Acetic acid activates the bromine and makes it a better electrophile.

<h3>What is bromination?</h3>

When a substance undergoes bromination, bromine is added to the compound as a result of the chemical reaction. After bromination, the result will have different properties from the initial reactant.

<h3>Why is 15M acetic acid used as a solvent for bromination?</h3>

DCM (dichloromethane) requires more time. Acetic acid has protons that can give one of the Br (bromine) a positive charge and activate it. There is a brief loss of aromaticity that calls for high energy activation.

The bromine is activated by acetic acid, which improves its electrophilic properties.

<h3>What is meant by bromination?</h3>

When a material gets brominated, the chemical reaction causes bromine to be added to the compound.
The outcome will differ from the initial reactant in terms of its properties after bromination.

<h3>Why is 15M acetic acid employed as a bromination solvent?</h3>

DCM (dichloromethane) takes longer to process.
One of the Br (bromine) atoms can be activated by the protons in acetic acid, which can give it a positive charge.
Short-lived loss of aromaticity necessitates high-energy activation.

<h3>For the reaction of bromination, refer to the attached file.</h3>

Which organism is most reliant on other organisms, natural processes, or both for reproduction? Explain your answer.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Asexual versus Sexual Reproduction

Many organisms can reproduce sexually as well as asexually. Aphids, slime molds, sea anemones, and some species of starfish are examples of animal species with this ability.Asexual versus Sexual Reproduction

Which symbol is generally used to represent a sugar in simple models of nucleotides?

Bumek [7]

The sugar that occurs in nucleotides tends to be a 5 carbon sugar called ribose or deoxyribose and tends to be represented by a pentagon of 5 carbons joined to oxygen and OH to form part of the helix forming nucleic acids. The nucleotides are what constitutes the DNA and RNA which control genetic characteristics.

Find the density if the volume is 15 mL and the mass is 8.6 g. (5 pts)

allsm [11]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{0.57 g/mL; 3.7 mL; 6.6 g; 0.366 g/mL}}$

Explanation:

1. Density from mass and volume

$\text{Density} = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{\text{8.6 g}}{\text{15 mL}} = \text{0.57 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.57 g/mL}}$}$

2. Volume from density and mass

$V = \text{9.7 g}\times\dfrac{\text{1 mL}}{\text{2.6 g}} = \text{3.7 mL}\\\\\text{The volume is $\large \boxed{\textbf{3.7 mL}}$}$

3. Mass from density and volume

$\text{Mass} = \text{4.1 cm}^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1.6 g}}{\text{1 cm}^{3}} = \textbf{6.6 g}\\\\\text{The mass is $\large \boxed{\textbf{6.6 g}}$}$

4. Density by displacement

Volume of water + object = 24.6 mL

Volume of water =<u> 12.8 mL</u>

Volume of object = 11.8 mL

$\rho = \dfrac{\text{4.3 g}}{\text{11.8 mL}} = \text{0.36 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.36 g/mL}}$}$

Your drawing showing water displacement using a graduated cylinder should resemble the figure below.

What will happen to the temperature, as<br> thermal energy is added to the ice over time?<br> OK

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

When you heat ice, its temperature rises, but as soon as the ice starts to melt, the temperature stays constant until all the ice has melted. This happens because all the heat energy goes into breaking the bonds of the ice's crystal lattice structure.

Explanation:

Shards of ice fly from the sculptor’s chisel. As the crowd

looks on, a swan slowly emerges from a massive block of ice. As

the day wears on, however, drops of water begin to fall from the

sculpture. Drip by drip, the sculpture is transformed into a puddle of liquid water. What makes matter change from one state to

another? To answer this question, you need to think about the

particles that make up matter.

Energy Simply stated, energy is the ability to do work or cause

change. The energy of motion is called kinetic energy. Particles

within matter are in constant motion. The amount of motion of

these particles depends on the kinetic energy they possess. Particles

with more kinetic energy move faster and farther apart. Particles

with less energy move more slowly and stay closer together.

The total kinetic energy of all the particles in a sample of

matter is called thermal energy. Thermal energy, an extensive

property, depends on the number of particles in a substance as

well as the amount of energy each particle has. If either the

number of particles or the amount of energy in each particle

changes, the thermal energy of the sample changes. With identically sized samples, the warmer substance has the greater thermal energy. In Figure 7, the particles of hot water from the hot

spring have more thermal energy than the particles of snow on

the surrounding ground.
