HBr can be added to an alkene in the presence of peroxides, R-O-O-R. What role do peroxides play in this reaction

Chemistry

Scilla [17]4 years ago

Answer:

The peroxide initiates the free radical reaction

Explanation:

The addition of HBr to alkene in the presence of peroxides occurs via a free radical mechanism.

The organic peroxide acts as the initiator of the free radical reaction. The organic free radical interacts with HBr to produce a bromine free radical which now interacts with the alkene and the propagation steps continue until it is terminated by the coupling of two free radicals.

The peroxide effect leads to anti-Markovnikov addition.

You discover a chemical reaction that produces 1 moles of valuable propane for every 6 moles of carbon supplied.
Greeley [361]

Here we have to calculate the number of moles of valuable propane can be prepared from 1.8 moles of carbon.

From 1.8 moles of carbon 0.3 moles of propane can be prepared by the reaction.

From 6 moles of carbon (C) 1 moles of valuable propane (C₃H₈) can be prepared.

Thus from 1.8 moles of C we can obtain \frac{1}{6}×1.8 = 0.3 moles  of the propane can be prepared.

Thus the amount of propane produced in this reaction is determined.

How many 3d electrons are in an atom of each element? fe?
snow_tiger [21]
The atomic number of iron, Fe, is 26. This means it has 26 electrons.

Now, as we write the configuration, we come up to electronic subshell 3p, which is completely filled. So the configuration up till this point is identical to Argon, so we may write:

[Ar], 3d, 4s

After the electrons in the Ar configuration are accommodated, there are 8 electrons left for the 3d and 4s shells. The 4s subshell, when empty, is at a lower level than the 3d level, so it fills first. Two electrons are placed here. Therefore, 3d has 6 electrons in Fe.
