The heat of formation of ethene, C2 H4 is 50 kJmol−1 , and that of ethane, C2 H6 is -82kJmol−1 . Calculate the heat evolved in the process:
C2 H4 + H2 → C2 H6
Detalles de la respuesta
The heat evolved in a chemical reaction can be calculated by subtracting the heat of formation of the reactants from the heat of formation of the products. In this case, the reactants are ethene (C2H4) and hydrogen (H2), and the product is ethane (C2H6). The heat of formation of ethene is 50 kJ/mol and that of hydrogen is 0 kJ/mol (because hydrogen is a reference element). The heat of formation of ethane is -82 kJ/mol. So, the heat evolved in the reaction is given by: Heat evolved = (Heat of formation of products) - (Heat of formation of reactants) = (-82 kJ/mol) - (50 kJ/mol + 0 kJ/mol) = -82 kJ/mol - 50 kJ/mol = -132 kJ/mol. Therefore, the heat evolved in the process is -132 kJ.

A radioactive nucleus has a half-life of 20 years, starting with 100,000 particles, how many particles will be left exactly at the end of 40 years
Detalles de la respuesta
The half-life of a radioactive nucleus is the time it takes for half of its particles to decay. This means that after 20 years, 100,000 particles will become 50,000 particles. After 40 years, we can find the number of particles remaining by counting the number of half-lives that have passed. Since 40 years is double the half-life of 20 years, this means that two half-lives have passed, so the number of particles will be halved twice. Starting with 100,000 particles: - After 1 half-life (20 years), there will be 50,000 particles remaining. - After 2 half-lives (40 years), there will be 25,000 particles remaining. So, exactly at the end of 40 years, there will be 25,000 particles remaining.

Detalles de la respuesta
A secondary alkanol is an alcohol with two carbon atoms attached to the carbon bearing the hydroxyl group (-OH). Secondary alkanols can be oxidized by a strong oxidizing agent, such as potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7), to give an alkanone. During the oxidation process, the oxygen atom from the oxidizing agent replaces the hydroxyl group of the secondary alkanol to form a carbonyl group (C=O) in the alkanone. Since alkanones contain a carbonyl group, they are also known as ketones. Therefore, the answer to the question is alkanone, as secondary alkanols can be oxidized to form ketones.

Which of the following pollutants will lead to the depletion of ozone layer?
Detalles de la respuesta
The pollutant that leads to the depletion of the ozone layer is chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs). CFCs are man-made chemicals that were widely used in the past as refrigerants, solvents, and propellants. When CFCs are released into the atmosphere, they rise into the stratosphere, where they come into contact with ozone molecules. The chlorine atoms in CFCs react with ozone, breaking apart the ozone molecules and causing a reduction in the overall amount of ozone in the stratosphere. This process continues until all of the ozone-depleting chlorine atoms have been depleted. The resulting decrease in ozone in the stratosphere leads to an increase in the amount of harmful ultraviolet radiation that reaches the Earth's surface, which can have negative impacts on human health and the environment.

How many alkoxyalkanes can be obtained from the molecular formula C4 H10 O?
Detalles de la respuesta
Alkoxyalkanes have a general formula of R-O-R', where R and R' are alkyl groups. From the given molecular formula C4H10O, we can see that there are four carbon atoms, so the longest possible alkyl group is butyl (C4H9-). To form alkoxyalkanes, we need to attach an oxygen atom to the alkyl group. This can be done in three ways - by attaching the oxygen to one of the terminal carbon atoms (forming a primary alcohol), by attaching it to one of the central carbon atoms (forming a secondary alcohol), or by attaching it to the carbonyl carbon atom (forming an ester). So, we can obtain a maximum of three alkoxyalkanes from the given molecular formula. However, we need to take into account that there are different isomers possible for each type of alcohol or ester, depending on which carbon atom the oxygen is attached to. Therefore, the correct answer is (at least) 3.

