I believe this question has the following five choices to choose from:

 

>an SN2 reaction has occurred with inversion of configuration

>racemization followed by an S N 2 attack

>an SN1 reaction has taken over resulting in inversion of configuration

>an SN1 reaction has occurred due to carbocation formation

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

 

 

The correct answer is:

an SN1 reaction has occurred due to carbocation formation

What is the total amount of heat required to completely melt 347 grams of ice at its melting point
jolli1 [7]
In order to calculate the amount of heat energy required to melt 347 grams of ice, we need to will apply the equation:
Q = ml, where m is the mass of substance and l is its latent heat of fusion. For ice, the latent heat of fusion is 334 joules per gram. Therefore:
Q = 347 x 334
Q = 112,558 joules of energy

If the initial concentration of NOBr is 0.0440 M, the concentration of NOBr after 9.0 seconds is ________. If the initial concen
Nikolay [14]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

If the initial concentration of NOBr is 0.0440 M, the concentration of NOBr after 9.0 seconds is ________.

The reaction

2NOBr(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+Br_2(g)

It is a second-order reaction with a rate constant of 0.80 M⁻¹s⁻¹ at 11 °C.

Answer : The concentration of after 9.0 seconds is, 0.00734 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 0.80 M⁻¹s⁻¹

t = time taken  = 142 second

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.0440 M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.80M^{-1}s^{-1}=\frac{1}{142s}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.0440M)}\right)

[A]=0.00734M

Hence, the concentration of after 9.0 seconds is, 0.00734 M

The average adult human burns 2.00x20^3 kcal per day in energy. What is this rate in kJ per hour?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

1.61 × 10⁶ kJ

Explanation:

The human burns energy so as to be healthy.

The amount of energy burnt per day by an adult human is 2 × 20³ kcal per day. Since there is 24 hours in a day, the amount of energy burnt per hour is 2 × 20³ × 24 = 48 × 20³ kcal per hour.

The conversion rate of kcal to kJ is 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ. Therefore converting the kcal per hour to kJ per hour gives:

48 × 20³ × 4.184 = 200.882 × 20³ kJ = 1.61 × 10⁶ kJ

Please help me double-check my answer: Calculate the molarity of an aqueous solution that contains 36.5g KMnO4 and has a total v
Helen [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Molarity = 0.6158, I got the same answer as you.

Explanation:

Data

Molarity = ?

Mass of KMnO₄ = 36.5 g

Total volume = 375 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the Molar mass of KMnO₄

KMnO₄ = (1 x 39.10) + (54.94 x 1) + (16 x 4)

            = 39.10 + 54.94 + 64

            = 158.04 g

2.- Calculate the moles of KMnO₄

                158.04 g of KMnO₄ ------------------- 1 mol

                  36.5 g of KMnO₄ ---------------------  x

                   x = (36.5 x 1) / 158.04

                   x = 0.231 mol

3.- Convert the volume to liters

                  1000 ml -------------------- 1 L

                    375 ml --------------------- x

                     x = (375 x 1)/1000

                    x = 0.375 L

4.- Calculate the Molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

-Substitution

Molarity = 0.231 moles / 0.375 L

Result

Molarity = 0.6158
