Answer:

Explanation:

Diethyl malonate is more acidic than monocarbonyl compounds (pKa=13) due to their alpha hydrogens being attached to two carbonyl groups. Thus, the <u>malonic ester is easily converted to its enolate ion by reaction with sodium ethoxide in ethanol</u>. The product of the alkylation of the malonic ester leaves a <u>hydrogen atom acid in an alpha position</u>, so the alkylation process can be repeated a second time to produce a dialkylated malonic ester.

In this case, when urea is treated with diethyl malonate in the presence of sodium ethoxide base,<u> the second alkylation step occurs intramolecularly</u> to generate a cyclic product, barbituric acid.

If a 0.10 M solution of a colored substance has a maximum absorbance at 500 nm and an absorbance of 0.26 M at this wavelength, w
Mashcka [7]
Absorbance is related to the concentration of a substance using the Beer-Lambert's Law. According to this law, absorbance is linearly related to concentration. However, this is only true up to a certain concentration depending on the substance. For this case, we assume that the said law is applicable.

A = kC
Using the first conditions, ewe solve for k.
0.26 = k (0.10)
k = 2.6

A = kC
A = 2.6 (0.20) = 0.52

Therefore, the absorbance at a concentration of 0.20 M and wavelength of 500nm is 0.52.

A solution at 25 ∘C has pOH = 10.53. Which of the following statements is or are true? The solution is acidic. The pH of the sol
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The true statements are:

The solution is acidic

The pH of the solution is 14.00 - 10.53.

10^{-10.53}=[OH^-]

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration present in the solution .

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • The pH value more 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is less ,alkaline will be the solution.
  • The pH value less 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is more ,acidic will be the solution.
  • The pH value equal to 7 indicates that the solution is neutral.

The pOH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration present in the solution .

pOH=-\log[OH^-]

The pOH of the solution = 10.53

10.53=-\log[OH^-]

10^{-10.53}=[OH^-]

The pH of the solution = ?

pH+pOH=14

pH=14-pOH=14-10.53=3.47

Here, the pH of the solution is less than 7 which means that solution acidic.

A metal oxide with the formula mo contains 15.44% oxygen. in the box below, type the symbol for the element represented by m.
lana66690 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The element represented by M is Strontium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let us consider the molar mass of metal be 'x'.

The molar mass of MO will be = Molar mass of oxygen + Molar mass of metal = (16 + x)g/mol

It is given in the question that 15.44% of oxygen is present in metal oxide. So, the equation becomes:

\frac{15.44}{100}\times (x+16)=16g/mol\\\\(x+16)=\frac{16g/mol\times 100}{15.44}\\\\x=(103.626-16)g/mol\\\\x=87.62g/mol

The metal atom having molar mass as 87.62/mol is Strontium.

Hence, the element represented by M is Strontium.
