(a)
Interpretation:
The way by which a catalyst affects the forward and reverse rates of the reaction has to be explained.
Concept Introduction
Catalyst: The catalyst is a chemical substance that increases the rate of the reaction without participating in the reaction by reducing the activation energy of the reaction.
In a
In a chemical reaction, the species that present in right side is denoted as product that results from the reactant.
(b)
Interpretation:
The effect of catalyst on the energies of the reactant and the product has to be given.
Concept Introduction
Catalyst: The catalyst is a chemical substance that increases the rate of the reaction without participating in the reaction by reducing the activation energy of the reaction.
In a chemical reaction, the species that present left is denoted as reactant which undergoes chemical change and result to give new species called product.
In a chemical reaction, the species that present in right side is denoted as product that results from the reactant.
(c)
Interpretation:
The effect of increase in temperature on the equilibrium constant has to be determined.
Concept Introduction
Endothermic reaction:
In an endothermic reaction, heat will be a reactant. Therefore, increasing the temperature will shift the reaction from reactant side to the product side and the value of equilibrium constant will increases.
Exothermic reaction:
In an exothermic reaction, heat will be a product. Therefore, increasing the temperature will shift the reaction from product side to the reactant side and the value of equilibrium constant will decreases.
(d)
Interpretation:
The equilibrium constant remains unchanged if a catalyst added to the reacting mixture has to be shown.

- Draw the molecules.arrow_forwardDraw the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed dehydration of 2-methyl-hexan-2-ol with arrows please.arrow_forward. Draw the products for addition reactions (label as major or minor) of the reaction between 2-methyl-2-butene and with following reactants : Steps to follow : A. These are addition reactions you need to break a double bond and make two products if possible. B. As of Markovnikov rule the hydrogen should go to that double bond carbon which has more hydrogen to make stable products or major product.

- Please draw.arrow_forwardA chromatogram with ideal Gaussian bands has tR = 9.0 minutes and w1/2 = 2.0 minutes. Find the number of theoretical plates that are present, and calculate the height of each theoretical plate if the column is 10 centimeters long.arrow_forwardAn open tubular column has an inner diameter of 207 micrometers, and the thickness of the stationary phase on the inner wall is 0.50 micrometers. Unretained solute passes through in 63 seconds and a particular solute emerges at 433 seconds. Find the distribution constant for this solute and find the fraction of time spent in the stationary phase.arrow_forward
- Consider a chromatography column in which Vs= Vm/5. Find the retention factor if Kd= 3 and Kd= 30.arrow_forwardTo improve chromatographic separation, you must: Increase the number of theoretical plates on the column. Increase the height of theoretical plates on the column. Increase both the number and height of theoretical plates on the column. Increasing the flow rate of the mobile phase would Increase longitudinal diffusion Increase broadening due to mass transfer Increase broadening due to multiple paths You can improve the separation of components in gas chromatography by: Rasing the temperature of the injection port Rasing the temperature of the column isothermally Rasing the temperature of the column using temperature programming In GC, separation between two different solutes occurs because the solutes have different solubilities in the mobile phase the solutes volatilize at different rates in the injector the solutes spend different amounts of time in the stationary phasearrow_forwardplease draw and example of the following: Show the base pair connection(hydrogen bond) in DNA and RNAarrow_forward
