When dipentyl ether is treated with HI, what type of reaction occurs? both SN1 and SN2 SN2 E1 SN1 E2

Chemistry

Answer:

SN2

Explanation:

The first step of ether cleavage is the protonation of the ether since ROH is a better leaving group than RO-.

The second step of the reaction may proceed by either SN1 or SN2 mechanism depending on the structure of the ether. Methyl and primary ethers react with HI by SN2 mechanism while tertiary ethers react with HI by SN1 mechanism. Secondary ethers react with HI by a mixture of both mechanisms.

Dipentyl ether is a primary ether hence when treated with HI, the reaction with HI proceeds by SN2 mechanism as explained above.

Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. It is often called the
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this case the answer would be

Water is a polar molecule with positive and negative side

Now since these negative and positives are present in the water molecule . In easy terms when a substance reacts with water .the negative part of water ( oxygen ) reacts with the positive part of the substance and the positive part of the water ( hydrogen) reacts with negative part of the substance .if you look at the reason . Water is held up by one of the strongest attraction forces available .since most substances have weaker attraction forces between them ,therefore water can easily overcome them with its forces. Thus giving it the ability to dissolve a variety of substances

How does scarcity impact society
g100num [7]

Answer:

a market/society is dictated by supply and demand and scarify affects the supply of a product because if something is more scarce/rare then usually there is a higher demand and a higher price. This impacts society because it affects the price of things and how much people are willing to give for it

Write the symbol for each of the following ions:
kap26 [50]

Answer:

a) _{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}

b) _{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}

c) _{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}

d) _{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}

Explanation:

For neutral atoms:

Atomic Number (Z)= number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number (A) = number of protons + number of neutrons

For ions with positive net charge:

Number of protons = Z + net charge

For ions with negative net charge:

Number of protons= Z - net charge

a) A = 71, Charge = +3

Number of electrons = 28

Number of protons = 28 +3 =31

_{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}

b)  A = 35, Z = 45+35=80, Charge = -1

Number of protons =35

Number of neutrons = 45

Number of electrons = 36

Charge = Number of protons- Number of electrons =35-36 = -1

_{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}

c)  Charge = +4

Number of electrons = 86

Number of protons = Z = 86+4 = 90

mass number = A = 90+142 = 232

_{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}

d)  Charge = +2

Atomic number = Number of protons = Z = 38

mass number = A = 87

_{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}
