What change would you expect on the rate of the reaction of ethanol with 2-iodo-2-methylbutane if the nucleophile concentration

is halved by adding diethyl ether as an inert solvent and the alkyl halide concentration is unchanged
Chemistry

Natalija [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The rate of reaction is unchanged

Explanation:

The rate of reaction of tertiary alkyl halides with a nucleophile is independent of the nucleopohile concentration but depends only on the initial concentration of the alkyl halide since tertiary alkyl halides reacts via SN1 mechanism.

The nucleophile concentration does not come into the rate equation for the reaction hence any change in its concentration is inconsequential in determining the overall rate of reaction, hence the rate of reaction is unchanged when the nucleophile concentration is halved.

It takes 495.0 kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electron from an atom on the surface of sodium metal. How much energy does it ta
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

\lambda=241.9\ nm

Explanation:

The work function of the sodium= 495.0 kJ/mol

It means that  

1 mole of electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

Also,  

1 mole = 6.023\times 10^{23}\ electrons

So,  

6.023\times 10^{23} electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

1 electron can be removed by applying of \frac {495.0}{6.023\times 10^{23}}\ kJ of energy.

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-23}\ kJ

Also,  

1 kJ = 1000 J

So,  

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-20}\ J

Also, E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So,  

79.78\times 10^{-20}=\frac {6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}

\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{82.18\times 10^{-20}}

\lambda=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-20}\times \:82.18}

\lambda=\frac{19.878}{10^6\times \:82.18}

\lambda=2.4188\times 10^{-7}\ m

Also,  

1 m = 10⁻⁹ nm

So,  

\lambda=241.9\ nm

Which statement describes a reason to consider air a mixture? A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements. B) The comp
umka21 [38]

The correct answer is - A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements.

With the statement ''the major constituents of air are gaseous elements'' we can easily conclude that the air is a mixture. The reason for that is that we have a plural usage of the word element, elements, which mean that there are multiple elements that make up the air.

The air is indeed predominantly a mixture of gaseous elements. The most abundant gas in the air being the nitrogen with 78.9%, oxygen with 20.95%, argon 0.93%, and carbon dioxide 0.04%, with lesser amounts of other gases also be present in it. The water vapor is also present in the air, though it is variable, being around 1% at sea level, but only 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.
