Answer:

A Fridiel craft catalyst will convert benzene to acetophenone.

Permanganate catalyst can be used to convert toluene to acetophenone.

Explanation:

Benzene can be reduced to acetophenone by the addition of anhydrous aluminium chloride, AlCl₃

The mechanism is as follows:

Benzene + Acetyl choloride → acetophenone

To convert toluene to acetophenone, the following steps are necessary:

  • Oxidation of Toluene to Benzoic acid.

     This is done by refluxing toluene with alkaline potassium permanganate         (KMnO₄+ Na₂CO₃).

  • Benzoic acid is converted to Benzoyl chloride by treating with thioyl chloride and heating at about 80 ⁰C.
  • Benzoyl chloride is treated with methyl lithium to form Acetophenone.

A crow flies 100 meters east in 5 minutes. What is the crow’s velocity?​
torisob [31]

<em>Answer:</em>  20 m/min east

<em>Explanation:</em>  The speed is distance divided by time

distance between start-point and end-point = 100 meters

<em>time to cover the distan</em>ce  =  5 minutes

100 m ÷ 5 min = 20 m/min east

y<u>ou have to add east since velocity is the measure of speed and direction and your answer needs to include the direction</u>

Compound X has a molar mass of 416.48 g mol
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

P₂Cl₁₀

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Molar mass of compound X = 416.48 g/mol

Percentage of phosphorus (P) = 14.87%

Percentage of Chlorine (Cl) = 85.13%

Molecular formula of X =?

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula of compound X. This can be obtained as follow:

P = 14.87%

Cl = 85.13%

Divide by their molar mass

P = 14.87 / 31 = 0.480

Cl = 85.13 / 35.5 = 2.398

Divide by the smallest

P = 0.480 / 0.480 = 1

Cl = 2.398 / 0.480 = 5

Empirical formula of compound X is PCl₅

Finally, we shall determine the molecular formula of compound X. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of compound X = 416.48 g/mol

Empirical formula = PCl₅

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula= [Empirical formula]ₙ

[PCl₅]ₙ = 416.48

[31 + (35.5 × 5)]ₙ = 416.48

[31 + 177.5]n = 416.48

208.5n = 416.48

Divide both side by 208.5

n = 416.48 / 208.5

n = 2

Molecular formula = [PCl₅]ₙ

Molecular formula = [PCl₅]₂

Molecular formula = P₂Cl₁₀

Therefore, the molecular formula of compound X is P₂Cl₁₀

When I2 and FeCl2 are mixed together, iodine (I) cannot replace chlorine (Cl) in the compound because iodine is lower on the per
Nata [24]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation: If this reaction would have occurred, then this reaction would be considered as displacement reaction.

Displacement reactions are the reaction in which more reactive element displaces the less reactive element in a chemical reaction. This is based on the reactivity of elements.

Reactivity of elements is the tendency of the elements to gain or loose electrons. The reactivity decreases down the group in a periodic table.

In the given reaction, Iodine and chlorine are the elements of the same group in the periodic table and iodine lies below chlorine in the group. So, the reactivity of iodine is less than the reactivity of chlorine.

Hence, in the given reaction, iodine will not replace chlorine because it lies below in the periodic table.

FeCl_2+I_2\rightarrow \text{No reaction}
