Chemistry for Changing Times, Chapter 12, Problem 21P

Interpretation:

The reason for the difference in rankings of the given elements in terms of their abundance on the Earth’s surface by atom percent and mass percent needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

  • The composition of earth’s surface can be expressed in terms the amount of element or the type of elements present
  • Mass percent is a ratio of the amount or weight of each element relative to the total weight
  • Atom percent is a ratio of the number of atoms of element relative to the total number of atoms

3) Determine if the pairs are constitutional isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, or mesocompounds. (4 points)
In the decomposition reaction in solution B → C, only species C absorbs UV radiation, but neither B nor the solvent absorbs. If we call At the absorbance measured at any time, A0 the absorbance at the beginning of the reaction, and A∞ the absorbance at the end of the reaction, which of the expressions is valid? We assume that Beer's law is fulfilled.
