The polymer formed from the monomer ch2=ch–cn is select one:

podryga [215]

Answer:
None of the given options show polymer made up of H₂C=CH-CN (Acrylonitrile).

Explanation:
Acrylonitrile (H₂C=CH-CN) which is a monomer on self linkage results in a large chain polymer called as Polyacrylonitrile.
The structure of Polyacrylonitrile is as follow,

--(H₂C-CHCN-)n--

Where n shows the number of Acrylonitrile units joined together in the formation of Polyacrylonitrile. This polymerization reaction can take place by different mechanisms including free radical mechanism, acid catalyzed addition or base catalyzed addition reaction.

The polymerization is shown below,

1. What volume of toluene do you need to add to 1 mL of ethyl acetate to make an equi-molar mixture? The density of ethyl acetat

galben [10]

Answer:

1.06 mL of toluene will be needed.

Explanation:

Equi-molar mixture means equal moles of all the components.

as given the volume of ethyl acetate = 1mL

Density of ethyl acetate = 0.898 g/mL

The relation between density, mass and volume is :

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

mass=volumeXdensity

mass of ethyl acetate present = 1mL X 0.898g/mL = 0.598 grams

the moles are related to mass as:

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}$

For ethyl acetate molar mass = 4X12+8X1+2X16= 88g/mol

moles of ethyl acetate will be:

$moles=\frac{0.898}{88}= 0.01mol$

So we need 0.01 moles of toluene also

For 0.01 moles the mass of toluene required = 0.01 X molar mass of toluene

mass required = 0.01 X 92=0.92grams

for 0.92 grams of toluene volume required will be:

$volume=\frac{mass}{density}=\frac{0.92}{0.867}= 1.06mL$

Assuming ideal behavior, how many moles of argon would you need to fill a 14.0×12.0×10.0 ft room? assume atmospheric pressure of

Blababa [14]

We use the formula:

PV = nRT

First let us get the volume V:

volume = 14 ft * 12 ft * 10 ft = 1,680 ft^3

Convert this to m^3:

volume = 1680 ft^3 * (1 m / 3.28 ft)^3 = 47.61 m^3

n = PV / RT

n = (1 atm) (47.61 m^3) / (293.15 K * 8.21x10^-5 m3 atm / mol K)

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.
