Explanation:
Each element in the periodic table has different but fixed number of the protons in nucleus of it's atom, which is known as the atomic number.
Transmutation of one chemical element into the another involves the changing of the atomic number. Such nuclear reaction requires millions of the times more energy as compared to normal chemical reactions. Thus, the dream of the alchemist of transmuting the lead into the gold was never achievable chemically .
Conversion of lead to gold in today's world:
This conversion is indeed possible. The requirements are a particle accelerator, tremendous supply of the energy. Nuclear scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory located in California, more than 30 years ago, succeeded in producing very minute amounts of the gold from the bismuth. Bismuth is a metallic element which is adjacent to the lead on periodic table. Same process would work for the lead but isolating gold at end of reaction would prove much more difficult because lead is available in many isotopes. The homogeneous nature of the element means that it is easier to separate the gold from the bismuth as compared to separate the gold from the lead which has four isotopic identities which all are stable.
Answer:
See explanation.
Explanation:
Since potassium tert-butoxide is a strong bulky base, we expect that an elimination reaction predominates.
This reaction is expected to occur by E2 mechanism. The cis isomer of 1-bromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane is known to react faster by E2 mechanism because it fulfills the anticoplanar arrangement required for for E2 mechanism, where the leaving group and adjacent proton must be anti to each other and in the same plane. The trans isomer can not fulfill this requirement.
B. The surface of a silver cup turns black when it is exposed to air.
Metals are placed in one spot,the nonmetals are placed in another spot,And lastly the metalloids are seperated
Yes cause elements never undergo a chemical interaction and stay
