Answer to Problem 27P
Angle (1) and angle (2) both measures
Explanation of Solution
Given compound is as follows:
The carbon atom in the compound is surrounded by four groups (two hydrogen, one carbon and one chlorine). So, the angle between the bonds is

- For the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state. In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph.
