A sample containing 43.98g of metal pellets is poured into a graduated cylinder initially containing 13.8 mL of water, causing t
he water level in the cylinder to rise to 21.3 mL. Calculate the density of the metal.
1 answer:
Answer:
5.9 g/cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
Mass of metal = 43.98 g
Initial level of water = 13.8 mL
Final level of water = 21.3 mL
Calculations:
The picture below illustrates what's happening in this experiment.
The water level was originally at 13.8 mL.
Then you added the metal. It fell to the bottom and displaced its volume of water.
The water level rose to 21.3 mL, so
Volume of metal = volume of displaced water
= 21.3 mL – 13.8 mL
= 7.5 mL
= 7.5 cm³
Density = mass/volume
= 43.98/7.5
= 5.9 g/cm³

Answer:
Sn2 mechanism reaction
Explanation:
In this case, we have a <u>primary substrate</u> (1-bromo-3,3-dimethylbutane). Because the <u>leaving grou</u>p "Br" is bonded to a <u>primary carbon</u>. Additionally, the nucleophile will come from the "NaI" (sodium iodide). This is an <u>ionic compound</u>, so, in solution, a cation and an anion would be produced. The anion would be the <u>nucleophile</u>.
Due to the primary substrate, we will have an <u>Sn2 reaction</u>. So, the attack of the nucleophile and the removal of the leaving group will take place in <u>1 step</u>. Producing a <u>"transition state"</u> and finally and the final product (1-iodo-3,3-dimethylbutane).
