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.

Refer to the attached image for bromination reaction.

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>

Sati [7]

Answer:

C5H12

Explanation:

In organic chemistry the boiling point of 309 k is of fifth member of alkane series which Pentane whose molecular mass is 72 g/mol.  Thus, we can say that the  molecular formula of the compound which has boiling point 309 K is C5H12.
