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.

Which of the following statements concerning equilibrium constants is true? The equilibrium constant of the reverse reaction is
Brut [27]

Answer:

When the coefficients in a balanced chemical reaction are multiplied by two, the equilibrium constant is not affected.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a reaction is known to remain steady.

Even if all the coefficients of all the species in the reaction are multiplied by two, the value of the equilibrium constant will reamin the same because the equilibrium position will not change as a result of that.
