Answer:-
The reaction of 2-bromopropane reacts with sodium iodide in acetone is an example of Sn2 reaction.
The I - attacks from backside to give the transition state for both.
If we compare the transition state for cyclobromopropane 2-bromopropane then we see in case of cyclobromopropane transition state, one of the H is very close to the incoming I -.
This results in steric strain and less stability of the transition state. Hence 2-bromopropane reacts with sodium iodide in acetone over 104 times faster than bromocyclopropane.
Answer:
Crystalline solids, or crystals, have distinctive internal structures that in turn lead to distinctive flat surfaces, or faces. The faces intersect at angles that are characteristic of the substance. When exposed to x-rays, each structure also produces a distinctive pattern that can be used to identify the material.
Explanation:
Answer: Isotopes of an atom are different because they have different atomic masses and different number of neutrons within their nucleus. They are the same since they will always have the same atomic number/number of protons in their nucleus.
Explanation:
1,000 mL is the same as 10 dL.
Answer:
(a) oxygen
(b) 154g (to 3sf)
(c) 79.9% (to 3sf)
Explanation:
mass (g) = moles × Mr/Ar
note: eqn means chemical equation
(a)
moles of P = 84.1 ÷ 30.973 = 2.7152 moles
moles of O2 = 85÷2(16) = 2.65625 moles
Assuming all the moles of P is used up,
moles of O2 / moles of phosphorus = 5/4 (according to balanced chemical eqn)
moles of O2 required = 5/4 × 2.7152moles = 3.394 moles (more than supplied which is 2.65625moles)
therefore there is insufficient moles of O2 and the limiting reactant is oxygen.
(b)
moles of P2O5 produced
= 2/5 (according to eqn) × 2.7152
= 1.08608moles
mass of P2O5 produced
= 1.08608 × [ 2(30.973) + 5(16) ]
= 154.164g
= approx. 154g to 3 sig. fig.
(c)
% yield = actual/theoretical yield × 100%
= 123/154 × 100%
= 79.870%
= approx. 79.9% (to 3sf)
