<span>Why methanol is soluble in acetone? This is a great question. The reason why methanol is soluble is a acetone is mainly because it is "Non-polar". Non-polar is what makes the acetone soluble to methanol. So it can basically go in circles.

A student calculates the mass of a piece of copper to be 8.3 grams. The actual mass of the copper is 10. grams. What is the perc

<u>Answer:</u>

17%

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mass of a piece of copper calculated by student = 8.3 grams

Actual mass of copper = 10 grams

We know the formula for the percent error:

Percentage error = (| experimental value - actual value | / actual value) * 100

So substituting the given values in the above formula:

Percent error = (|8.3 - 10| / 10) * 100 = (1.7/10) * 100 = 17%

Draw the major organic product of the regioselective reaction of 2-methyl-2-pentene with H2O in presence of H2SO4. You do not ha

Answer:

2-methyl-2-pentanol is produced as a major product

Explanation:

Double bond in 2-methyl-2-pentene is protonated first by consuming a proton from $H_{2}SO_{4}$ .
A carbocation intermediate is formed after protonation of double bond. Most stable carbocation is formed as a major intermediate.
Here a tertiary carbocation is formed as a major intermediate.
$H_{2}O$ gives subsequent nucleophilic addition to the carbocation intermediate and produce 2-methyl-2-pentanol as a major product.
Reaction mechanism and major organic product has been shown below.

$PO_4^{-3}$ and $NH^{4+}$ are polyatomic anions composed of two or more atoms.

<h3>What is a polyatomic anion?</h3>

A polyatomic ion is an ion composed of two or more atoms. Examples: The hydroxide cation ( $OH^-$ ) and the phosphate cation ( $PO_4^{3-}$ ) are both polyatomic ions.
