ 2NO

3) Then, the reverse reaction is

2NO → N2(g) + O2(g)

Answer: 2NO → N2(g) + O2(g)

Chlorine can be prepared in the laboratory by the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid. HCl(aq), as described by

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

0.88 g

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation to calculate the moles of chlorine gas produced as:-

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 805 Torr

V = Volume of the gas = 235 mL = 0.235 L

T = Temperature of the gas = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

R = Gas constant = $62.3637\text{torr}mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of chlorine gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$805torr\times 0.235L=n\times 62.3637\text{ torrHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{805\times 0.235}{62.3637\times 298}=0.01017\ mol$

According to the reaction:-

$MnO_2+4HCl\rightarrow MnCl_2+2H_2O+Cl_2$

1 mole of chlorine gas is produced when 1 mole of manganese dioxide undergoes reaction.

So,

0.01017 mole of chlorine gas is produced when 0.01017 mole of manganese dioxide undergoes reaction.

Moles of $MnO_2$ = 0.01017 moles

Molar mass of $MnO_2$ = 86.93685 g/mol

So,

$Mass=Moles\times Molar\ mass$

Applying values, we get that:-

$Mass=0.01017moles \times 86.93685\ g/mol=0.88\ g$

<u>0.88 g of $MnO_2(s)$ should be added to excess HCl (aq) to obtain 235 mL of $Cl_2(g)$ at 25 degrees C and 805 Torr.</u>

During electrophilic aromatic substitution, a resonance-stabilized cation intermediate is formed. Groups, already present on the

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Aromatic compounds undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions in which the aromatic ring is maintained.

Substituted benzenes may be more or less reactive towards electrophilic aromatic substitution than benzene depending on the nature of the substituent present in the ring.

Substituents that activate the ring towards electrophilic substitution such as -OCH3 are ortho-para directing.

The major products of the bromination of anisole are p-bromoanisole and o-bromoanisole. The resonance structures leading to these products are shown in the image attached.
