Two types of alcohols namely as methylcyclohexanol and 2-methyl-2-hexanol were subjected to dehydration reaction and yield a mixture of two isomeric alkenes. Proposed a chemical reaction of both alcohols and determine which one is the major product. Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

a) Methylcyclohexanol = 1-methylcyclohex-1-ene and methylenecyclohexane

b) 2-methyl-2-hexanol = 2-methylhex-1-ene and 2-methylhex-2-ene

Explanation:

We have to remember that the dehydration of alcohols follows the Zaitsev rule. So, the most substituted alkene would be the major product for both molecules

In the case of methylcyclohexanol we have several options to put the double bond. Inside of the cyclic structure (1-methylcyclohex-1-ene) or between the cyclic structure and the methyl group (methylenecyclohexane). The most substituted one is 1-methylcyclohex-1-ene, so this is our major product.

In the case of 2-methyl-2-hexanol we have again several options for the double bond. Between the tertiary carbon (the carbon that holds the "OH" group) and the carbon in the left (2-methylhex-2-ene). The other option is to put the double between the tertiary carbon the carbon in the right (2-methylhex-1-ene). The most substituted one is 2-methylhex-2-ene, so this is our major product.

A person has a height of 65 inches
You want to find out the height of
that person in centimeters. Which
unit conversion would you use?

Answers

Answer:

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

Explanation:

A conversion factor or unit conversion is used to change the units only without affecting the value.

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

Given, height = 65 inches

So, the height of  that person in centimeters = 65 x 2.54

                                                                         = 165.1 cm    

Hence, the person's height in centimeters will be 165.1 cm.

Maybelline Cousteau’s backup oxygen tank reads 650 torr while on her boat, where the temperature is 27 degrees C. When she dives down to the bottom of an unexplored methane lake on a recently-discovered moon of Neptune, the temperature will drop down to –183 degrees C. What will the pressure in her backup tank be at that temperature?

Answers

Answer: 180torr

Explanation:

Using P1VI/T1= P2V2/T2

where

p1= 650 torr

p2=??

T1= 27°C =  27°C + 273= 300K

T2= -183°C= -183°C +273=90K

V1= V2 ie volume is constant

SOLUTION

 1 torr= 1mmHg

P1VI/T1= P2V2/T2, where V1=V2

= P1/TI= P2/T2

600/300=P2/90

P2= 600X90/300= 180 torr

A flexible container at an initial volume of 6.13 L contains 6.51 mol of gas. More gas is then added to the container until it reaches a final volume of 13.3 L. Assuming the pressure and temperature of the gas remain constant, calculate the number of moles of gas added to the container.

Answers

Answer:

7.61 moles

Explanation:

Hello, we'll first of all get the required data from the question to enable us find the best approach to the question.

Data;

Initial volume (V1) = 6.13L

Initial number of moles (n1) = 6.51mol

Final volume (V2) = 13.3L

Final number of moles = ?

To solve this question, we'll use Avogadro's law which states that the number of moles of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its volume provided that temperature and pressure remains constant.

Mathematically,

n = kV, k = n / V

n1 / V1 = n2 / V2 = n3 / V3 =..........=Nx / Vx

n1 / V1 = n2 / V2

Substitute the values into the above equation

6.51 / 6.13 = n2 / 13.3

n2 = (6.51 × 13.3) / 6.13

n2 = 14.12moles

The final mole of the gas is equal to 14.12mol

To find the number of moles added to the system, we'll subtract the initial mole from the final mole.

Number of moles added = n2 - n1

Number of moles added = 14.12 - 6.51

Number of moles added = 7.61moles

Therefore, 7.61 moles of the gas was added into the system

A 10.17-g sample of solid sodium bicarbonate (the active ingredient in baking soda) completely decomposes into solid sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide gas when heated. After the sodium hydroxide cools, it has a mass of 4.84 g. According to the law of conservation of mass, what mass of carbon dioxide must have been formed?

Answers

Answer:

5.33 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the balanced reaction for the complete decomposition of solid sodium bicarbonate to form solid sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide gas when heated.

NaHCO₃(s) → NaOH(s) + CO₂(g)

According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, the sum of the masses of the reactants is equal to the sum of the masses of the products. Then,

m(NaHCO₃) = m(NaOH) + m(CO₂)

m(CO₂) = m(NaHCO₃) - m(NaOH)

m(CO₂) = 10.17 g - 4.84 g

m(CO₂) = 5.33 g

1 only
1 and 2
1 and 3
1, 2 and 3

Answers

Answer:

1, 2 and 3

Explanation:

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons , is known as covalent bonding.

A covalent bond involves as stated above, the mutual sharing of one or more electron pairs of between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions. Shared electrons located in the space between the two nuclei are called bonding electrons. The bonded pair is the binding factor that holds the two atomic nuclei together in molecular units.

A covalent bond is commonly formed between two nonmetals. As we can see in the question; 1, 2 and 3 represents bonds formed between two nonmetallic elements. Hence they are rightly classified as molecular or covalent bonds.

Isomers of hydrocarbons have the same _______formula but different ____formula.

