A certain alkyl halide forms a carbocation that is more stable than the carbocation formed from isopropyl bromide. What is the m

Answer:

t-butyl bromide

Explanation:

As a general rule, carbocation stability depends on the number of substituents attached to central carbon. In isopropyl bromide, the carbocation formed is secondary carbocation, as Br group is the most likely to leave from isopropyl chain. The more stable carbocation would be one stablized by 3 carbon, or tertiary carbocation. The simplest of these would be t-butyl bromide which is carbon attached with 3 methyl groups

What is the importance of a chemical symbol?
scoray [572]

Answer:

Chemical symbols are used to standardize the 'language of chemistry' and to identify elements and atoms in a chemical formula easily. Chemical symbols consist of one or two letters, most often derived from the name of the element.

Calculate the number of moles in 23.8 grams of Nitrogen, N.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

n = 1.7 moles

Explanation:

Given mass, m = 23.8 grams

Molar mass of Nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Let there is n number of moles. We know that,

No. of moles = given mass/ molar mass

n=\dfrac{23.8}{14}\\\\n=1.7

So, there are 1.7 moles in 23.8 grams of Nitrogen.

lassify these bonds as ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent. Ionic Polar covalent Nonpolar covalent
jarptica [38.1K]

The question is incomplete, complete question is:

Classify these bonds as ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent.

Na-F

P-Cl

Cl-Cl

Answer:

Na-F  : The bond present is ionic bond.

PCl  : The bond present is polar covalent bond.

ClCl  : The bond present is non polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

1) Ionic bonds are defined as the bonds which are formed by the complete transfer of electrons from cation (positively charged ions) to anion (negatively charged ions). For Example: NaCl, BaSO_4 etc.

Ionic compound :This compound is formed when difference in electronegativity between the atoms is very large.

2) Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms. For Example: HCl, CH_4 etc.

Polar covalent compound: This compound is formed when difference in electronegativity between the atoms is present. When atoms of different elements combine, it results in the formation of polar covalent bond. For Example: CO_2,NO_2 etc..

Non-polar covalent compound: This compound is formed when there is no difference in electronegativity between the atoms. When atoms of the same element combine, it results in the formation of non-polar covalent bond. For Example: N_2,O_2 etc.

Na-F  : Two different atoms with high electronegativity difference

Ionic compound because sodium is metal and fluorine is non metal and the difference between their electronegativity is very large.The bond present is ionic bond.

PCl  : Two different atoms with low electronegativity difference

Polar covalent  compound because phosphorus and fluorine both are non metal and the difference between their electronegativity is not very large.The bond present is polar covalent bond.

ClCl  : Two same atoms with nil electronegativity difference.

Non Polar covalent compound because both are chlorine atom (non metal) and the difference between their electronegativity is zero.The bond present is non polar covalent bond.
