A mineral is a naturally occurring , solid, crystalline substance with a specific chemical composition. Minerals are usually inorganic and are formed by ionic, covalent or metallic bonding. Ionic bonds are the dominant type of bonds in mineral strictures. 90% of all minerals are ionic compounds. Minerals bonded by covalent bonds are strong, for example carbon bonded together to form diamond. Metallic bonds are a type of covalent bonds where the atoms have a strong tendency to lose electrons and pack together as cations.

What is the final product of the following sequence of reactions? (CH3NCHOH PBr3 Mg diethyl ether 1) L N PCC 2) H3O * CH2Cl2 A)
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

(CH3)2CHCH2CHO

Explanation:

The reaction sequence begins with the reaction of isopropanol with phosphorus tribromide to yield isopropyl bromide. This is followed by reaction with Magnesium in ether solution giving a grignard reagent, isopropyl magnesium bromide. This is now attacked by oxirane and the epoxide ring opens, hydrolysis of the product, followed by oxidation using pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) yields the final product- (CH3)2CHCH2CHO

The detailed reaction mechanism is attached to this answer.

HELP.....From the information presented in the activity series of metals below (4 metals included), answer the following questio
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

a)there would be no reaction

Explanation:

The activity series of metals has many functions. The one applicable to this problem is that it can be used to determine whether a reaction will occur or not. Also, based on the positions of metals in the series, we can know how reactive a metal is compared to another.

In a single displacement reaction, a metal replaces another metal based on their position on the activity series. Metals that are higher in the series are generally more reactive than others below them and so will displace them.

 

Would aluminum replace magnesium to form a new compound or would there be no reaction?

Magnesium is higher than aluminum in the activity series. Therefore it is more reactive than aluminum. No reaction will occur.

Pennies are made of zinc coated with copper. Copper has a work function of 4.7 eV. The ozone layer blocks nearly all solar radia
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

yes  it can  λ =265  nm

Explanation:

Here we will use  the relationship

   E = h c/λ  ∴   λ  = E/ hc  where

                                          h= Plank's constant

                                           c= Speed of light

                                           λ = Wavelength = ?

Substituting

note need E in J ,

E = 4.7 eV x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/eV = 7.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

λ = 7.5 x 10 ⁻¹⁹ J / (  6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js x 3 x 10^8) =  2.65 x 10⁻⁷ m = 2.65

=  2.65 x 10⁻⁷ m x 1 x 10⁹ nm/m = 265 nm
