The compound (A) is 2-bromo-pentane. See attached picture for the chemical diagram.

Explanation:

2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with bromine (Br₂) under UV light to form 2,2-dibromopentane and HBr. Also 2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with NaSH to from pentane-2-thiol, which have an asimetric carbon, and NaBr.

You may find the chemical reactions and diagrams of the compounds in the attached picture.

1. In which of these forms does acid precipitation reach the surface of<br><br> Earth?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Wet deposition

Explanation:

when the chemicals produced in the Earth can evaporate and reach the clouds, it will mixed with the water inside the clouds and form a slightly acid water than when is time to deposit the water into the Earth as snow, rain, fog or mist, the chemicals will travel with the water dissolved in it.

When they reach the soil, eventually, the water will  evaporate or will be absorbed by soil, so the chemicals that are left behind, will reach the surface of Earth.

Depending where the chemicals were deposit, they can contaminate the sea, or other water bodies, or soil areas of crops, buildings, etc.

Hope this info is useful.

Nata [24]

Answer:

1. How do metals and non-metals react with acids?

Ans : Non metals does not react with acids while metals react with acids and produce hydrogen gas that burns with a 'pop'sound.

2. Write and explain the chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium with sulphuric acid and aluminium with hydrochloric acid.

Magnesium + sulphuric acid = Hydrogen + salt

Mg(s) + H2SO4 (aq) MgSO 4(aq) +H2 (g)

Aluminium + Hydrochloric acid = Hydrogen + Aluminium chloride

2Al(s)+6HCl(aq)→2AlCl3(aq)+3H2(g)

What is the oxidizing agent in the following equation? Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) produces Al^+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Ag is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

oxidizing agent in the following equation?

Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) = Al+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)

Left side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

Right Side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

So it's balanced already good.

Define

oxidizing agent = An oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction.

Al is the reducing agent.

Ag is the oxidizing agent
