Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ethers react with HI at high temperature to produce an alky halide and an alcohol.
R-OR' + HI ⟶ R-I + H-OR'
<em>Benzylic ethers</em> react by an Sₙ1 mechanism by forming the stable benzyl cation.
- PhCH₂-OR + HI ⟶ PhCH₂-O⁺(H)R + I⁻ Protonation of the ether
- PhCH₂-O⁺(H)R ⟶ PhCH₂⁺ + HOR Sₙ1 ionization of oxonium ion
- PhCH₂⁺ + I⁻ ⟶ PhCH₂-I Nucleophilic attack by I⁻
If there is excess HI, the alcohol formed in Step 2 is also converted to an alkyl iodide:
ROH +HI ⟶ R-I + H-OH
Thus, benzyl ethyl ether reacts to form benzyl iodide (a) and ethanol (b).
The ethanol reacts with excess HI in an Sₙ2 reaction to form ethyl iodide (c).
Since you have not included the figures with the diagrams to select the right answer, I am going to explain the main differences that lead you to differentiate electrochemical cells.
There are four important terms needed to identify the electrochemical cells: electrolysis, electrochemical cells, electrolitc cells and voltaic cells.
1) Electrochemical cell: is a device that uses a chemical reaction (redox reaction) to produce electricity or that uses electricity to product a chemical reaction.
2) Electrolysis: is the production of a chemical reaction using electricity.
3) Electroltic cell: is one of the two types of electrochemical cell. It is that in which electricity is used to produce the chemical reaction, i.e. where electrolysis happens. For example, the decomposition of sodium chloride brines is done in an electrolitic cell.
4) Galvanic cell: is the other type of electrochemical cell. It is that in which chemical reactions (redox reactions) produce electricity. The battery of the car is an example of a galvanic cell.
Here you are asked to identify which diagram shows a voltaic cell.So, you need to lool at:
- a redox reaction is happening
- this redox reaction is producing electricity (not that the electricity is producing the reaction)
Remember that a redox reaction is where some atoms are being reduced (gaining electros) and others are being oxidized (losing electrons).
Tha information will let you to choose the righ diagram.
<em>Displacement reactions</em>
As you said, the answer is 150.
But in all the numbers, there's a comma with two zeros, and so you have to put them in your answer : 150,00
They are the significative numbers.
Hope it helps
