The reaction of 2-methylbutane with chlorine would yield how many monochloro derivatives (include stereoisomers)?

2 answers:

7 0

The reaction of 2 methylbutane with chlorine yield 5 monochloro derivative. Methylbutane has four carbon atoms which react with chlorine. The carbon with antibonding will be chiral and it will react with chlorine. there will be four difference group around chiral carbon hence it will have stereoisomers.

The reaction of 2 methyl butane with chlorine would yield 5 mono chloro derivatives.

Explanation

The organic compound of 2 methyl butane will have 5 C-H groups.

As butane means 4 CH group and one methyl at 2nd position means one more CH group, so totally 5 CH group is present.

These 5 CH group can react with chlorine and form 5 mono chloro derivatives like CH3Cl, CH2Cl etc.

The chirality present in the anti-bonded carbon atoms leads to the exhibition of stereoisomerism while forming mono chloro derivatives.

Thus, it can be confirmed that 5 mono chloro derivatives will be produced when 2 methyl butane reacts with chlorine.

Before we can use this equation for

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

2C₂H₆ + [7]O₂ → [4]CO₂ + [6]H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

C₂H₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Step 1:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 1

H = 12 H = 2

O = 2 O = 3

Step 2:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → 4CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 2

O = 2 O = 9

Step 3:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 12

O = 2 O = 14

Step 4:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 12

O = 14 O = 14

What can you tell by tracking oxidation numbers?

Alla [95]

<u>Answer</u>:

By tracking oxidation numbers we can identify the number electron in the atom

<u>Explanation</u>:

Tracking of electrons helps us to know when and how many electrons get transferred from one atom to other atom . Oxidation referred as the “loss of one or more electrons” by an atom. When the oxidation number of an element increases, there is a loss of electrons and that element is being oxidized. Oxidation numbers are usually written with the sign (+plus or −minus) followed by the magnitude, which is the opposite of charges on ions. In their elemental stage oxidation number of an atom is zero.

Propanoic acid has a boiling point of 141 °C, propanamide has a boiling point of 213 °C, and propanal has a boiling point of 48

deff fn [24]

Explanation:

As it is given that boiling point of propanamide is very high. So, reason for this is that easy formation of hydrogen bonds which are strong enough that we have to provide large amount of heat to break it.

As in $-NH_{2}$ , the hydrogen atoms which are present are positive in nature. Due to this they are able to form hydrogen bonds with the neighboring oxygen atom.

Hence, these bonds are so strong that high heat needs to given to break them.

A propanoic acid contain carboxylic group as the functional group. So, this group is also able to form hydrogen bonding as it forms a hydrogen bond between an acid group and hydroxyl group of neighboring molecule.

Hence, it will also require high heat to break the bond due to which there will be increase in boiling point.

In propanal, there is presence of aldehyde functional group and three carbon atoms chain which will not form strong bonding with the hydrogen atom of CHO. Due to this there will exist weak Vander waal's force that is not at all strong enough.

As a result, less energy will be needed to break the bonds in propanal. Hence, it has very low boiling point.
