When optically active (S)-2-methylcyclopentanone is treated with an acid (H3O ), the compound loses its optical activity. Explain this observation and draw a mechanism that shows how racemization occurs. For the mechanism, draw the curved arrows as needed. Include lone pairs and charges in your answer. Do not draw out any hydrogen explicitly in your products. Do not use abbreviations such as Me or Ph.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When (S)-2-methylcyclopentanone is treated with an acid, the carbonyl oxygen atom is protonated.

This leads to the emergence of a positive charge on the cabonyl oxygen. Then the C=O bond is now transformed into H-C-OH where C is a carbocation which leads to a racemic mixture. Loss of a proton from the adjacent carbon atom completes the mechanism.

In this process, the optically active (S)-2-methylcyclopentanone is converted to a pair of diastereomers thereby loosing its optical activity.

Answers

Answer:

The pH of a solution is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution. A solution with a high number of hydrogen ions is acidic and has a low pH value. A solution with a high number of hydroxide ions is basic and has a high pH value. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with a pH of 7 being neutral.

Amanda inserted the gel tray with the well towards the red ( ) end of the chamber during gel electrophoresis and carefully pipetted her samples into the wells as indicated in the lab directions. After viewing her gel under UV light, she did not find bands in the regions that she was expecting. What did she most likely see in her gel results and why

Answers

Answer:

hello the options related to your question is missing attached below is the complete question with the options

answer:

Any visible bands were found in the small area above the wells instead in the expected large bottom area of the gel, because Amanda should have placed the wells into the black (-) end of the chamber for DNA to move towards the opposite red (+) end of the gel.   (  2 )

Explanation:

Why Amanda did not see any bands in the region that she was expecting is because during electrophoresis ( which allows the distinguishing of various lengths of DNA fragments on a gel )  the DNA been negative will migrate to the positively charged  electrodes and  The shorter brands will move faster through the gel, providing DNA fragments arrangements on the gel according to size.

You have three containers each of which is connected to a fourth empty container. Three of the containers contain pure gases. In the first container oxygen is at 2 atm, nitrogen at 4 atm is in the second container, and argon at 1 atm is in the third. When you open the valve and mix the gases in the forth container, what is the pressure, PT, in the forth container

Answers

Answer: The total pressure is 7 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

[tex]p_{total}=p_A+p_B+p_C...[/tex]

Given : [tex]p_{total}[/tex] =total pressure of gases = ?

[tex]p_{O_2}[/tex] = partial pressure of oxygen = 2 atm

[tex]p_{N_2}[/tex] = partial pressure of nitrogen = 4 atm

[tex]p_{Ar}[/tex] = partial pressure of argon = 1 atm

putting in the values we get:

[tex]p_{total}=2atm+4atm+1atm[/tex]  

[tex]p_{total}=7atm[/tex]

Thus the total pressure is 7 atm

How many grams are in 1.2 x 1024 atoms of sodium?

Answers

Answer:

46 g

Explanation:

First we convert 1.2 x 10²⁴ atoms of sodium into moles, using Avogadro's number:

1.2x10²⁴ atoms ÷ 6.023x10²³ atoms/mol = 2.0 mol

Then we convert 2.0 moles of sodium into grams, using sodium's molar mass:

2.0 mol Na * 23 g/mol = 46 g

Thus, there are 46 grams in 1.2x10²⁴ atoms of sodium.

The empirical and molecular formula are related by the formula, molecular formula=2×empirical formula ,meaning double the atoms present in empirical formula,hence molecular formula is P₄O₁₀.

What is empirical formula?

Empirical formula of a compound is defined as the simplest whole number ratio of atoms which are present in a compound.It does not make any mention of the arrangement of atoms or the number of atoms. The empirical formula gives information about the ratio of number of atoms which are present in a compound.

Molecular formula is determined from the empirical formula by dividing the molar mass of a compound by the empirical formula mass. The resultant which should be a whole number or very close to the whole number , then the subscripts are multiplied by the whole number to get the molecular formula.

For the compound P₂O₅ the subscripts of phosphorous and oxygen are multiplied by 2 and hence the molecular formula P₄O₁₀.

