Accept a pair of nonbonding electrons,a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor. A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor.

Calculate ΔH o rxn for the following: CH4(g) + Cl2(g) → CCl4(l) + HCl(g)[unbalanced] ΔH o f [CH4(g)] = −74.87 kJ/mol ΔH o f [CCl

anzhelika [568]

Answer: ΔH for the reaction is -277.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$CH_4(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow CCl_4(l)+HCl(g)$

The expression for enthalpy change is,

$\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H(products)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H(reactant)]$

$\Delta H=[(n_{CCl_4}\times \Delta H_{CCl_4})+(n_{HCl}\times B.E_{HCl}) ]-[(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})+n_{Cl_2}\times \Delta H_{Cl_2}]$

where,

n = number of moles

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$\Delta H=[(1\times -139)+(1\times -92.31) ]-[(1\times -74.87)+(1\times 121.0]$

$\Delta H=-277.4kJ$

Therefore, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, -277.4 kJ

Proton-alpha: "One time I lived in an environment where next door lived identical twins, Proton-beta-1 and Proton-beta-2. Boy, d

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

C) What is the multiplicity of Proton-alpha's signal in this scenario when there are 2 identical protons "next door"?

Based on n+1 rule. Here n=2 (identical beta protons).

2+1=3

So the multiplicity of alpha proton is triplet, .

D) For molecules containing only single bonds (we'll discuss the influence of double bonds in a future lecture), what is the adjective that describes the position of protons that split a "next door neighbor's" signal?

The meaning of the adjective is this: the multiplicity of beta protons is singlet only (no spliting) in absence of alpha proton . But beta protons splits as doublet (n=1) in the presence of alpha proton,

E) How many bonds connect these "splitting next door neighbors"?

There are 3 bonds in between alpha and beta protons in a molecule.

F) What is the multiplicity of the Proton-betas' signal?

Following the n+1 rule, here n=1 (1 alpha proton) so 1+1=2. Hence it is a doublet.
