Land surfaces are much darker so they absorb much more solar radiation than water. Most of the solar radiation is reflected by water which leads in reflecting the solar radiation that reaches the surface back in to the atmosphere.

How does this occur?

Due to lower specific heat of sand it heats up faster than water. On the other hand water requires one calorie of energy to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. Sand takes 19 calories per gram to raise the temperature of the sand by 1 degree Celsius. While Sand requires fewer calories to raise its temperature one degree Celsius and that’s why it heats up faster than water.

Land absorbs more solar radiation the land surface retains more heat as do the vegetation for energy.

Therefore, during this experiment the sand heats up much faster than water. This happens because of the specific heat of the sand that initiates the heating rapidly under the lamp as the time passes.

When methyloxirane is treated with HBr, the bromide ion attacks the less substituted position. However, when phenyloxirane is tr

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

See explanation and picture below

Explanation:

First, in the case of methyloxirane (Also known as propilene oxide) the mechanism that is taking place there is something similar to a Sn2 mechanism. Although a Sn2 mechanism is a bimolecular substitution taking place in only step, the mechanism followed here is pretty similar after the first step.

In both cases, the H atom of the HBr goes to the oxygen in the molecule. You'll have a OH⁺ in both. However, in the case of methyloxirane the next step is a Sn2 mechanism step, the bromide ion will go to the less substitued carbon, because the methyl group is exerting a steric hindrance. Not a big one but it has a little effect there, that's why the bromide will rather go to the carbon with more hydrogens. and the final product is formed.

In the case of phenyloxirane, once the OH⁺ is formed, the next step is a Sn1 mechanism. In this case, the bond C - OH⁺ is opened on the side of the phenyl to stabilize the OH. This is because that carbon is more stable than the carbon with no phenyl. (A 3° carbon is more stable than a 2° carbon). Therefore, when this bond opens, the bromide will go there in the next step, and the final product is formed. See picture below for mechanism and products.
