Why a steel ship becomes magnetized as it is constructed?

Physics
1 answer:
Inessa [10]4 years ago
6 0
<em>Iron, and to a lesser degree, steel, can only become magnetised by passing an electrical current through it (an electromagnet). So a steel ship does not become magnetised in the accepted sense during construction. </em>

<span><em>However, any large mass of iron will affect the accuracy of a magnetic compass, causing it to deviate wildly from magnetic North. This problem was encountered when iron ships were first constructed in the mid-19 Century. It was overcome by mounting the compass in a 'binnacle', a housing containing two large soft iron balls either side of the compass itself, which counteracted the effect of the hull and balanced the compass so that it read correctly</em></span>

What is the purpose of nucleophilic substitution reactions of akyly halides experiment?
OleMash [197]

The purpose of nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides experiment is to demonstrate in the laboratory setting Nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides.

In this it is been  aimed to observe nucleophilic substitution reactions, SN1 and SN2 will by the addition of a solvent to mixtures of alkyl halides. In order to make this experiment effective a standard procedure is being used  and noted observations while each reaction occurred.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions are an important class of reactions that allow the interconversion of functional groups. For alcohols, the range of substitution reactions possible can be increased by utilizing the tosylates (R-OTs), an alternative method of converting the -OH to a better leaving group.
