Fluorine is the most active chemical element, reacting with virtually every element. It even reacts with the noble gases at high temperatures and pressures. The noble gases, or Group 18 (VIIIA), also known as the inert gases, generally do not react with other elements.
Explanation:
Answer:
The coefficient of Ca(OH)2 is 1
Explanation:
Step 1: unbalanced equation
Ca(OH)2 + HNO3 → Ca(NO3)2 + H2O
Step 2: Balancing the equation
On the right side we have 2x N (in Ca(NO3)2 ) and 1x N on the left side (in HNO3). To balance the amount of N on both sides, we have to multiply HNO3 by 2.
Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 → Ca(NO3)2 + H2O
On the left side we have 4x H (2xH in Ca(OH)2 and 2x H in HNO3), on the right side we have 2x H (in H2O). To balance the amount of H on both sides, we have to multiply H2O on the right side, by 2.
Now the equationis balanced.
Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 = Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O
The coefficient of Ca(OH)2 is 1
Dehydration is removal of water.
In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.
In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].
The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.
The process or mechanism can be understood as:
so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene
