Answer:
(D) (CH3CH2)2NH
Explanation:
In order to decide which base is strongest we need to calculate its PKb
PKb = -log [Kb]
A large Kb value and small PKb value gives the strongest base
Compound Kb PKb
(A) C6H5NH2 - 4 x 10^-10 9.349
(B) NH3 1.76x 10^-5 4.754
(C) CH3NH2 4.4x 10^-4 3.357
(D) (CH3CH2)2NH 8.6x 10^-4 3.066
(E) C5H5N 1.7x10^-9 8.77
Clearly (CH3CH2)2NH is the strongest base.
We need to see your problem/question you’re talking about to answer it
That would be evaporation.
Hope this helped!! xx
Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
