2.Which of the alcohols listed below would you expect to react most rapidly with PBr3?A)CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OHB)(CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2

Answer:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

Explanation:

For this question, we have the following answer options:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

B) (CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2CH3

C) (CH3CH2)2CHOHCH3

D) (CH3CH2)3COH

E) (CH3CH2)2C(CH3)OH

We have to remember the<u> reaction mechanism</u> of the substitution reaction with PBr_3. <em>The idea is to generate a better leaving group in order to add a "Br" atom.</em>

The PBr_3 attacks the "OH" generation new a bond to P (O-P bonds are very strong), due to this new bond we will have a better leaving group that can remove the oxygen an allow the attack of the Br atom to generating a new C-Br bond. This is made by an <u>Sn2 reaction</u>. Therefore we will have a faster reaction with <u>primary substrates</u>. In this case, the only primary substrate is molecule A. So, <em>"CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH"</em> will react faster.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

A mixture of three noble gases has a total pressure of 1.25 atm. The individual pressures exerted by neon and argon are 0.68
FinnZ [79.3K]

First of all, as you seen the gases are noble which means that will not react with each other and in this case each gas create individual pressure.  

P_{T}= total pressure  

P_{Ne} = pressure of neon  

P_{Ar} = pressure of argon  

P_{He} = pressure of helium {which is required}

P_{T} = P_{Ne} + P_{Ar} + P_{He}    

1.25 = 0.68 + 0.35 +  P_{He}

P_{He}   = 1.25  - [0.68 + 0.35] = 0.22 atm

How many grams of silver chromate, Ag2CrO4, are produced from 57.7
Anastasy [175]
48.3 g AgNO3 / 169.9 g/mol = 0.284 moles AgNO3
0.284 mol AgNO3 X (1 mol Ag2CrO4/2 mol AgNO3) = 0.142 mol Ag2CrO4
0.142 mol Ag2CrO4 X 331.7 g/mol = 47.1 g Ag2CrO4

4. A student started with a 0.032 g sample of copper which he took through the series of reactions described in this experiment.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Y=48.6\%

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can consider the following chemical reaction for the oxidation of copper which only occurs at high temperatures:

2Cu+O_2\rightarrow 2CuO

In such a way, for 0.032 grams of copper, the following grams of copper (II) oxide (black product) are yielded:

m_{CuO}=0.032gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.546gCu} *\frac{2molCuO}{2molCu}*\frac{79.546gCuO}{1molCuO}  =0.078gCuO

Therefore, the percent yield is:

Y=\frac{0.038g}{0.078g}*100\%\\ \\Y=48.6\%

Best regards.
