- The compound α-tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, is a powerful antioxidant that may help to maintain the integrity of biological membranes. R.H. Bisby and A.W. Parker (J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 117, 5664 (1995)) studied the reaction of photochemically excited duroquinone with the antioxidant in ethanol. Once the duroquinone was photochemically excited, a bimolecular reaction took place at diffusion-limited rate. (a) Estimate the rate constant for a diffusion-limited reaction in ethanol. (b) The reported rate constant was 2.77 × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1. Estimate the critical reaction distance if the sum of diffusion coefficients is 1 × 10−9 m2 s−1.arrow_forwardDistinguish between kinetic and the rmodynamic control of a reaction.

(Science 238, 1670 (1987)) examined several weakly bound gas-phase complexes of ammonia in search of examples in which the H atoms in NH3 formed hydrogen bonds, but found none. For example, they found that the complex of NH3 and CO2 has the carbon atom nearest the nitrogen (299 pm away): the CO2 molecule is at right angles to the C–N ‘bond’, and the H atoms of NH3 are pointing away from the CO2. The magnitude of the permanent dipole moment of this complex is reported as 1.77 D. If the N and C atoms are the centres of the negative and positive charge distributions, respectively, what is the magnitude of those partial charges (as multiples of e)?arrow_forward
- R. Atkinson (J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 26, 215 (1997)) has reviewed a large set of rate constants relevant to the atmospheric chemistry of volatile organic compounds. The recommended rate constant for the bimolecular reaction of O2 with an alkyl radical R at 298 K is 4.7 × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1 for R = C2H5 and 8.4 × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1 for R = cyclohexyl.

The same four thermodynamic quantities can be determined for the dissolution of a sparingly soluble substance in water such as benzoic acid, but the numerical values are then quite different and reflect the differentiation between readily and sparingly soluble substances in water. Predict how you expect each of the four thermodynamic quantities for the dissolution of benzoic acid in water will differ from the values you determined for the dissolution process of potassium nitrate. Use for your prediction words like “larger” or “smaller”, “change sign” or “order of magnitude difference” and motivate your prediction in each case.
