Explanation:

This whole process is known as oxymercuration and demercuration.

First step is mercuration and second step is demercuration.

it is an electrophilic addition reaction and generally we take water as a solvent but here methnaol is given so instead of attacking water , methanol will attack.

In this reaction first alkene reacts with mercuric acetate (AcO–Hg–OAc)

and it formed ring with alkene because pi electron of alkene share it with mercuric acetate and there is no formation of carbocation and hence there will not be any rearrangement possible.

The unit cell for cr2o3 has hexagonal symmetry with lattice parameters a = 0.4961 nm and c = 1.360 nm. If the density of this ma

To calculate the packing factor, first calculate the area and volume of unit cell.

Area is calculated as:

$A=6R^{2}\sqrt{3}$

Here, R is radius and is related to a as follows:

$R=\frac{a}{2}$

Putting the value in expression for area,

$A=6(\frac{a}{2})^{2}\sqrt{3}=1.5a^{2}\sqrt{3}$

The value of a is 0.4961 nm

Since, $1 nm=10^{-7}cm$

Thus, $0.4961 nm=4.961\times 10^{-8} cm$

Putting the value,

$Area=1.5(4.961\times 10^{-8}cm)^{2}\sqrt{3}=6.39\times 10^{-15}cm^{2}$

Now, volume can be calculated as follows:

$V=Area\times c$

The value of c is 1.360 nm or $1.360\times 10^{-7} cm$

Putting the value,

$V=(6.39\times 10^{-15}cm^{2})\times (1.360\times 10^{-7} cm)=8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}$

now, number of atom in unit cell can be calculated by using the following formula:

$n=\frac{\rho N_{A}V_{c}}{A}$

Here, A is atomic mass of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is 151.99 g/mol.

Putting all the values,

$n=\frac{(5.22 g/cm^{3})(6.023\times 10^{23} mol^{-1})(8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3})}{(151.99 g/mol)}\approx 18$

Thus, there will be 18 $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ units in 1 unit cell.

Since, there are 2 Cr atoms and 3 oxygen atoms thus, units of chromium and oxygen will be 2×18=36 and 3×18=54 respectively.

The atomic radii of $Cr^{3+}$ and $O^{2-}$ is 62 pm and 140 pm respectively.

Converting them into cm:

$1 pm=10^{-10}cm$

Thus,

$r_{Cr^{3+}}=6.2\times 10^{-9}cm$

and,

$r_{O^{2-}}=1.4\times 10^{-8}cm$

Volume of sphere will be sum of volume of total number of cations and anions thus,

$V_{S}=V_{Cr^{3+}}+V_{O^{2-}}$

Since, volume of sphere is $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$ ,

$V_{S}=36\left ( \frac{4}{3}\pi (r_{Cr^{3+})^{3}} \right )+54\left ( \frac{4}{3}\pi (r_{O^{2-})^{3}} \right )$

Putting the values,

$V_{S}=36\left ( \frac{4}{3}(3.14) (6.2\times 10^{-9} cm)^{3}} \right )+54\left ( \frac{4}{3}(3.14) (1.4\times 10^{-8} cm)^{3}} \right )=6.6\times 10^{-22}\times 10^{-8}cm^{3}$

The atomic packing factor is ratio of volume of sphere and volume of crystal, thus,

$packing factor=\frac{V_{S}}{V_{C}}=\frac{6.6\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}}{8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}}=0.758$

Thus, atomic packing factor is 0.758.

How many grams of Boron can be obtained from 234 grams of B2O3?

Xelga [282]

Answer:

72.67g of B

Explanation:

The reaction of B₂O₃ to produce boron (B), is:

B₂O₃ → 3/2O₂ + 2B

<em>That means B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of boron</em>

Molar mass of B₂O₃ is 69.62g/mol. 234g of B₂O₃ contains:

234g B₂O₃ ₓ (1mol / 69.62g) = 3.361 moles of B₂O₃.

As 1 mole of B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of B, Moles of B that can be produced from B₂O₃ is:

3.361mol B₂O₃ ₓ 2 = <em>6.722 moles of B</em>.

As molar mass of B is 10.811g/mol. Thus mass of B that can be produced is:

6.722mol B ₓ (10.811g / mol) = <em>72.67g of B</em>

Determine the number of moles in 4.21 x 10^23 molecules of CaCl2

Paha777 [63]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.699 mole CaCl₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To get the number of moles we use the Avogadro's number.

Avogadro's number is 6.022 x 10^23.

But, 1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 x 10^23 molecules

In this case;

we are given 4.21 × 10^23 molecules of CaCl₂

Therefore, to get the number of moles

Moles = Number of molecules ÷ Avogadro's constant

= 4.21 × 10^23 molecules ÷ 6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mole

= 0.699 mole CaCl₂

Hence, the number of moles is 0.699 mole of CaCl₂

What is the reaction energy Q of this reaction? Use c2=931.5MeV/u. Express your answer in millions of electron volts to three si

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Energy= 2.7758 × 10^-11 J ;

71.112×10^-6 kJ.

Mass defect in Kilogram= 3.0885×10^-28 kg.

That is; 3.1×10^-28 kg(to two significant figure).

Explanation:

(Note: Check equation of reaction in the attached file/picture).

STEP ONE: we have to calculate the Mass defect.

Mass defect= Mass of reactants -- Mass of products.

Mass of the products: (140.9144+91.9262+3.060) u.

= 235.8666 u.

Mass of reactants: (1.0087+235.0439) u= 236.0526 u.

Therefore, the Mass defect= (236.0526 -- 235.8666) u

= 0.1860 u.

STEP TWO: Converting the Mass defect to energy;

0.18860 × 1.6605 × 10^27 kg

= 3.0885× 10^-28 kg

STEP THREE: Calculating energy released . Recall(from the question) c^2= 931.5 Mev/u. This is also equals to 9×10^16 m/s.

E=Mc^2.

Where E= energy released, c= speed of light, M= Mass.

Slotting in the values;

E= 3.0885×10^-28 kg × 9×10^16 m/s.

E=2.7758 × 10^-11 J.

Know that;( 1g of uranium × 1 mol of uranium ÷ 235.0439 g of uranium) × (6.002×10^23 atom of uranium/ 1 mol of uranium) × 2.7758× 10^-11.

=7.1112×10^-10 J

= 71.112×10^6 kJ.
