"why are primary and secondary alcohols relatively easy to oxidize but tertiary alcohols resist oxidation"

Physics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]2 years ago

<span>Oxidation happens when a molecule loses a hydrogen and gains an oxygen. Primary and secondary alcohols have hydrogens to lose, so they oxidize easily. They are also capable of gaining oxygen. Tetriary alcohols are unable to lose hydrogens. They are also unable to gain oxygen.</span>

Bess [88]

Find Displacement and Distance

displacement ...

north is 700+400+100 =1200m n

south=1200m

1200-1200=0


east is 300+300=600m

west is 600m

600-600=0

back at dtart. displ zero


distance is 700+ 300m + 400 m + 600m + 1200m + 300m + 100m  = 3600m

Two charges, qA and qB, are separated by a distance, d, and exert a force, F, on each other. Analyze Coulomb's law and answer th
maria [59]

Answer: a. F doubled

b. F reduced by one-quarter i.e

1/4*(F)

c. 1/9*(F)

d. F increased by a factor of 4 i.e 4*F

e. F reduces 3/4*(F)

Explanation: Coulombs law states the force F of attraction/repulsion experience by two charges qA and qB is directly proportional to thier product and inversely proportional to the square of distance d between them. That is

F = k*(qA*qB)/d²

a. If qA is doubled therefore the force is doubled since they are directly proportional.

b. If qA and qB are half, that means thier new product would be qA/2)*qB/2 =qA*qB/4

Which means the product of charge is divided by 4 so the force would be divided by 4 too since they are directly proportional.

c. If d is tripped that is multiplied by 3. From the formula new d would be (3*d)²=9d² but force is inversely proportional to d² so instead of multiplying by 9 the force will be divided by 9

d. If d is cut into half that is divided by 2. The new d would be (d/2)²=d²/4. So d² is divided by 4 so the force would be multiplied by 4

e. If qA is tripled that is multiplied by 3. F would be multiplied by 3 also, if at the same time d is doubled (2*d)²= 4*d² . Force would be divided by 4 at same time. So we have,

3/4*F

alisha [4.7K]
Newton's first law says that an object at rest tends to stay at rest while an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force so the amount of force behind the defensive football player (N) was greater than the quarterback's so he was able to over power him which is also called unbalanced forces

Julia jumps straight upward on mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.7\,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{s}^2}3.7 s 2 m ​ 3, po
liberstina [14]

We know the equation of motion v = u+ at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

In this case Final velocity = -3.1 m/s, negative sign indicates it is pointing downward.

acceleration = - 3.7m/s^2 . Negative means acceleration is towards center of planet Mars.

Time taken = 3 seconds

v = u + at\\ \\-3.1 = u-3.7*3\\ \\u = 8 m/s

So jumping velocity of Julia = 8 m/s
