Equation 19.1 and treat problems of this typ e like galvanic cell problems. Write the proposed redox reaction, and identify the cathode and the anode. If the calculated is positive, the reaction will occur. If the calculated is negative, the reaction will not occur. 

Modeling of growth. Write the proposed mechanism, knowing that all the steps proceed at the caibonate-oxide interface. 

Hydrocarbon A has the formula C9HI2 and absorbs 3 equivalents of H to yield B, C9H]g, when hydrogenated over a Pd/C catalyst. On treatment of A with aqueous H2S04 in the presence of mercury(d), two isomeric ketones, C and D, are produced. Oxidation of A with KMn04 gives a mixture of acetic acid (CH3C02H) and the tricarboxylic acid E. Propose structures for compounds A-D, and write the reactions. 

Hydrocarbon A has the formula C Hg- It absorbs 8 equivalents of H2 on catalytic reduction over a palladium catalyst. On ozonolysis, only two products are formed oxalic acid (H02CC02H) and succinic acid (H02CCH2CH2C02H). Write the reactions, and propose a structure for A. 

Propose a structure for myrcene, and write the reactions, showing starting material and products. 

A fuel cell in which hydrogen reacts with nitrogen instead of oxygen is proposed, (a) Write the chemical equation for the reaction in water, which produces aqueous ammonia. 

To construct an overall rate law from a mechanism, write the rate law for each of the elementary reactions that have been proposed then combine them into an overall rate law. First, it is important to realize that the chemical equation for an elementary reaction is different from the balanced chemical equation for the overall reaction. The overall chemical equation gives the overall stoichiometry of the reaction, but tells us nothing about how the reaction occurs and so we must find the rate law experimentally. In contrast, an elementary step shows explicitly which particles and how many of each we propose come together in that step of the reaction. Because the elementary reaction shows how the reaction occurs, the rate of that step depends on the concentrations of those particles. Therefore, we can write the rate law for an elementary reaction (but not for the overall reaction) from its chemical equation, with each exponent in the rate law being the same as the number of particles of a given type participating in the reaction, as summarized in Table 13.3. 

Let s write the rate laws for the steps in a mechanism proposed for the gas-phase oxidation of NO to N02. Its overall rate law has been determined experimentally ... 

Write the overall reaction for the mechanism proposed below and identify any reaction intermediates. 

Lead(IV) acetate cleaves organic diols such as 2,3-dihydroxy-2,3-dimethylbutane in aqueous solution to give ketones. Write the overall reaction for the following proposed mechanism and identify any reaction intermediates ... 

Before you can dive into writing your proposal for the implementation of a mentoring scheme, you should embark on a research campaign. The aspects you need to obtain information about are ... 

Equipped with the information collated in the above steps, you can then draw up an implementation proposal. This proposal can be presented and /or given to potential sponsors in writing. T)q5ically you would do both, but the main factor to bear in mind when trying to influence sponsors is to aim the proposal at their unique preferences - you must analyse your audience and try to assess what information would convince them the most, and in what package it needs to be presented. 

Probe storage may be one of the unusual methods of the proposed recording since it does not involve the use of disks at all. Rather, probe storage technology could be implemented in something like the size of a t3q>ical semiconductor chip. It works like a scanning microscope, except that there is an array of these microscopes or probes that reads and writes the data. Each probe addresses an array of bits of information, and the probes write and read in parallel. Several media can-... 

Then the modelization of the hydrolysis kinetics requires at each time the knowledge of a and N. a can be calculated by writing the different relations of dissociation equilibria of water,polyacid and NH3 (produced by the hydrolysis reaction). We have proposed to determine at each reaction step and simulate the whole kinetics by using a Monte-Carlo method. (see ref.8 ). 

One of the most demanding exercises that scientists engage in is writing research proposals to obtain funding to support their work. Sketch out the structure of an expert system that would be able to help in this task.
