Answer:
an increase in 1-butene was observed when t-butoxide was used
Explanation:
When a base reacts with an alkyl halide, an elimination product is formed. This reaction is an E2 reaction.
Here we are to compare the reaction of two different bases with one substrate; 2-bromobutane. Both reactions occur by the E2 mechanism but follow different transition states due to the size of the base.
The Saytzeff product, 2-butene, is obtained when the methoxide is used while the non Saytzeff product, 1-butene, is obtained when t-butoxide is used.
The Saytzeff rule is reliable in predicting the major products of simple elimination reactions of alkyl halides given the fact that a small/strong bases is used for the elimination reaction. Therefore hydroxide, methoxide and ethoxide bases give similar results for the same alkyl halide substrate. Bulky bases such as tert-butoxide tend to yield a higher percentage of the non Saytzeff product and this is usually attributed to steric hindrance.

Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of CuCl₂ = 2.50g
Mass of Al = 0.50g
Unknown:
Number of moles of CuCl₂ and Al = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we must understand that the number of moles is a fundamental property used in stoichiometry calculations.
Number of moles = 
Molar mass of CuCl₂ = 63.6 + 2(35.5) = 134.5g/mole
Molar mass of Al = 26.98g/mole
Number of moles of CuCl₂ = 
= 0.019moles
Number of moles of Al = 
= 0.019moles
Answer:
Explanation:
Carboxylic acids is a homologous series in which the compounds contain a functional group called the carboxyl group (-COOH). The general molecular formula for carboxylic acids is CnH2n+1COOH. Carboxylic acids contain at least one carboxyl group.
Or in Polish…
Kwasy karboksylowe to homologiczna seria, w której związki zawierają grupę funkcyjną zwaną grupą karboksylową (-COOH). Ogólny wzór cząsteczkowy dla kwasów karboksylowych to CnH2n + 1COOH. Kwasy karboksylowe zawierają co najmniej jedną grupę karboksylową.
