Answer: H3N¬CH2¬COO will partition around the ionic head of the micelles

H3N¬(CH2)11¬COO will partition around the hydrophobic tail

Explanation:

The zwitterionic amino acid containing only one carbon atom between the ions will be better able to interact with the ionic head which is hydrophillic. The long chain amino acid will be able to efficiently interact with the hydrocarbon tail of the micelles which is hydrophobic in nature. This is because of the intervening long chain occurring between the positive and negative terminals of the molecule.

Tetraphosphorus Decaoxide has a molecular formula of P4O10, all else are known. Therefore the balanced chemical equation would be:

4PH3 + 8O2 --> 6H2O + P4O10

Taking into account the phases:

4PH3(g) + 8O2(g) --> 6H2O(g) + P4O10(s)

7nadin3 [17]

It represents a decomposition reaction because one reactant breaks apart and forms two products.

Explanation:

The type of chemical reaction depicted by Jane represents a decomposition reaction because on reactant breaks apart and forms two products.

In this reaction XY breaks apart to form X and Y. This is a decomposition reaction.

XY → X + Y

Decomposition or cracking is the formation of two or more products from a single reactant.
The break down of a compound into individual atoms or molecules falls into this category.
The extreme instability of a compound drives such a reaction.
The products is usually stable or it can dissociate further till it is stable.

Determine Z and V for steam at 250°C and 1800 kPa by the following: (a) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.38)] with the foll

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

the temperature $T_1$ = 250 °C= ( 250+ 273.15 ) K = 523.15 K

Pressure = 1800 kPa

The truncated viral equation is expressed as:

$\frac{PV}{RT} = 1 + \frac{B}{V} + \frac{C}{V^2}$

where; B = - $152.5 \ cm^3 /mol$ C = -5800 $cm^6/mol^2$

R = 8.314 × 10³ cm³ kPa. K⁻¹.mol⁻¹

Plugging all our values; we have

$\frac{1800*V}{8.314*10^3*523.15} = 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

$4.138*10^{-4} \ V= 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

Multiplying through with V² ; we have

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 = V^2 - 152.5 V - 5800 = 0$

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 - V^2 + 152.5 V + 5800 = 0$

V = 2250.06 cm³ mol⁻¹

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*2250.06}{8.314*10^3*523.15}$

Z = 0.931

b) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.36)], with a value of B from the generalized Pitzer correlation [Eqs. (3.58)–(3.62)].

The generalized Pitzer correlation is :

$T_c = 647.1 \ K \\ \\ P_c = 22055 \ kPa \\ \\ \omega = 0.345$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{T}{T_c}$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{523.15}{647.1}$

$T__{\gamma}} = 0.808$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{P}{P_c}$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{1800}{22055}$

$P__{\gamma}} = 0.0816$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{T__{\gamma}}^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{0.808^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.51$

$B_1 = 0.139 - \frac{0.172}{T__{\gamma}}^{ \ 4.2}}$

$B_1 = -0.282$

The compressibility is calculated as:

$Z = 1+ (B_o + \omega B_1 ) \frac{P__{\gamma}}{T__{\gamma}}$

$Z = 1+ (-0.51 +(0.345* - 0.282) ) \frac{0.0816}{0.808}$

Z = 0.9386

$V= \frac{ZRT}{P}$

$V= \frac{0.9386*8.314*10^3*523.15}{1800}$

V = 2268.01 cm³ mol⁻¹

c) From the steam tables (App. E).

At $T_1 = 523.15 \ K \ and \ P = 1800 \ k Pa$

V = 0.1249 m³/ kg

M (molecular weight) = 18.015 gm/mol

V = 0.1249 × 10³ × 18.015

V = 2250.07 cm³/mol⁻¹

R = 729.77 J/kg.K

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*10^3 *0.1249}{729.77*523.15}$

Z = 0.588

The concept of resonance describes molecular structures Question 17 options: that have several different geometric arrangements.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

that are formed from hybridized orbitals

Explanation:

The chemical concept of resonance is when a change in the position of the electrons occurs, without changing the position of the atoms.

The structure obtained in the resonance will not be any of the previous ones, but a hybrid of resonance between those structures.
