Elements in the same group have similar reactivities. For example, elements in group 1 are highly reactive, since they can all take in 7 electrons. Hope I helped!

When methyloxirane is treated with HBr, the bromide ion attacks the less substituted position. However, when phenyloxirane is tr
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

See explanation and picture below

Explanation:

First, in the case of methyloxirane (Also known as propilene oxide) the mechanism that is taking place there is something similar to a Sn2 mechanism. Although a Sn2 mechanism is a bimolecular substitution taking place in only step, the mechanism followed here is pretty similar after the first step.

In both cases, the H atom of the HBr goes to the oxygen in the molecule. You'll have a OH⁺ in both. However, in the case of methyloxirane the next step is a Sn2 mechanism step, the bromide ion will go to the less substitued carbon, because the methyl group is exerting a steric hindrance. Not a big one but it has a little effect there, that's why the bromide will rather go to the carbon with more hydrogens. and the final product is formed.

In the case of phenyloxirane, once the OH⁺ is formed, the next step is a Sn1 mechanism. In this case, the bond C - OH⁺ is opened on the side of the phenyl to stabilize the OH. This is because that carbon is more stable than the carbon with no phenyl. (A 3° carbon is more stable than a 2° carbon). Therefore, when this bond opens, the bromide will go there in the next step, and the final product is formed. See picture below for mechanism and products.

A student is working on an assignment exploring the characteristics and uses of titanium. He notes in his assignment that it is
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Acknowledge the source of relative weight of titanium.

Explanation:

Titanium is a chemical element which durable form of metal. Titanium is 45% lighter than steel. Titanium is made by combination of multiple elements. Titanium is very difficult to extract and this is the reason this element is considered expensive. The students examining the titanium must record the weight of titanium before exploring the characteristics and properties.

What was Ernest Rutherford's experiment?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.

Explanation:

In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.

He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.

2nd part of the other one plz help
Natalija [7]

18. Reaction will occur.

19. Reaction Will occur.

20. Reaction will occur.

21. Reaction will occur.

22. Reaction won't occur.

23. Reaction will occur.

24. Reaction will occur.

25. Reaction won't occur.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The reaction rate of the metals with water, steam, acid, or hydroxides or their inert behavior towards them are noted in the metal activity series.

It contains all the metals one after the other which and the upper metal can replace the lower metal from its salt.

Calcium can replace hydrogen from acid, so the reaction will occur in 18. The products formed are calcium phosphate and hydrogen gas.

Chlorine is more reactive than bromine. So it can replace bromine from its salt to from bromine gas and magnesium chloride.

Aluminium can replace iron from its salt. So it will form aluminium oxide and iron metal. This reaction is used to obtain iron from ores.

Zinc can replace hydrogen from acid. So the products will be zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

Chromium cannot displace hydrogen form water. So the reaction won't occur.

Tin can replace hydrogen form acid. So the reaction will proceed.

Magnesium will replace platinum from its salt. So magnesium oxide and platinum will form.

Bismuth cannot replace hydrogen from acid. So the reaction won't proceed.
