classify the following compounds as chiral, achiral (but not meso), or meso. 1st structure: 2nd structure: 3rd structure:

1st structure - Meso

2nd structure - Chiral

3rd structure - achiral

Explanation:

In the 1st structure there is nitrogen atom bonded with 4 different groups. It is Meso compound. In the second structure a carbon atom is attached with hydroxide molecule OH and has four different environment. It is Chiral compound. In the third structure no atom have different atom or group surrounding it. Therefore it is Achiral compound.

as given the equation is

2al + 6 hcl > 2 alcl3 + 3 h2(g)

as per equation two moles of aluminum reacts with six moles of hcl to give two moles of alcl3 and three moles of hydrogen gas

given: three moles of al are present and 7 moles of hcl

for three moles of aluminum nine moles of hcl will be required

however as 7 moles of hcl are present so the limiting reagent is hcl

hcl is going to decide the number of moles of product formed

when six moles of hcl are present = 3 moles of h2 are formed

when one mole of hcl is present == 3/6 mole sof h2 will be formed

when 7 moles of hcl are present = 3 x 7/ 6 moles of h2 will be formed = 3.5 moles of h2
