A general rule that the two protons of a CH2 group will be chemically equivalent if there are no chirality centers in the compound. An example of an exception is 3-bromopentane. This compound does not possess a chirality center. Nevertheless, the two highlighted protons are not chemically equivalent. Write down its explaination.

Calculate the change in entropy if br2(l) is converted to br2(g). s° for br2(l) = 152.2 j/(mol•k) s° for br2(g) = 245.5 j/(mol•k) s° for br(g) = 175.0 j/(mol•k)

The diagram below shows a cell placed in a solution. a cell is shown placed inside a beaker. it is labeled cell. the solution inside the beaker is labeled 40% salt solution and the solution inside the cell is labeled 20% salt solution. only water is allowed to move in and out of the cell. what will most likely happen to the cell? it will expand as water moves out of it. it will shrink as water moves out of it. it will expand as water moves into it. it will shrink as water moves into it.

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. in the first step, calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide: cac2 (s) + 2h2o (g) → c2h2 (g) + caoh2 (s) =δh−414.kj in the second step, acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid: 6c2h2 (g) + 3co2 (g) + 4h2o (g) → 5ch2chco2h (g) =δh132.kj calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide from these reactions. round your answer to the nearest kj .
