A chemical reaction is occurring inside a beaker and the temperature of the beaker is monitored. What would the contents of the
beaker be referred to as? the system the surroundings the boundary the universe
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The system is the Answer </em>
<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
System is the region which is taken into consideration.
While we perform a chemical reaction the system is the substance taken in the container.
So, A thermodynamic system is the amount of matter or the region in universe which is under the study.
The region outside the beaker are called as surroundings.
The beaker (the surface which separates the system from its surroundings) is said to be the boundary
System + surroundings = universe

Answer:
The possible structures are shown in figure.
Explanation:
The seven isomers that could be formed from the given compound due to radical halogenation are shown in the figure.
We have mentioned only chlorine as group for showing just the chiral nature of the compound.
A chiral compound has a carbon with all the four groups different from each other.
There are three structures which are chiral (as shown).
W is the brominated product
X is the chlorinated product.
1) W reacts readily in water to form a chiral substitution product Y, C8H17OH.
Reaction of a single enantiomer of W produces a single enantiomer of Y as the only substitution product.: It means that the substitution is SN2 which is possible if the compund is not tertiary.
2) X likewise reacts readily in water though at a slower rate than W; a chiral substitution product Z, C8H17OH, is again formed. Unlike W, however, reaction of a single enantiomer of X produces Z that is nearly racemic.
It means that it will undergo SN1 reaction,. So the alkyl halide must be tertiary.
The possible structures are shown in figure.
