Identify which of the following two reactions you would expect to occur more rapidly: (1) addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-pentene

or (2) addition of HBr to 4-methyl-1-pentene. Explain your choice. Addition of HBr to should be more rapid because the reaction can proceed via a carbocation. In contrast, addition of HBr to proceeds via a less stable, carbocation.

Answer:

(1) addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-pentene

Explanation:

In this case, we will have the formation of a <u>carbocation</u> for each molecule. For molecule 1 we will have a <u>tertiary carbocation</u> and for molecule 2 we will have a <u>secondary carbocation</u>.

Therefore the <u>most stable carbocation</u> is the one produced by the 2-methyl-2-pentene. So, this molecule would react faster than 4-methyl-1-pentene. (See figure)

Answer: 1.  C. polar covalent: electrons shared between silicon and sulfur but attracted more to the sulfur

2. B)  NH_3

3. B) Fluorine

Explanation:

1. A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of sulphur- electronegativity of silicon = 2.5 -1.8 = 0.7

Thus as electronegativity difference is less than 1.7 , the cond is polar covalent and as electronegativity of sulphur is more , the electrons will be more towards sulphur.

2. A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Example: NH_3

Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electrons from metals to non metals. Example: Mg_3N_2 , AlCl_3 and LiBr

3.  For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here K is having an oxidation state of +1 and as the compound formed is KZ, the oxidation state of non metallic element Z should be -1. Thus the element Z is flourine which exists as diatomic gas F_2

What are some indicators that a chemical reaction is occurring? Check all that apply.
Olin [163]

Answer: Some signs of a chemical change are a change in color and the formation of bubbles. The five conditions of chemical change: color chage, formation of a precipitate, formation of a gas, odor change, temperature change.

True or false: the Molecules in a solid have MORE thermal energy than the molecules in a gas?
katrin2010 [14]

That's false. Because, the molecules in a solid are compacted too tightly together that they don't have all that extra space that a gas would. Molecules in a gas would have more thermal energy because they have all that space to move around in. The more they move around, the hotter it gets. The less that they move around, and the more that they put and packed together, the colder it's going to be.

Hope this helped you!! (:
