(a)
Interpretation:
The voltage V2 should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
When resistors are in series, a voltage divider. V = V1 + V2 + V3
The current in a series circuit is everywhere the same. In other words, I = I1 = I2 = I3
The total resistance Rs of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the resistances of the individual components. Rs = R1 + R2 + R3
Ohm’s law;
Ohm’s law describes the relationship among voltage, resistance, and current in a resistive series circuit.
V = IR
(b)
Interpretation:
The power loss in resistor R2 should be determined.
Concept introduction:
When resistors are in series, a voltage divider. V = V1 + V2 + V3
The current in a series circuit is everywhere the same. In other words, I = I1 = I2 = I3
The total resistance Rs of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the resistances of the individual components. Rs = R1 + R2 + R3
Ohm’s law;
Ohm’s law describes the relationship among voltage, resistance, and current in a resistive series circuit.
V = IR
V = Voltage I = Current R = resistant
Power rule;
P = V I
P = Power V = voltage I = Current
(c)
Interpretation:
The fraction of total power lost by the circuit would be dissipated in in resistor R2 should be calculated.

- Using what we have learned in CHEM 2310 and up through class on 1/31, propose a series of reaction steps to achieve the transformation below. Be sure to show all reagents and intermediates for full credit. You do not need to draw mechanism arrows, but you do need to include charges where appropriate. If you do not put your group name, you will get half credit at most. ?
