Passage Organic compounds mainly consist of covalent bonds. The electron pair in these covalent bonds may undergo displacement either of their own or under the influence of other species. The cleavage of covalent bond between two atoms takes place in homolytic or heterolytic fashion. The homolytic fission results into free radicals while heterolytic fission results into carbocations and carbanions. These are also called reaction intermediates and are attacked by electrophiles and nucleophiles. The electrophiles seek electron rich sites while nucleophiles seek electron deficient sites. Answer the followings Questions : Which of the following series contain only nucleophiles: |

Partial pressure of (p) is in proportional to the concentration (c) - explain. |
|
Answer» Solution :For REACTIONS involving gases, however, it is usually more convenient to express the equilibrium CONSTANT in terms of partial PRESSURE. Equation of idea gas pV nRT ....(Eq.-i) `therefore p=(n/V)RT` …..(Eq. ii) If concentration =c mol `L^(-1)` OR mol/`dm^3` `therefore` p=cRT=[gas]RT ...(Eq. iii) where , R=0.0831 bar L `mol^(-1) K^(-1)` where, p = Pressure in pascal, n = Number of mol of the gas, V = Volume of gas `m^3` T = Temperature in Kelvin, `therefore n/V`= Concentration expressed in mol/`m^3` `therefore` At constant temperature, the p of the gas is proportional to its concentration p`prop`[gas], `1_"Pascal"=1 Nm^(-2)` and 1 bar = `10^5` Pa 1.013 bar =1 atm . |
