Answer:

None of these

Explanation:

Friedel–Craft reaction is a reaction involves the attachment of substituents to the benzene ring.

Mechanism of the reaction of methylbenzene with 1-chlorodecane in the presence of ether and aluminum chloride :

Step -1 : Generation of stable carbocation.

Aluminium chloride acts as Lewis acid which removes the chloride ion from the alkyl halide forming carbocation. The primary carbocation thus formed gets rearranged to secondary primary carbocation which is more stable due to hyperconjugation.

Step-2: Attack of the ring to the carbocation

The pi electrons of the ring behave as a nucleophile and attacks the carbocation. Since, the group attached on the benzene is methyl (+R effect) , the attack is from the ortho and the para positions. Para product is more stable due to less steric hinderance.

The product formed is shown in mechanism does not mention in any of the options.

So, None of these is the answer

Answer:

c. 1-methyl-4-decylbenzene

Explanation:

Hello,

On the attached document you will find the major product for the stated chemical reaction even thought the listed product are possible, nonetheless, by cause of the steric hindrance, the most probable and abundant product is the shown one, 1-methyl-4-decylbenzene, as it has more space for the decyl to become part of the ring. Such reaction is a typical Friedel-Crafts alkylation of an aromatic compound whereas aluminium chloride is used as the catalyst to attach the alkyl chloride to the aromatic ring.

Best regards.

What is equal to the number of particles in 36 grams of carbon-12?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will  use the Avogadro numbers.

The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance.  According to this,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole =  6.022×10²³  atoms.

18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

we are given 36 g of C-12. So,

12 g of C-12 = 1 mole

24 g of C-12 =  2 mole

36 g of C-12 = 3 mole

So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.

Its chemical formula H2O, indicates that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected by covalent bonds. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°. "Water" is the name of the liquid state of H2O at standard conditions for temperature and pressure.

According to the balanced equation shown below, 1.00 mole of oxalic acid, h2c2o4, reacts with _________ moles of permanganate io
zheka24 [161]
The balanced equation that shows the reaction between oxalic acid and permanganate ion in an acidic medium is: 2MnO4- + 5H2C2O4 + 6H+ -> 2Mn(2+) + 10CO2 + 8H2O. Thus, 1 mole of oxalic acid reacts with 0.4 mole of permanganate ion. This was obtained using stoichiometry:

1 mol H2C2O4 x (2 mol MnO4-/ 5 mol H2C2O4) = 0.4 mol MnO4- 

In this redox reaction, the permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion.
