Answer:

Reagent A: PBr₃

Reagent B: Mg in Et₂O.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, your facing a problem in which a carboxylic acid is produced starting by an alcohol. More specifically, cyclopentanol must react with phosphorous tribromide in order to yield bromocyclopentane which is more likely to produce a carboxylic acid, therefore, reagent A is PBr₃.

On the other hand, by means of the production of the specified product, bromocyclopentane must react with carbon dioxide and magnesium in diethyl ether in acidic media to promote the production of the cyclopentanoic acid via the grignard reaction (substitution of the bromine by the carboxyle group), therefore, reagent B is Mg in Et₂O.

Best regards.

Why does hydrochloric acid have a higher boiling point than diatomic fluorine? The stabilizing effect of dipole interactions in

il63 [147K]

The correct answer would be the fourth option. Hydrochloric acid has a higher boiling point than fluorine molecule because the former is a polar molecule which means that it has stronger bonds than fluorine which is a non-polar molecule. Stronger bonds require more energy to break these bonds.

Types of atoms. The basic unit of matter. Pure substance is what?

ivanzaharov [21]

Solids, liquids, gases, and plasma are all matter. When all atoms that make up a substance are the same, then that substance is an element. Elements made of only one kind of atom. Because of this, elements are called "pure" substances.

hope this helps :)

How to solve this: a small dog has consumed a dangerous amount of apap. the vet has ordered: rx acetylcysteine 150mg/kg/stat. yo

Fantom [35]

Given:
Stock dose/concentration of 20% Acetylcysteine (200 mg/mL)
150 mg/kg dose of Acetylcysteine
Weight of the dog is 13.2 lb

First we must convert 13.2 lb to kg:
13.2 lb/(2.2kg/lb) = 6 kg

Then we must calculate the dose:
(150 mg/kg)(6kg) = 900 mg

Lastly, we must calculate the dose in liquid form to be administered:
(900 mg)/(200 mg/mL) = 4.5 mL

Therefore, 4.5 mL of 20% Acetylcysteine should be given.

The compound magnesium iodide is a strong electrolyte write the reaction when solid magnesium iodide is put into water

mestny [16]

The reaction for magnesium iodide when put into water is as below

MgI2(s) → Mg^2+(aq) + 2I^-(aq)

when magnesium iodide but into water it dissociate/ ionize completely into Mg^2+ and 2l^- ions. Magnesium iodide dissociate/ionize completely because magnesium iodide is a strong electrolyte which dissociate/ ionize completely into their ions when it is put into water .
