<h3>Answer:</h3>

An electric current is used to decompose a substance.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Electrolysis

We can answer the question by asking ourselves important questions

First; What is electrolysis?

  • Electrolysis refers to the process through which molten or aqueous compound known as electrolytes are decomposed by passing electric current through them.

Second; What are electrolytes?

  • Electrolytes are substances in either molten or aqueous form and are good conductors of electric current.
  • Electrolytes are good conductors of electric current due to the presence of mobile ions.

Third: What happens during electrolysis?

  • Electrolytes are therefore decomposed by passing electric current through them resulting to formation of new elements or molecules.
  • For example, when molten sodium chloride is decomposed by passing electric current through it, sodium metal is released at the cathode while chlorine is released at the anode.

Many electrophilic aromatic halogenations require the presence of aluminum trihalide (halide-chloride or bromide) as a catalyst.
mixas84 [53]

Answer: The aluminium trihalide assists in the heterolytic bond fission of the bromine molecule.

Explanation:

The electrophilic aromatic bromination of acetalinide with molecular bromine requires the formation of Br+. This specie is formed when an Aluminum trihalide reacts with bromine. The Br-Br bond breaks heterolytically such that charged species are produced. This Br+ participates in the electrophilic aromatic substitution and AlX4- is formed where X4 shows a tetrahalide complex of aluminium

Give the name and formula for the acid derived from each of the following anions:<br> (c) bromite
Travka [436]

The name of the acid is Bromous acid and the Formula of the acid is HBrO₂.

<h3>What is Acids ? </h3>

Acids is defined as substances that is able to donate a proton or hydrogen ion to other substance. Acids acts as proton donor.

<h3>What is Oxoacids ? </h3>

An oxoacids is an acids that contains oxygen. It is also called oxyacids or ternary acids. Oxoacids are the acids of oxoanions.

If anion name contains the suffix ‘ate’ then replace ‘ate’ with ‘ic’.

If anion name contains the suffix ‘ite’ then replace ‘ite’ with ‘ous’.

Given anion is bromite. Formula of bromite is BrO₂⁻. It is an oxoanion.

Now write the name of acid. Here anion name contains the suffix ite so replace the ‘ite’ of bromite with ‘ous’.

The name of the acid is Bromous acid.   

Formula of the acid is HBrO₂.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The name of the acid is Bromous acid and the Formula of the acid is HBrO₂.
