Answer : Option C) The Octet Rule
Explanation : Atoms have a tendency to complete their outer energy level. This is known as Octet Rule.
The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb which reflects the observation, that atoms of main-group elements tends to combine in such a way that each atom gets eight electrons in its valence shell, which gives it the same electron configuration as that of a noble gas.
In short, the tendency of an atom to fill its valence shell and attain a stable state it acquires or donates the electron is called as octet rule.
Answer:
Standardisation is used to determine the concentration of a volumetric solution in order to achieve accurate and reliable titration results
A hypothesis is a prediction of what you believe to be true.
Answer:
SN2
Explanation:
The first step of ether cleavage is the protonation of the ether since ROH is a better leaving group than RO-.
The second step of the reaction may proceed by either SN1 or SN2 mechanism depending on the structure of the ether. Methyl and primary ethers react with HI by SN2 mechanism while tertiary ethers react with HI by SN1 mechanism. Secondary ethers react with HI by a mixture of both mechanisms.
Dipentyl ether is a primary ether hence when treated with HI, the reaction with HI proceeds by SN2 mechanism as explained above.
Answer:
Combustion
Explanation:
The reaction type is a combustion reaction;
Ethanol + oxygen gas → carbon dioxide + water
Now;
Ethanol is the fuel and oxygen gas rapidly combines with it to form carbon dioxide and water.
- This process releases heat energy from chemical bonds.
- Most hydrocarbons burn in excess air or oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.
