Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A second chain propagation step in the given reaction has to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
Halogenation of
Radical chain reaction:
Initiation reaction:
Chain propagation:
Chain termination:
(b)
Interpretation:
Heat of the reaction,
Concept introduction:
Halogenation of alkanes: The replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by halogen. When alkanes is heated or irradiated with the light of specific wavelength, the alkyl halide are formed by radical chain reaction.
Radical chain reaction:
Initiation reaction:
Chain propagation:
Chain termination:
It is a change in enthalpy of a homolysis reaction at absolute zero where a molecule is broken down into two free radicals.
(c)
Interpretation:
The energies and relative rates of the set chain propagation steps in section 8.5B with given reaction has to be compared.

- Please correct answer and don't used hand raitingarrow_forwardThe vibrational contribution isa) temperature independent for internal energy and heat capacityb) temperature dependent for internal energy and heat capacityc) temperature independent for heat capacityd) temperature independent for internal energyarrow_forwardQuantum mechanics. Explain the basis of approximating the summation to an integral in translational motion.arrow_forward
- Quantum mechanics. In translational motion, the summation is replaced by an integral when evaluating the partition function. This is correct becausea) the spacing of the translational energy levels is very small compared to the product kTb) the spacing of the translational energy levels is comparable to the product kTc) the spacing of the translational energy levels is very large compared to the product kTarrow_forwardDon't used Ai solutionarrow_forwardPlease correct answer and don't used hand raiting don't used Ai solutionarrow_forward
