Police investigating the scene of a sexual assault recover a large blanket that they believe may contain useful physical evidence. They take it to the laboratory of forensic serologist Scott Alden, asking him to test it for the presence of semen. Noticing faint pink stains on the blanket, Scott asks the investigating detective if he is aware of anything that might recently have been spilled on the blanket. The detective reports that an overturned bowl of grapes and watermelon was found at the scene, as well as a broken glass that had contained wine. After the detective departs, Scott chooses and administers what he considers the best test for analysing the piece of evidence in his possession. Three minutes after completion of the test, the blanket shows a positive reaction. What test did Scott choose, and what was his conclusion? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Acid Phosphatase (AP) Test

Explanation:

Acid phosphate is an enzyme that is found in the body. It is secreted majorly by the prostrate gland into the seminal fluid. The acid phosphatase test is used to test for the presence of semen in items.

Scott chose the acid phosphatase test because it is very useful in testing for semen on large items such as blankets. The reaction time for an acid phosphatase test for semen is less than 30 seconds. Seeing that the test was completed in three minutes, Scott concluded that the positive reaction was as a result of some other fluid.

The detectives reported that an overturned bowl of grapes and watermelon was found at the scene as well as a broken glass that had contained wine. Scott knew that some fruit juices like that of watermelon give a positive reaction to the acid phosphatase test but with  more time that of the semen fluid because the reaction is a very slow one.

Scott concluded that there was no presence of semen on the blanket and therefore there was no sexual assault.

Consider a reaction that connects the ends of a chain of carbons to form a ring. The closure of the ring results in the formation of a new chemical bond, with the bonding electrons going into a bonding sigma molecular orbital at a lower energy. Which of the following statements correctly describes the resulting enthalpy, entropy, and heat changes? Mark all that are correct.
A. The entropy of the surroundings decreases (AS surr < 0) because the closure of the ring results in fewer conformations for the system.
B. The system releases energy to the environment, because its internal energy decreases.
C. The entropy of the surroundings increases (AS surr > 0) because the surroundings absorb heat released by the reaction, and become more disordered.
D. The entropy of the system decreases (AS sys < 0) because the closure of the ring reduces the number of conformations the ring can adopt.
E. The enthalpy or internal energy of the system decreases (AH sys < 0) because the electrons that form the bond enter an orbital that is at a lower energy.

Answers

Answer:

The system releases energy to the environment, because its internal energy decreases.

The entropy of the surroundings increases (AS surr > 0) because the surroundings absorb heat released by the reaction, and become more disordered.

The entropy of the system decreases (AS sys < 0) because the closure of the ring reduces the number of conformations the ring can adopt.

The enthalpy or internal energy of the system decreases (AH sys < 0) because the electrons that form the bond enter an orbital that is at a lower energy.

Explanation:

Now we know that when a reaction is exothermic heat is given off. In this case, we have a reaction that connects the ends of a chain of carbons to form a ring.  The bonding electrons now move into a lower energy bonding sigma molecular orbital.

This leads to a decrease in the entropy and enthalpy of the system because energy is given off, the closure of the ring reduces the number of conformations the ring can adopt and  the electrons that form the bond enter an orbital that is at a lower energy.

The entropy of the surroundings is increased as energy is given out. The surroundings absorb heat released by the reaction, and become more disordered.

Gaseous butane CH3CH22CH3 will react with gaseous oxygen O2 to produce gaseous carbon dioxide CO2 and gaseous water H2O. Suppose 0.58 g of butane is mixed with 0.874 g of oxygen. Calculate the maximum mass of water that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

0.378 g of H₂₂O can be produced.

Explanation:

The combustion reaction is:

2CH₃(CH₂)₂CH₃  +  13O₂  →  8CO₂  +  10H₂O

We convert the mass of reactants to moles:

0.58 g . 1mol / 58.1g = 0.00998 moles of butane

0.874 g . 1mol / 32g = 0.0273 moles of O₂

Oxygen is the limiting reactant. Look at stoichiometry.

2 moles of butane need 13 moles of oxygen to react

Then, 0.00998 moles of gas may react to (0.00998 . 13) / 2 = 0.06487 moles of oyxgen. I only have 0.0273 moles, so i do not have enough oxygen to complete the reaction.

Let's find out the product.

13 moles of oyxgen can produce 10 moles of water.

Then 0.0273 moles of O₂ may produce (0.0273 . 10)/13 =  0.021 moles

We convert to mass  →  0.021 mol . 18g /1mol = 0.378 g

How many moles of iron(III) oxide will the reaction produce?


a

34 moles

b

13 moles

c

6.5 moles

d

44 moles

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

C

The limiting reactant in this reaction is Fe. 4 moles of Fe gives 2 moles of ferric oxide. Hence, 13 moles of Fe will give 6.5 moles of iron (iii)oxide.

What is limiting reactant ?

The reactant which is not sufficient in amount determines the yield of the reaction and it is called the limiting reactant of the reaction.

In the given reaction, 4 moles of iron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen to give 2 moles of iron oxide.

given , no.of moles of oxygen gas present  in the sample = 21 moles

no.of moles of Fe = 13 moles.

