What alkene reacts the fastest with HBr?

Chemistry

Explanation:

The reaction with HBr is a nucleofilic adition with the following steps:

  • Step 1: Carbocation formation
  • Step 2: Product formation (addition of Br-)

In the first step, the more sustituted the carbocation is the more stable. Meaning this that the most stable will be a terciary C (such as in ter buthene), the  less stable the primary C (ethene for example) and between them, the secondary C (propene).

Analizing that and knowing that this mechanism of reaction follows the rule of Markovnikov, you can determine the reaction speed of an alkene.

Also the more resonance intermediates it has, the slower the reacrion is.

The first step in the reaction is the double bond of the Alkene going after the H of HBr. This protonates the Alkene via Markovnikov's rule, and forms a carbocation. The stability of this carbocation dictates the rate of the reaction. 

<span>So to solve your problem, protonate all your Alkenes following Markovnikov's rule, and then compare the relative stability of your resulting carbocations. Tertiary is more stable than secondary, so an Alkene that produces a tertiary carbocation reacts faster than an Alkene that produces a secondary carbocation.

Which vein carries oxygenated blood back into the heart?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The veins that carry oxygenated bloof back into the heart are the pulmonary arteries.

Explanation:

Oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs back into the left atrium (LA), or the left upper chamber of the heart, through four pulmonary veins. Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber.