Which of the following metals is the most essential in the regulation of blood volume, blood pressure and osmotic equilibrium?
Detalles de la respuesta
The metal that is most essential in the regulation of blood volume, blood pressure, and osmotic equilibrium is sodium. Sodium is a key electrolyte that helps maintain the balance of fluids in the body, including blood volume and blood pressure. Sodium ions are positively charged and are attracted to negatively charged ions, such as chloride (Cl-) and bicarbonate (HCO3-), which together help regulate the pH of the blood. Sodium is also essential for maintaining osmotic equilibrium, which refers to the balance of solutes between cells and the extracellular fluid. Osmotic equilibrium is critical for proper cellular function and is regulated by the movement of water and electrolytes, including sodium, in and out of cells. While the other metals listed (zinc, manganese, and iron) are important for various functions in the body, such as enzyme activity and oxygen transport, they are not directly involved in regulating blood volume, blood pressure, and osmotic equilibrium in the same way that sodium is. Therefore, the answer is not options 1, 2, or 4, and the correct answer is: sodium.

Burning magnesium ribbon in air removes which of the following
(i) oxygen (ii) nitrogen (iii) argon and (iv) carbon(iv)oxide?
Detalles de la respuesta
Burning magnesium ribbon in air will remove oxygen (option i) from the air, but not nitrogen (option ii), argon (option iii), or carbon dioxide (option iv). When magnesium burns, it reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. The reaction can be represented by the following equation: 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) The magnesium in the ribbon combines with oxygen in the air to form solid magnesium oxide. This reaction is exothermic, which means that it releases heat and light energy. So, when magnesium ribbon is burned in air, it consumes the oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. However, nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide are not chemically reactive with magnesium, and therefore are not removed from the air by the burning of magnesium ribbon. In summary, the correct option is (i) only - burning magnesium ribbon in air removes oxygen only.

How many electrons will be found in the nucleus of an atom with mass number 23 and 17 neutrons?
Detalles de la respuesta
Electrons are not found in the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus of an atom only contains protons and neutrons, while electrons are located outside the nucleus in the electron cloud. The mass number of an atom is equal to the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Therefore, if an atom has a mass number of 23 and 17 neutrons, then the number of protons in the nucleus can be calculated as: Protons = Mass number - Neutrons Protons = 23 - 17 Protons = 6 This means that the nucleus of the atom contains 6 protons. The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons, so the atom also contains 6 electrons in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus. In summary, the answer is that there are 6 protons and 6 electrons in the atom.

Detalles de la respuesta
The chemical constituent of soda lime used to prepare methane in the laboratory is Ca(OH)2 (calcium hydroxide) and NaOH (sodium hydroxide). Soda lime is a mixture of these two compounds. When sodium ethanoate (NaC2H3O2) is heated with soda lime, it undergoes a reaction known as the Kolbe's reaction, which produces methane gas (CH4) as one of the products. The reaction can be represented as follows: 2NaC2H3O2 + 2Ca(OH)2 → 2CH4 + 2NaOH + 2CaCO3 In this reaction, the sodium ethanoate reacts with the calcium hydroxide to form calcium acetate (Ca(C2H3O2)2) and sodium hydroxide. The calcium acetate then decomposes to produce methane gas and calcium carbonate (CaCO3), which is a solid precipitate. Therefore, the chemical constituents of soda lime used to prepare methane in the laboratory are calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

What technique is suitable for separating a binary solution of potassium chloride and potassium trioxochlorate (V)?
Detalles de la respuesta
Fractional crystallization is the most suitable technique for separating a binary solution of potassium chloride and potassium trioxochlorate (V). This is because fractional crystallization is a process that separates a mixture of substances based on their solubility in a solvent at a particular temperature. In this case, potassium chloride and potassium trioxochlorate (V) have different solubilities in a solvent such as water at different temperatures. By carefully controlling the temperature, the solubility of each compound can be selectively increased or decreased, allowing them to be separated by crystallization. The less soluble compound will form crystals first and can be separated from the more soluble compound, which remains in the solution. Therefore, fractional crystallization can be used to separate potassium chloride and potassium trioxochlorate (V) in a binary solution.

If acidified Potassium Dichromate(VI) (K2 Cr2 O7 ) acts as oxidizing agent, color changes from
Detalles de la respuesta
Potassium Dichromate (VI), when it is acidified, acts as an oxidizing agent. When this happens, the color changes from orange to green. This is because the orange color of the potassium dichromate is due to the presence of Cr(VI) ions, which are oxidized to Cr(III) ions. The green color that is produced is due to the formation of chromium(III) ions. In this reaction, the dichromate ions are being oxidized, which means that they are losing electrons, and the chromium ions are being reduced, which means that they are gaining electrons. The transfer of electrons causes the color change from orange to green.

