Estimate the surface-to-volume ratio of a C60 fullerene by treating the molecule as a hollow sphere and using 77pm for the atomic radius of carbon.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The surface-to-volume ratio of a C-60 fullerene is 3:77.

Explanation:

Surface area of sphere = S=4\pi r^2

Volume of the sphere = V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3

where : r  = radius of the sphere

Radius of the C-60 fullerene sphere = r = 77 pm

Surface area of the C-60 fullerene = S=4\pi (77 pm)^2...[1]

Volume area of the C-60 fullerene = V=(4)/(3)\pi (77 pm)^3..[2]

Dividing [1] by [2]:

(S)/(V)=(4\pi (77 pm)^2)/((4)/(3)\pi (77 pm)^3)

=(3)/(77)

The surface-to-volume ratio of a C-60 fullerene is 3:77.

The two reactions above, show routes for conversion of an alkene into an oxirane. If the starting alkene is cis-3-hexene the configurations of the oxirane products, A and B are Product A: _______ Product B: _______ Will either of these two oxirane products rotate the plane of polarization of plane polarized light

Answers

Answer:

Product A and B : (2R,3S)-2,3-diethyloxirane and (2S,3R)-2,3-diethyloxirane.

Explanation:

A double bond is converted to an oxirane through oxidation by peracids e.g. mCPBA (meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid).

Epoxidation can occur at both face of double bond result in formation of two stereoisomers.

Product A and B : (2R,3S)-2,3-diethyloxirane and (2S,3R)-2,3-diethyloxirane

Both A and B contain plane of symmetry. Hence, both the products are achiral. So, they do not rotate the plane of polarization of plane polarized light.

Explanation:

The key difference between Democritus and Dalton atomic theory is that the Democritus atomic theory is an ancient theory that scientists later refined and elaborated whereas Dalton atomic theory is a comparatively modern, scientific theory that we cannot discard due its important statements.

Unknown A melts at 113- 114oC. Known compounds 3-Nitroaniline and 4-Nitrophenol both melt at 112-114 oC. If A is mixed with 3-Nitroaniline and the melting point becomes broad and depressed, what must A be __________A) 3-Nitroaniline B) 4-Nitrophenol C) Both

Answers

Answer:

C) Both

Explanation:

Whenever we mix any pure form of a compound with some other form of a compound which is not in the other standard pure state, this results in the melting point of mixture to get dispersed and it becomes broad form.

Thus, when a known compound of 3-Nitroaniline mixes with both 3-Nitroaniline and 4-Nitrophenol, the melting point of the compound becomes depressed and board.

Thus the correct option is (C).

What is the volume of 45.6g of silver if the density of silver is 10.5g/mL? A. 4.34mL B. 479mL C. 0.23mL

Answers

The volume of 45.6g of silver if the density of silver is 10.5g/mL is 4.342 ml. The correct option is A.

What is Volume?

Volume is the space occupied by a three-dimensional object. The volume of any object can be calculated by dividing the mass by its density. It is a scalar quantity. It is the total weight is that object.

Silver is an element in the periodic table. It is non-metal, and it is used in making ornaments and in medicines. The volume of the solver is calculated, and the mass and density are given.

\rm{Volume = (mass)/(density)}

The mass of silver is given, 45.6g

The density of the element is 10.5g/mL

Putting the value in the equation

The density and the mass would be divided.

Volume = 45.6g / 10.5 = 4.342

Thus, the volume of silver is 4.342 ml. The correct option is A.
