It is given that the charge on potassium is +1 i.e. Potassium is a cation, K⁺
The charge on selenium is given as -2, i.e. selenium is an anion, Se²⁻
The two ions are shown to combine to form a molecule: KXSeY where X and Y correspond to the proportions in which the two atoms combine.
Since the molecule is neutral, the positive and negative charges need to be balanced. This is possible only if 2 units of K⁺ combines with 1 unit of Se²⁻.
Therefore, the formula would be K₂Se
X = 2 and Y = 1
Answer:
C4H6 + 2HBr = C4H8Br2
Explanation:
Alkynes are organic molecules made of the functional group carbon-carbon triple bonds and are written in the empirical formula of CnH2n−2. They are unsaturated hydrocarbons.
Furthermore, Halogenation reaction of any alkyne such as but-2-yne with any of the hydro halogenated compounds such as HBr, HCl, HF or HI will give an alkane that will have the same number of carbon atoms in the starting material and in the final product.
Halogenation reaction is a reaction that occurs when one or more halogens are added to a substance. Halogens is the seventh column in the periodic table and it include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
