Which one of the following reactions would produce t-butyl methyl ether in high yield?

Chemistry
1 answer:
swat323 years ago
7 0

Answer:

D) sodium t-butoxide + bromomethane

Explanation:

The alkoxide ion is a strong nucleophile, that unlike alcohols, will react with primary alkyl halides to form ether. This general reaction is known as <em>the Williamson synthesis</em>, and is a SN₂ displacement. The alkyl halide must be primary so the back side attack is not hindered, and the alkoxide ion must be formed with the most hindered group.

The mechanism can be seen in the attachment.

Which law states that the volume and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of gas are directly proportional under constant pr
Delvig [45]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: Charle's Law.

<h2>Why?</h2>

The law that states that the volume and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of gas (ideal gas) are proportional under constant pressure is the Charle's Law, also known as the law of volumes.

The law describes how a gas kept under constant pressure tends to expand when the temperature increases and it's described by the following equation:

\frac{V}{T}=k

Where,

V=Volume\\T=Temperature\\k=constant

Also, to describe the relationship between two differents volumes at different temperatures, we have:

\frac{V_{i}}{T_{i}}=\frac{V_{f}}{T_{f}}

Where,

V_{i}=InitialVolume\\T_{i}=InitialTemperature\\V_{f}=FinalVolume\\T_{f}=FinalTemperature

Have a nice day!

n unknown metal is either aluminum, iron or lead. If 150. g of this metal at 150.0 °C was placed in a calorimeter that contains
Nitella [24]

Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 0.449J/g^oC).

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of unknown metal = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of unknown metal = 150 g

m_2 = mass of water = 200 g

T_f = final temperature of water = 34.3^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of unknown metal = 150.0^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 25.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

150g\times c_1\times (34.3-150.0)^oC=-200g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (34.3-25.0)^oC

c_1=0.449J/g^oC

Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).

Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 0.449J/g^oC).

In an atom, the number of neutrons determines most specifically the ________.
lord [1]

In an atom, the number of neutrons determines most specifically the isotopes of an element.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2><h3>An atom  </h3>
  • An atom is defined as the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
  • Atoms are made of energy shells and the inner nucleus.
  • It is also made up of subatomic particles, protons and neutrons.
<h3>Neutrons  </h3>
  • They are sub-atomic particles in an atom that are found in the nucleus of an atom. They have a zero charge or no charge.
  • Neutrons are slightly heavier than protons.
  • The number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus of an atom results to the atomic mass number of an atom. Like protons they only take part in nuclear reactions.
<h3>Protons</h3>
  • Protons are subatomic particles that are found in the nucleus of an atom. They are positively charged. with a charge of +1.
  • The number of protons differ from one element to another and thus used as the atomic number of an individual element.
  • The nucleus of an atom is positively charged due to the positive charge of the protons.  
  • Additionally, protons do not take part in chemical reactions but in nuclear reactions.
<h3>Electrons  </h3>
  • They are found orbiting the nucleus on energy shells based on Clouds’ theory. Electrons are negatively charged each with a charge of -1.
  • The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atom are equal. Additionally they have the least mass of the three sub-atomic particles.
  • Electrons are the only sub-atomic particles that take part in chemical reactions.
<h3>Isotopes </h3>
  • Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same mass number but different atomic number.
<h3>Mass number;</h3>
  • Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom of an element.

Keywords: Atom, sub-atomic particles, electrons, protons, neutrons, isotopes
