Rank the following compounds in order of reactivity toward nitration with HNO3:_______. thiophene, benzene, 3-methylthiophene, a

nd 2-methylfuran.

Answer:

3-methylthiophene > thiophene > benzene > 2-methylfuran

Explanation:

Primarily, five membered heterocyclic aromatic rings undergo nitration at carbon-2. This is because, nitration at carbon-2 leads to the formation of three resonance structures while attack at carbon-3 yields only two resonance structures, hence it is less stabilized.

The presence of a methyl group which donates electrons promotes the stabilization of the cation formed in the nitration of 3-methylthiophene.

2-methylfuran is the least reactive towards nitration because the 2-position has been blocked by a methyl group.

The radius of a potassium atom is 231 pm. How many potassium atoms would have to be laid side by side to span a distance of 4.77
Softa [21]
To determine the number of potassium laid side by side by a given distance, we simply divide the total distance to the diameter of each atom. The diameter is twice the radius of the atom. We calculate as follows:

number of atoms = 4770 / 231x10^-12 = 2.06x10^13 atoms

How many simple distillation columns are required to purify a stream containing five components into five 'pure"products? Sketch
Nitella [24]

Answer: one simple distillation column is required to separate the stream into five pure products. With four different flat bottom flask, for collection of the distilled products

Explanation: simple distillation works with the difference in boiling points of the liquid to be separated. For the separation of five different constituent to be possible, we have to know the boiling points of the constituents.

For your understanding, let's define constituents in the liquid to be A, B, C, D, E. And the boiling points increases respectively. Start by heating the liquid to the boiling point of A to extract A. After a while check if the constituents A is still dropping in the flat bottom flask, if it has stopped dropping, it simply means that we have extracted all A constituents in the liquid, label the Flask A. Get another flask to extract constituent B.

Heat the mixture to the boiling point of B, after a while check if constituent B is still dropping in the flat bottom flask, if it has stopped dropping,it means that we have extracted all B constituent in the liquid, label the Flask B. Get another flask for C.

Repeat the same process for C and D.

After Extracting D we don't need to distillate E because we already have a pure form of E inside to the conical flask.

2 attempts left select the single best answer. The radii of the lithium and magnesium ions are 76 pm and 72 pm, respectively. Wh
Lina20 [59]

The ionic character of any compound depend on the lattice energy as well as the electronegativity of element present in that compound.

More would be the lattice energy more would be ionic nature of that compound.

The lattice energy of any compound is inversely proportional to the ionic radii cation and anion.

In given case the ionic radii of oxide in both oxides would be equal therefore the lattice energy only depend on the ionic radii of cation.

Lattice energy (U)     =   \frac{1}{Ionic radii}

As the radii of Magnesium less then radii of lithium therefore lattice energy of Magnesium oxide would be more than lithium oxide.

Hence, MgO would be more ionic in nature than Li_{2}O