It is often possible to change a hydrate into an anhydrous compound by heating it to drive off the water (dehydration). A 45.91 gram sample of a hydrate of MnSO4 was heated thoroughly in a porcelain crucible, until its weight remained constant. After heating, 37.07 grams of the anhydrous compound remained. What is the formula of the hydrate

Answers

Answer: The formula of the hydrate is [tex]MnSO_4.2H_2O[/tex]

Explanation:

Decomposition of hydrated manganese sulphate is given by:

[tex]MnSO_4.xH_2O\rightarrow MnSO_4+xH_2O[/tex]

Molar mass of [tex]MnSO_4[/tex] = 151.0 g/mol

According to stoichiometry:

(151.0+18x) g of [tex]MnSO_4.xH_2O[/tex] decomposes to give 151.0 g of [tex]MnSO_4[/tex]

Thus 45.91 g of [tex]MnSO_4.xH_2O[/tex] decomposes to give= [tex]\frac{ 151.0}{151.0+18x}\times 45.91g[/tex]  of [tex]MnSO_4[/tex]

Also we are given : 37.07 g of  [tex]MnSO_4[/tex] is produced

Thus we can equate the two equations:

[tex]\frac{ 151.0}{151.0+18x}\times 45.91=37.07[/tex]

[tex]x=2[/tex]  

Thus the formula of the hydrate is [tex]MnSO_4.2H_2O[/tex]

Ca = 40.078g/mol *3 = 120.234g

P = 30.974g/mol *2 = 61.948g

O = 15.999g/mol *8 = 127.992g

Answers

65.0 L.








I need more characters

The volume 15.0 g of O₂ has at a certain temperature and pressure is 2.16 L.

What is volume?

Volume is the space occupied by a three-dimensional object.

By the law of dilution

M₁/V₁ = M₂/V₂

Mass 1 is 5.00

Volume 1 is 7.20 L

Mass 2 15.0 g

Volume 2 is to find

Putting the value in the equation

5.00/ 7.20 = 15.0 / V₂

V₂ = 7.20 × 15.00/ 5.00 = 21.6

Thus, the volume will be 21.6 L.

Sonni added 23.79 mL of KOH to 20.00 mL of 0.393 M HF until the equivalence point was reached. What is the concentration of conjugate base at the equivalence point after the initial neutralization?

Answers

Answer:

0.1795 M

Explanation:

From the given information:

The equation is:

[tex]\mathbf{HF_{(aq)}+ KOH_{(aq)} \to KF _{(aq)} + H_2O}[/tex]

From the above equation, the reaction will go to completion due to the strong base:

At the equivalence point, moles of acid (HF) will be equal to moles of base (KOH)

[tex]\text{Number of moles = Volume} \times Molarity[/tex]

Thus. since moles of HF = moles of KOH

Then; 0.020 × 0.393 M = 0.02379 × (x) M

(x) M = [tex]\dfrac{0.02 \times 0.393 \ M}{0.02379}[/tex]

(x) = 0.3304 M

Thus, the molarity of KOH = 0.3304 M

Using the balanced neutralization reaction;

moles of HF = moles of KOH = moles of conjugate base = 0.00786 mol

Volume = 0.020 L + 0.02379 L

Volume = 0.04379 L

Volume of the solution =  0.04379 L

Therefore; Molarity = [tex]\dfrac{moles}{volume}[/tex]

Molarity = [tex]\dfrac{0.00786 \ mol}{0.04379 \ L}[/tex]

Molarity = 0.17949 mol/L

= 0.1795 M

After the initial neutralization, the molarity at the equivalence point will be:

"0.17949 mol/L"

Concentration of solution

According to the question,

→ HF (aq) + KOH (aq) [tex]\rightarrow[/tex] KF (aq) + H₂O

Since, moles of HF = moles of KOH

We know that,

Number of moles = Volume × Molarity

→ 0.020 × 0.393 = 0.02379 × M

By applying cross-multiplication,

The molarity of KOH be:

M = [tex]\frac{0.02\times 0.393}{0.02379}[/tex]

   = [tex]\frac{0.00786}{0.02379}[/tex]

   = 0.3304 M

By using balanced neutralization reaction,

Volume = 0.020 + 0.02379

             = 0.04379 L

hence,

The molarity will be:

= [tex]\frac{Moles}{Volume}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

= [tex]\frac{0.00786}{0.04379}[/tex]

= 0.17949 mol/L