Answers

Answer:

Isomers of hydrocarbons have the molecular formula but structural formula.

Explanation:

Molecules with the same structural formula, but different molecular geometries (spatial arrangement) are called isomers. These differences in the arrangement of the various atoms confer certain differences in chemical properties to the resulting hydrocarbons, even though their chemical composition is the same. There are two types of isomers:

Structural isomers: Here, each atom are connected or bonded in different ways, hence structural isomers may contain different functional groups or pattern of bonding. structural isomers are further divided into: chain, position, and functional group isomers.

Stereoisomers: Here, the connections of the atoms are the same, but the difference is in their orientation in space

Calculate the theoretical yield in moles of magnesium chloride when 37 grams of Mg(s) react with 38 grams of HCl(aq).Write the answer using 2 decimal places and do not use scientific notation.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.52 moles.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, 37 grams of magnesium reacts with 38 grams of HCl to produce MgCl2 or magnesium chloride. The reaction is:  

Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) ⇒ MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)

There is a need to find the theoretical yield in moles of MgCl2. The formula for calculating the no. or moles is mass/molar mass. Therefore, moles of magnesium is 37/24 = 1.54 and moles of HCl will be 38/36.5 = 1.04.  

From the reaction it is clear that one mole of magnesium reacts with two moles of HCl, as lesser quantity of HCl is present in the given case, therefore, HCl will be the limiting reagent.

Now theoretical moles of magnesium chloride will be,  

= moles of HCl / 2

= 1.04 / 2  

= 0.52 moles

Copper metal of 1.23 g sample is reacted completely with chlorine gas to produce
2.61 g of copper chloride. Determine the empirical formula of the compound?​

Answers

Answer: The empirical formula of the compound is [tex]CuCl_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Mass of Copper (Cu) = 1.23 g

Mass of Chlorine (Cl)  = Mass of copper chloride - mass of copper = (2.61 - 1.23) g = 1.38 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles

Moles of Cu =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of Cu}}{\text{ molar mass of Cu}}= \frac{1.23g}{63.5g/mole}=0.019moles[/tex]

Moles of Cl =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac{1.38g}{35.5g/mole}=0.038moles[/tex]

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Cu =[tex]\frac{0.019}{0.019}=1[/tex]

For Cl = [tex]\frac{0.038}{0.019}=2[/tex]

The ratio of Cu : Cl = 1 : 2

Hence the empirical formula is [tex]CuCl_2[/tex]

A mixture of krypton and argon gases, at a total pressure of 733 mm Hg, contains 3.97 grams of krypton and 6.34 grams of argon. What is the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture?

Answers

Answer:

Partial pressure of krypton= 167.12 mmHg

Partial pressure of argon = 565.88 mmHg

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gasses is equal to the total pressure multiplied (Pt) by the mole fraction of the gas (X):

P= X Pt

The total pressure is Pt= 733 mmHg

The mole fraction is given by the following:

X = number of moles of gas/ total number of moles

For krypton (Kr) , the molecular weight is 83.8 g/mol and we calculate the number of moles by dividing the mass into the molecular weight as follows:

moles of Kr = 3.97 g/(83.8 g/mol)= 0.047 moles

For argon (Ar), the molesular weight is 39.9 g/mol, so we calculate the number of moles as follows:

moles of Ar = 6.34 g/(39.9 g/mol)= 0.159

Now, we calculate the total number of moles (nt):

nt= moles of Kr + moles of Ar = 0.047 moles + 0.159 moles = 0.206 moles

The mole fraction of each gas is now calculated:

X(Kr)= moles of Kr/nt = 0.047 moles/0.206 = 0.228

X(Ar)= moles of Ar/nt = 0.159 moles/0.206 = 0.772

Finally, with the mole fractions and the total pressure we calculate the partial pressure of each gas as follows:

P(Kr) = X(Kr) x Pt = 0.228 x 733 mmHg= 167.12 mmHg

P(Ar) = X(Ar) x Pt = 0.772 x 733 mmHg= 565.88 mmHg

This increase in blood pHpH due to hyperventilation disrupts O2O2 transport by causing the deprotonation of various residues of the hemoglobin protein. With less O2O2 reaching the brain, an individual who is hyperventilating may faint. Because the brain needs O2O2 to produce ATP, the brain temporarily shuts down the one function that demands the most ATP—consciousness. Shutting down consciousness conserves energy and allows the brain to devote its resources to maintaining essential life support functions, such as breathing. When O2O2 transport regains its efficiency, the individual regains consciousness. How would rebreathing exhaled air from a paper bag prevent an individual who is hyperventilating from fainting?

Answers

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which has been provided in the attachment.

Answer:

1. sudden decrease

2. Respiratory alkalosis

Explanation:

Hyperventilation is a condition caused by the excess removal of the CO₂ from the blood which leads to the decrease in the pCO₂ of the arteries.

This decrease can cause fainting and death of the individual due to the malfunctioning of the body parts, especially the brain.

The decrease in the CO₂ amount of the blood causes the formation of bicarbonate and H⁺ ions which leads to respiratory alkalosis.

Therefore the selected options are correct.
