When chlorine gas is passed through a potassium bromide solution, bromine forms in a potassium chloride solution?

1 answer:

4 0

Yes because chlorine is more reactive than bromine, it displaces bromine in potassium bromide solution.

Explain Wurtz reaction with an example ~

Deffense [45]

Wurtz reaction is a special type of organic reaction involving the synthesis of aliphatic hydrocarbons from two molecules of an alkyl halide and two atoms of sodium in the presence of dry ether solution

Please bear in mind that wurtz reaction fails whenever tertiary alkyl halides are used.

An example of Wurtz reaction is given below:

2R – X + 2Na → R–R + 2Na + X−

<h3>What are organic compounds?</h3>

Organic compounds can simply be defined as those classes of organic molecules which contain carbon atoms covalently bonded to hydrogen atoms (C-H bonds).

Below are some few general characteristics of organic compounds:

All organic compounds contain carbon.

Most of them are flammable.

They are all soluble in non-polar solvents

Most organic compounds / substances are covalently bonded molecules

Some classes of organic compounds are:

Alkanes
Alkenes
Alkenes

So therefore, Wurtz reaction is a special type of organic reaction involving the synthesis of aliphatic hydrocarbons from two molecules of an alkyl halide and two atoms of sodium in the presence of dry ether solution

If hydrofluoric acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, which statement is most likely true?

Alchen [17]

Answer: The statement conjugate base of hydrofluoric acid is weaker than that of acetic acid is most likely true.

Explanation:

A strong acid upon dissociation gives a weak conjugate base. This can also be said as stronger is the acid, weaker will be its conjugate base or vice-versa.

Hydrofluoric acid is a strong base as it dissociates completely when dissolved in water.

For example, $HF \rightleftharpoons H^{+} + F^{-}$

The conjugate base is $F^{-}$ which is a weak base.

Acetic acid is a weak acid as it dissociates partially when dissolved in water. So, the conjugate base of acetic acid is a strong base.

$CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow CH_{3}COO^{-} + H^{+}$

Thus, we can conclude that the statement conjugate base of hydrofluoric acid is weaker than that of acetic acid is most likely true.
