Answer:
nitrogen
Explanation:
The stoichiometry of the reaction says that and
react 3:1 to form 2 moles of
, so, if you have 3,5 moles of H, which is equal to 1,75 moles of
, and 5 moles of N, which are equal to 2,5 moles of
. only
=0.583 moles of
, will react, leaving <em>1.917 moles of </em>
<em>unreacted</em>, and forming 0.583*2=1.166 moles of
Answer:
The electrophile is the hydroxide free radical
Explanation:
The hydroxylation of benzene and benzene derivatives using hydrogen peroxide proceeds in the presence of an acidic catalyst. The electrophile in this reaction is the hydroxyl free radical generated in an initial step of the reaction.
This is actually a free radical reaction. The hydroxyl radical previously generated reacts with the benzene ring to yield a radical that undergoes further rearrangement to yield the product phenol. The intermediate, shown as part of this reaction mechanism (refer to image attached) is a specie in which the odd electron is delocalized over the entire benzene ring. Loss of a proton completes the reaction mechanism yielding the corresponding phenol.
