I believe this question has five choices available:

 

>an SN2 process has happened with reversal of configuration

>racemization followed by an S N 2 reaction

>an SN1 process has occurred resulting in reversal of configuration

>an SN1 reaction has taken place due to the formation of a carbocation

>an SN1 event followed by an S N 2 “backside” attack

 

 

 

The correct choice is:

an SN1 reaction has occurred due to carbocation formation

A sample of chlorine gas is held at a pressure of 1023.6 Pa. When the pressure is decreased to 811.4 Pa the volume is 25.6 L. Wh
eduard [2645]

Response:

V1 = 20.3L

Clarification:

P2 = 811.4Pa

V2 = 25.6L

P1 = 1023.6Pa

V1 =?

To answer this query, we will utilize Boyle's law, which states that the volume of a gas at constant temperature is inversely related to its pressure.

In mathematical terms,

V = k / P, where k = PV

The relationship can be defined as P1 × V1 = P2 × V2 = P3 × V3 =......=Pn × Vn

This simplifies to P1 × V1 = P2 × V2

Let’s rearrange for V1

V1 = (P2 × V2) / P1

Substituting values gives

V1 = (811.4 × 25.6) / 1023.6Pa

So, V1 = 20771.84 / 1023.6

This results in V1 = 20.29L, rounded to 20.3L

An atom of beryllium (m = 8.00 u) splits into two atoms of helium (m = 4.00 u) with the release of 92.2 kev of energy. if the or
VMariaS [2860]
The energy released results in a kinetic energy of 92.2 keV for the products. We should convert keV into Joules, noting that 1 keV equals a kiloelectron volt. The required conversion is: 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ <span>joule = 1 eV

Kinetic energy = 92.2 keV * (1,000 eV/1 keV) * (</span>1.602×10⁻¹⁹ joule/1 eV) = 5.76×10²³ Joules

Next, we can determine the velocity of each He atom from the kinetic energy:
KE = 1/2*mv²
5.76×10²³ Joules = 1/2*(4)(v²)
This solves to give us: v = 5.367×10¹¹ m/s

In 2021, you were given a 100. g wine sample to verify its age. Using tritium dating you observe that the sample has 0.688 decay
lorasvet [2668]

Answer:

1984

Explanation:

Utilizing the equation;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (Ao/A)

Where;

t1/2 = half-life of the radioactive isotope

t= age of the wine

Ao= initial activity of the wine

A= activity at time = t

Substituting values, we have 0.693/12.3 = 2.303/t log (5.5/0.688)

0.693/12.3 = 2.079/t

0.056 = 2.079/t

t= 2.079/0.056

t= 37 years

VMariaS [2860]

Answer:

m_{Mg}=30.8mgMg

Explanation:

Greetings,

According to the provided chemical equation, the production of 31.2 mL of hydrogen allows one to calculate its moles using the ideal gas equation as detailed below:

n_{H_2}=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{754torr*\frac{1atm}{760torr}*0.0312L}{0.082 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*298.15K}=1.27x10^{-3}molH_2

Since the ratio of hydrogen to magnesium is 1:1, its milligrams are derived through the following proportional factor calculation:

m_{Mg}=1.27x10^{-3}molH_2*\frac{1molMg}{1molH_2}*\frac{24.305gMg}{1molMg}*\frac{1000mgMg}{1gMg}\\m_{Mg}=30.8mgMg

Regards.

What is the percentage by mass of solution formed by dissolving 36.0 grams of HCl in 98.0 grams of water?
eduard [2645]
Convert HCl and H2O to moles.

36.0 g of HCl = 0.987 moles HCl

98.0 g of H2O = 5.44 moles H2O

Based on the stoichiometric ratio for HCl,
there are 0.987 moles of H and 0.987 moles of Cl.

For H₂O, according to the stoichiometric ratio, you have 10.88 moles of H and 5.44 moles of O.

Combining them:
11.867 moles H
0.987 moles Cl
5.44 moles O

Revert the moles back to grams, then divide by the total mass and multiply by 100 for the percentage by mass.

11.867 moles H = 11.96 g H
0.987 moles Cl = 34.99 g Cl
5.44 moles O = 87.03 g O

11.96/(36.0+98.0)(100) = 8.93% for H
34.99/(36.0+98.0)(100) = 26.11% for Cl
87.03/(36.0+98.0)(100) = 64.96% for O.
