(a)
Interpretation: Formula for the nitric acid needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: Every matter is made of chemicals; the importance of chemistry is that it's the study of everything. Chemistry is all about how something interacts to affect the structure, composition, as well as knowing properties of substances.
(a)
Answer to Problem 6RQ
The answer is nitric acid,
Explanation of Solution
A notation to describe a substance that uses an atomic symbol and a numerical subscript to indicate the relative numbers of atoms (different elements in the substance) is defined as a chemical formula. In other words, chemical formulas are used to express chemical composition of substance. Chemical formula of any substance gives information elements that are included, number written in subscript represents the number of atoms/ molecules of that element.
A molecule containing one hydrogen atom, one nitrogen atom, and three oxygen atoms is nitric acid,
(b)
Interpretation: The formula of compound listing hydrogen atom first needs to be determined.

- k₁ Given the reaction R₂ R + R, indicate k-1 (A). the rate law with respect to R2: (B). the rate law with respect to R: d[R₂] dt d[R] dtarrow_forwardGiven the reaction R+ Q → P, indicate (A). the rate law with respect to P: (B). the rate law with respect to R: (C). the rate law with respect to Q: d[P] dt d[R] dt d[Q] dtarrow_forwardThe reaction for obtaining NO2 from NO and O2 has the rate equation: v = k[NO]2[O2]. Indicate which of the following options is correct.(A). This rate equation is inconsistent with the reaction consisting of a single trimolecular step.(B). Since the overall order is 3, the reaction must necessarily have some trimolecular step in its mechanism.(C). A two-step mechanism: 1) NO + NO ⇄ N2O2 (fast); 2) N2O2 + O2 → NO2 + NO2 (slow).(D). The mechanism must necessarily consist of three unimolecular elementary steps with very similar rate constants.arrow_forward
- a. What is the eluent used in the column chromatography here (a “silica plug filtration” is essentially a very short column)? b. The spectroscopy of compound 5b is described in the second half of this excerpt, including 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR (which you will learn about in CHEM 2412L), MS (which you will learn about later in CHEM 2411L) and IR. One of the IR signals is at 3530 cm-1. What functional group does this indicate might be present in compound 5b?arrow_forwardSteps and explanations. Also provide, if possible, ways to adress this kind of problems in general.arrow_forwarda. The first three lines of this procedure describe the reaction used to make compound 5b. In the fourth line, hexane and sodium bicarbonate are added. What organic lab technique is being used here? b. What is the purpose of the Na2SO4? c. What equipment would you use to “concentrate [a solution] under reduced pressure”?arrow_forward
- When N,N-dimethylaniline is treated with bromine both the ortho and para products are observed. However when treated with a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid only the meta product is observed.

- NH3 decomposes through an equilibrium reaction between NH3, H2, and N2. Only one of the options is correct:(A). The mechanism of the NH3 decomposition reaction must necessarily involve the collision of two NH3 molecules to induce a rearrangement of the atoms in this molecule.(B). The molecular weight of the NH3 decomposition reaction is 2 since two NH3 molecules must collide.(C). The rate of the NH3 decomposition reaction must be greater than that of NH3 synthesis, since the former requires two molecules to collide and the latter, four.(D). The NH3 decomposition reaction cannot occur in a single step.arrow_forwardGiven the equilibrium A2 + B2 ⇌ 2 AB where k1 is the rate coefficient of the forward reaction and k-1 is the rate coefficient of the reverse reaction, with the forward reaction being first-order in A2 and B2, and the reverse reaction being second-order in AB.
