1. Ethanol and 2,6-dimethylphenol both have hydroxyl groups that can be deprotonated by a base. Why does ethanol act as a solven

Anions are solvated in protic hydrogen-bonding solvents (such as ethanol). Consequently, nucleophiles are less reactive. Since soft nucleophiles are less strongly solvated than hard nucleophiles, these solvents boost the relative reactivity of soft anions.

<h3>Ethanol is either a nucleophile or a base.</h3>

The ethanol is a base  Because carbocation is an extremely reactive species, a base or nucleophile as weak as ethanol can replace or remove it. SN1 and E1 would not be conceivable without the carbocation or a strong departing group.

<h3>How do solvents impact anionic nucleophile's reactivity?</h3>

In polar aprotic solvents, nucleophilic substitution reactions of anionic nucleophiles often proceed more quickly. The normal relative reactivity order in such solvents (like DMSO)is Anions are solvated in protic hydrogen-bonding solvents (such as ethanol). Consequently, nucleophiles are less reactive.

Answer:

The mass of 10 cm³of a 0.4 g/dm³ solution of sodium carbonate is 0.004 grams

Explanation:

The question is with regards to density calculations

The density of the given sodium carbonate solution, ρ = 0.4 g/dm³

The volume of the given solution of sodium carbonate, V = 10 cm³ = 0.01 dm³

Density \ of \ an \ object, \rho  = \dfrac{The \ mass \ of \ the \ object, \ m }{\ The \ volume \ of \ the \ object, \ V }

\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}

Therefore, we have;

The \ Density \ of \ the \ sodium \ carbonate, \ \rho  = 0.4 \ g/dm^3 =  \dfrac{m }{ 0.01 \ dm^3 }

The mass, "m", of the sodium carbonate in  = ρ×V = 0.4 g/dm³ × 0.01 dm³ = 0.004 g

The mass of 10 cm³ (10 cm³ = 0.01 dm³) of a 0.4 g/dm³ solution of sodium carbonate, m = 0.004 g.

Look up the active ingredient in baking soda. Write a molecular and net ionic equation when that active ingredient is mixed with
Volgvan

Answer:

The active ingredients in baking soda (NaHCO3) are

Na^+ and HCO3^-

when Baking soda reacts with Acetic acid

Molecular equation

 NaHCO3(aq) + CH3COOH(aq) → Na(CH3COO)(aq) + CO2(g) +H2O(l)

Ionic equation

Na^+ + HCO3^-  + CH3COOH →   Na^+ + CH3COO^-  +CO2 + H2O

as Na^+ is present on both sides so it will cancel out and the net ionic equation will be

HCO3^-(aq) + CH3COOH(aq) → CH3COO^-(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

What would the product look like if ROOR weren't used?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The least substituted product (anti-Markovnikov)

Explanation:

The ROOR is used in the addition reaction of HBr to an organic substance (an alkene for example).

In normal conditions (with no ROOR) the adition of the halogen will be performed in the most substituted C (following the rule of Markovnikov that says that the stability increases with the more substituted is the C).

But in presence of ROOR, the reaction takes other mechanism (free radicals), and the product in this case is the one with the Br added in the least substituted C.
