(a)
Interpretation:
At the transition temperature of 95.40C, the enthalpy of transition from rhombic to monoclinic sulfur is 0.38 kJ mol-1. The entropy of transition under these conditions, needs to be calculated.
Concept Introduction :
The entropy of transition is defined as below:
Here,
(b)
Interpretation:
At its melting point, 1190C, the enthalpy of fusion of monoclinic sulfur is 1.23 KJ mol-1. The enthalpy of fusion needs to be calculated.
Concept Introduction :
The entropy of transition is defined as below:
Here,
(c)
Interpretation:
The values of the enthalpy and entropy of fusion in parts (a) and (b) to those appropriate for S8 needs to be converted.
Concept Introduction :
The entropy of transition is defined as below:
Here,

- Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution: What is the product of the reaction? *see imagearrow_forwardShow the correct sequence to connect the reagent to product. * see imagearrow_forwardThe answer here says that F and K have a singlet and a doublet. The singlet and doublet are referring to the H's 1 carbon away from the carbon attached to the OH. Why don't the H's two carbons away, the ones on the cyclohexane ring, cause more peaks on the signal?arrow_forward
- Draw the Birch Reduction for this aromatic compound and include electron withdrawing groups and electron donating groups. *See attachedarrow_forwardShow the correct sequence to connect the reagent to product. * see imagearrow_forwardBlocking Group are use to put 2 large sterically repulsive group ortho.
