Answer:
Growth rate
Explanation:
The responding variable, also known as the DEPENDENT VARIABLE, is the variable that responds to changes or manipulations made to another variable (independent or manipulable variable) in the experiment. It is the measured variable of an experiment.
According to the hypothesis provided for this investigation, the scientist wants to determine if the amount of fertilizer plants of the same species receive will affect their growth rate when planted in the same condition. This shows that the independent variable is the amount of fertilizer to be used while the RESPONDING VARIABLE OR DEPENDENT VARIABLE is the GROWTH RATE OF THE PLANTS because it responds to the amount of fertilizer.
Answer:
The reactive nucleophile is Ketone.
Explanation:
In organic chemistry, The process of acid - catalyzed aldol condensation starts from when ketone (or any aldehyde) is converted to an -enol, after which it attacks another ketone/aldehyde that has already been activated by parbonyl oxygen protonation.
The process of this is that first of all the ketone undergoes tautomerization to form -enol. Thereafter, the other carbonyl will undergo protonation which makes the carbon activated towards attack. Now, the nucleophilic enol will be added to the carbonyl in a [1,2]-addition reaction and we will now use deprotonation to obtain the neutral Aldol product.
Now, since only the ketone can produce an -enol, thus it is the nucleophile as aldehydes are better electrophiles
moles NaOH = c · V = 0.2432 mmol/mL · 24.75 mL = 6.0192 mmol
moles H2SO4 = 6.0192 mmol NaOH · 1 mmol H2SO4 / 2 mmol NaOH = 3.0096 mmol
Hence
[H2SO4]= n/V = 3.0096 mmol / 38.94 mL = 0.07729 M
The answer to this question is [H2SO4] = 0.07729 M
