Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
Answer:
Because both CaCl2 and CaBr2 both contain elements (Chlorine and Bromine) from the same group (group 7)
Explanation:
Elements are placed into different groups in the periodic table. Elements in the same group are those that have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell and as a result will behave similar chemically i.e. will react with other elements in the same manner.
Chlorine and Bromine are two elements belonging to group 7 of the periodic table. They are called HALOGENS and they have seven valence electrons in their outermost shell. Hence, when they form a compound with Calcium, a group two element, these compounds (CaCl2 and CaBr2) will possess similar properties because they have elements that are from the same group (halogen group).
Answer:
3.37 × 10²³ molecules
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 100 g
Number of molecules = ?
Solution:
Number of moles of C₆H₁₂O₆:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 100 g/ 180.16 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.56 mol
Number of molecules:
1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
0.56 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol
3.37 × 10²³ molecules
Answer: D!! ( difference in the potential energy of the reactants and products )
Explanation:
i have the same test
Well, these particles happens to be small, like REALLY small. So microscopically small they aren't picked up or observed my the naked eye. also the vibrations are in an atomic scale which is also VERY tiny This goes for all solids too.