Which quantum divides shells into orbitals?
Detalles de la respuesta
The quantum that divides shells into orbitals is the "Azimuthal" quantum number, also known as the "angular momentum" quantum number. The azimuthal quantum number determines the shape of an electron's orbital, which is a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron. It describes the angular momentum of an electron in an atom and the number of subshells within a given shell. Each subshell is associated with a specific shape, and can hold a certain number of electrons. The azimuthal quantum number is represented by the letter "l" and can have integer values ranging from 0 to (n-1), where "n" is the principal quantum number. Each value of "l" corresponds to a different subshell shape: - l = 0 corresponds to an "s" subshell, which is spherical in shape. - l = 1 corresponds to a "p" subshell, which has a dumbbell shape with two lobes. - l = 2 corresponds to a "d" subshell, which has a more complex shape with four lobes and a doughnut-like ring. - l = 3 corresponds to an "f" subshell, which has an even more complex shape with eight lobes. The number of orbitals within a subshell is equal to 2l+1. For example, a "p" subshell (l = 1) has three orbitals (2l+1 = 3), which are labeled as "px", "py", and "pz". In summary, the azimuthal quantum number determines the shape of the electron's orbital and the number of subshells within a given shell, and it is represented by the letter "l".

Hydrogen diffused through a porous plug
Detalles de la respuesta
Hydrogen gas (H2) diffuses faster than oxygen gas (O2) through a porous plug. This is because the rate of diffusion of a gas through a porous plug is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. Since the molar mass of hydrogen (2 g/mol) is much smaller than that of oxygen (32 g/mol), the rate of diffusion of hydrogen through a porous plug is much faster than that of oxygen. To be more specific, the ratio of the diffusion rates of two gases through a porous plug is given by the equation: Rate of diffusion of gas A / Rate of diffusion of gas B = √(Molar mass of gas B / Molar mass of gas A) Using the molar masses of hydrogen and oxygen, we get: Rate of diffusion of hydrogen / Rate of diffusion of oxygen = √(32 g/mol / 2 g/mol) = √16 = 4 Therefore, hydrogen diffuses through a porous plug four times as fast as oxygen. Thus, the correct answer is: four times as fast as oxygen.

Which of the following statements about catalyst is false?
Detalles de la respuesta
The false statement about catalysts is: "catalysts do not alter the mechanism of the reaction and never appear in the rate law." Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions without being consumed in the process. They achieve this by reducing the activation energy needed for the reaction to occur. Enzymes are a type of biological catalysts. In a chemical reaction, a catalyst is not consumed and does not appear in the overall balanced equation. However, catalysts can alter the mechanism of a reaction by providing an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy. This alternative pathway can have a different rate-determining step, which means that the presence of the catalyst can change the rate law of the reaction. Therefore, the statement that catalysts do not alter the mechanism of the reaction and never appear in the rate law is false.

Detalles de la respuesta
2-methylprop-1-ene is an isomer of 3-methyl but-1-ene and 2-methyl but-1-ene. An isomer is a molecule that has the same molecular formula as another molecule, but a different arrangement of atoms. In this case, 2-methylprop-1-ene has the molecular formula C4H8, and so do 3-methyl but-1-ene and 2-methyl but-1-ene. The difference between these three molecules is in the arrangement of the carbon and hydrogen atoms. 2-methylprop-1-ene has a branched structure with a double bond between the first and second carbon atoms. 3-methyl but-1-ene is also a branched molecule, but the double bond is between the second and third carbon atoms. Similarly, 2-methyl but-1-ene has a double bond between the first and second carbon atoms, but it has a different branching pattern. On the other hand, pent-2-ene has five carbon atoms, so it has a different molecular formula than 2-methylprop-1-ene. Therefore, 2-methylprop-1-ene is an isomer of 3-methyl but-1-ene and 2-methyl but-1-ene, but not of pent-2-ene, because it has the same molecular formula and a different arrangement of atoms compared to the other two isomers.
