In radical chlorination of alkanes, non-equivalent hydrogens react with chlorine atoms at different rates. At 35 Degree C, primary secondary, and tertiary c-H bonds react at relative rates of 1 : 3.9 : 5.2 respectively. These are conditions of kinetic control where product ratios are determined by relative rates of formation. For example, if A is formed twice as fast as B, the A:B product ratio will be 2. consider chlorination of the alkane below at 35 Degree c. a.) Specify the most reactive -H bond(s), a-c. Two non-equivalent c-H bonds of comparable reactivity should be separated by commas, i. e. a, c.

b.)Specify the site of chlorination in the major monochloro substitution product, a-c. Two products that form in comparable quantities should be separated by commas, i. e. a, c

  remember that hf is only the energy of one photon. not two. not three. one.  1) 5.12 * 10^3 photons  find the energy of one photon, then determine how many photons are needed to reach the sensitivity.  e = hf  = (6.626 * 10^-34 js)(5.95 * 10^19 hz)  = 3.94247 * 10^-14 j per photon  (2.02 * 10^-10 j) / (3.94247 * 10^-14 j/photon) = 5123.69149 photons  round to three sig figs.  2) 5.77 * 10^-17 j  energy of pulse = energy per photon * number of photons  = hfn  = (6.626 * 10^-34 js)(1.66 * 10^13 hz)(5250)  = 5.774559 * 10^-17 j  round to three sig figs.  3) 4.07 * 10^8 kj/mol  10^12 pm = 1 m  c = fλ  f = c/λ  e = hf  = hc/λ  = [(6.626 * 10^-34 js)(3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (2.94 * 10^-12 m)](1 kj/1000 j)(6.02 * 10^23 photons/mol)  = 40702571.4 kj/mol  round to three sig figs.  4) 9.94 * 10^-1 m  e = hc/λ  λ = hc / e  = (6.626 * 10^-34 js)(3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (2.00 * 10^-25 j)  = 0.9939 m  round to three sig figs.  5) 9.06 * 10^3 photons  energy of pulse = energy per photon * number of photons  number of photons = energy of pulse / energy per photon  = energy of pulse / (hf)  = (3.87 * 10^-13 j) / [(6.626 * 10^-34 js)(6.45 * 10^16 hz)]  = 9055.23695 photons  round to three sig figs.  6) 2.78 * 10^-15 j  this is problem 1, except in reverse.  sensitivity = minumum number of photons * energy per photon  = (5930)(6.626 * 10^-34 js)(7.077 * 10^14 hz)  = 2.78070758 × 10^-15 j  round to three sig figs.

Ithink that the use of creativity in the sciences entails that one produce something out of nothing or from another thing. with this, i think that the he wrote down his results as four parts of the atomic theory is the manifestation of the  creativity of john dalton.