Here, 28 moles of Fe is needed to react with 21 moles of oxygen. Hence, Fe is the limiting reactant.

4 moles of Fe gives 2 moles of iron (III)oxide. Hence, number of moles of the product , formed from 13 moles of Fe is calculated as follows:

(13 moles  ×2 moles)/4moles = 6.5m moles

Therefore, 6.5 moles of iron (III)oxide is formed from 13 moles of Fe.

If a substance has a large mass and a small volume how dense is it

Answers

Answer:

Very dense.

Explanation:

Conceptually, you are taking a large amount of atoms and putting them into a small container.  This means the spaces between atoms has to be smaller and the substance is more dense. (see image)

Mathematically, the equation for density is mass divided by volume ([tex]Density=\frac{m}{v}[/tex] ). If you divide a big number by a small number, you still have  a pretty big number (ex 4/2=2 versus 6/1=6)

If 12 grams of sodium reacts with 16 grams of chlorine, how much sodium chloride is Formed?
A. 4 g
B. 12 g
C. 28 g
D. 30 g

Answers

Answer:

6.576 g NaCl

Explanation:

2Na + Cl2 --> 2 NaCl

Step 1: Find out moles of Na and Cl to determine the limiting reactant:

moles Na = 12/23 = 0.52 moles Na

moles Cl2 = 16/71=0.225 moles Cl2

ratio Na:Cl is 2.3:1 so Cl is the limiting reactant.

Step 2: How many moles of NaCl are formed:

moles NaCl = moles Cl2 x (1 mol NaCl/2 moles Cl2) = 0.225/2 = 0.1125 moles NaCl

Step 3:

mass NaCl = moles NaCl x MM NaCl = 0.1125 x 58.45 = 6.576 g NaCl

A sample of compound B (also a clear, colorless gas) is analyzed and found to contain 5.19g carbon and 13.84g oxygen. Are these data an example of the law of definite proportions, the law of multiple proportions, or neither? What do these data tell you about substances A and B?

Answers

Answer:

law of multiple proportions

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that, if two elements A and B, combine to form more than one chemical compound. Then the various masses of one element A, which combine separately with a fixed mass of element B are in  simple multiple ratio.

We can see that the ratio of oxygen that combines with carbon in the two compounds( A and B) is 1:2. This demonstrates the law of multiple proportions.

The substances A and B must be CO and CO2 respectively.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A positron is also called a positive electron. It results from the transformation of a proton into a neutron.

When a nucleus decays by positron emission, the atomic mass of both the parent and daughter nuclei remain the same but the atomic number of the daughter nucleus decreases by 1 compared to that of the parent nucleus. The daughter nucleus is now found one place to the left of the parent nucleus in the periodic table.

This leads to an increase in the Neutron/Proton ratio.

Reaction scheme illustrating the dehydration of cyclohexanol in the prescence of acid catalyst to cylcohexene and water. A dehydration reaction starting with 4.1 g cyclohexanol produces 3.0 g cyclohexene. Calculate the percent yield for this reaction. Report your answer with two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

88%

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

C₆H₁₁OH ⇒ C₆H₁₀ + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4.1 g of C₆H₁₁OH

The molar mass of C₆H₁₁OH is 100.16 g/mol.

4.1 g × 1 mol/100.16 g = 0.041 mol

Step 3: Calculate the theoretical yield, in moles, of C₆H₁₀

The molar ratio of C₆H₁₁OH to C₆H₁₀ is 1:1. The theoretical yield of C₆H₁₀, in moles, is 1/1 × 0.041 mol = 0.041 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.041 moles of C₆H₁₀

The molar mass of C₆H₁₀ is 82.14 g/mol.

0.041 mol × 82.14 g/mol = 3.4 g

Step 5: Calculate the percent yield of C₆H₁₀

We will use the following expression.

percent yield = experimental yield/theoretical yield × 100%

percent yield = 3.0 g/3.4 g × 100% = 88%

For the mechanism, include lone pairs and charges in your answer. Do not draw out any hydrogen explicitly. Do not use abbreviations such as Me or Ph.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case we have reaction of addition. In this case a diene reacting with an acid as HBr. This reaction is known as Hydrohalogenation, and, as we have a diene, this kind of reaction can be done as 1,4 addition. Which means that the reaction will be undergoing with an adition in the carbon 1, and carbon 4.

At room temperature we can expect that this reaction can be done in thermodynamic conditions, Now, as the problem states that is forming 4 products, we can expect products of a 1,2 addition too. This product can be formed if the reaction is taking place in the most stable carbocation, and then, by resonance, we can expect the 1,4 product too.

Now, the HBr can be attacked by the double bond of the first position, giving two possible products or by the double bond of the third position giving the other two products. These products are all possible, obviously the most stable will be the major of all of them, but the other three are perfectly possible. One product is formed without doing much, and the other by resonance. Same happens with the other double bond.

In the picture below, you have the mechanism for all the 4 products.

The increase in electro negativity when moving left to right on the periodic table can be explained by what?

Answers

Answer: Decrease in size

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.

On moving across a period from left to right,   the size of an atom decreases because the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases. Thus electronegativity increases.
