Complete the mechanism for the reaction of 2-butanol in sulfuric acid at 140 °C by adding any missing atoms, bonds, charges, non
bonding electrons, and curved arrows. Note the use of a generic alcohol to represent another 2-butanol introduced in panel three.
1 answer:
Answer:
2-Butene
Explanation:
The first step is the <u>ionization</u> of the acid to produce the hydronium ion. Then the OH will attack this ion to produce a <u>charged species</u> that can be stabilized when <u>H2O is produced</u>.
Then an <u>elimination</u> takes place to produce the more <u>substituted alkene</u> 2-butene and the <u>hydronium ion</u> is gain produced.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
From above:
To predict the effect of the addition of Br₂(g);
The addition of Br₂(g) will favor the equilibrium to shift to the left i.e. formation of NOBr
The removal of some NOBr will cause the equilibrium position to shift to the left side. This is because concentration on the left side is decreased and the concentration on the right side will be increased. Thus, the equilibrium will shift towards where the concentration is reduced which is the left side.
Answer : The mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.
Explanation :
Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.
This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.
The balanced chemical reaction will be,
According to the law of conservation of mass,
Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side
Total mass of = Total mass of
As we are given :
The mass of = 25.3 grams
The mass of = 23.4 grams
So,
Therefore, the mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.
