Answer:
Experiments to determine mechanisms involve looking at indirect evidence to help support or disprove a proposed mechanism.
Most intermediates are not typically isolated to determine reaction mechanisms.
Carbocations are very reactive and are typically not isolated for analysis.
Scientists can prove that a specific mechanism exists.
Evidence of intermediates sometimes can be seen using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Explanation:
The study of reaction mechanism and chemical kinetics often form the main thrust of study in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.
We often want to know the actual processes involved in the conversion of one specie to another. Unfortunately, this information may have to be obtained indirectly by certain chemical reactions or by the use of new instrumental methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Many organic reactions have carbocation intermediates. These carbocations are relatively short-lived and are transient intermediates which are rarely isolated unless they are isolated in a molecular cage using a macromolecule or in superacids.
By intensive study, scientists can proof or disprove the authenticity of any proposed mechanism.
We must know that a transition state has partial bonds. It is often an extremely short-lived specie which cannot be isolated.
Explanation:
<h3>The mixture in which the particles of the components of solute and solvent are equally mixed is called homogeneous mixture. </h3>
Answer:
Elements in same column of periodic table have same properties.
Explanation:
The elements in the same group have same number of valance electrons thus have similar properties.
Consider the elements of group two i.e alkaline earth metals. All have two valance electrons and show similar properties.
Magnesium, barium, calcium etc.
All alkaline earth metals form salt with halogens.e.g,
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
Ba + Br₂ → BaBr₂
Mg + Br₂ → MgBr₂
Ca + Br₂ → CaBr₂
They react with oxygen and form oxides of respective metal.
2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
2Ba + O₂ → 2BaO
2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO
these oxides form hydroxide when react with water,
MgO + H₂O → Mg(OH)₂
BaO + H₂O → Ba(OH)₂
CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂
With nitrogen it produced nitride,
3Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂
3Ba + N₂ → Ba₃N₂
3Ca + N₂ → Ca₃N₂
With acid like HCl,
Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂
Ba + 2HCl → BaCl₂ + H₂
Ca + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂
Silver. For the most part only metals can have metallic bonding. Ammonium chloride has ionic bonding (poly-atomic cation + nonmetal=ionic bonding), iodine is a diatomic element so it will form a covalent bond with itself, and barium oxide has ionic bonding (metal+nonmetal or metal+poly-atomic anion=ionic bonding).
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
