Peroxide Iodide Reaction Kinetics - Suggesting a series of steps

(See attached file for full problem description) Peroxide Iodide Reaction Kinetics The reaction represented stoichiometrically by the equation: H2O2 + 2HI  I2 + 2H2O (1) Follows second-order kinetics with the first (rate determining) step: H2O2+ I-  H2O + IO- ...continues

Use MO Theory

Use simple MO Theory (LCAO-MO) to explain why the dissociation energy of neutral N2 is greater than the N2+ ion, but that the dissociation energy of the O2+ ion is greater than the O2 neutral.

Huckel method

Consider the cyclic H3 molecule. Use the Huckel molecular orbital method to determine which of the following is the most and least stable. H3+, H3, and H3-

Mechanisms

1. Sn + 2I2 -> SnI4 (Ac2O,AcOH, reflux) 2. SnI4 + 2PPh3 -> (PPh3)2SnI4 (CHCl3) 3. SnI4 + (Me2SO)2 -> SnI4(Me2SO)2 (CH2Cl2) For these reactions I need mechanisms like "with curly arrows" like I-I bonds breaking and what happens next. I know how to do it in organic, but haven't done it in inorganic so I need some help. ...continues

Explanation of the 1H NMR spectrum

Was helped earlier on brainmass for the worked solution to assigning the 1H NMR spectrum of trans-2-methoxycyclohexanol as in the attachment. However, there are several questions that pops into my head when I look at it: 1.) Why is a and d, doublet of doublet of doublet? a interacts with b and d but d interacts with a onl ...continues

Consider the trans-to-cis isomerization of 1,2-dichloroethylene. If the Gibbs energy of formation is 27.34 and 22.11 kJ / mol for the trans and cis isomers, respectively, what is the percent of cis isomer present at equilibrium? You may ignore activity corrections.

Lennard-Jones potential

Potential energy of a diatomic molecule is given by the Lennard-Jones potential, where A and B are constants. Find in terms of A and B, (a) the value r0 at which the energy is minimum and (b)the energy required to break up a diatomic molecule.(c) Evaluate r0 in meters and E in electron volts for the H2 molecule. In the caluc ...continues
