Neopentyl alcohol, (ch3)3cch2oh, cannot be dehydrated to an alkene without rearrangement. what is the chief product of dehydrati

Dehydration is removal of water.

In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.

In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].

The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.

The process or mechanism can be understood as:


so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene

In a first-order decomposition reaction, 50.0% of a compound decomposes in 10.5 min.
mihalych1998 [28]

In this reaction 50% of the compound decompose in 10.5 min thus, it is half life of the reaction and denoted by symbol t_{1/2}.

(a) For first order reaction, rate constant and half life time are related to each other as follows:

k=\frac{0.6932}{t_{1/2}}=\frac{0.6932}{10.5 min}=0.066 min^{-1}

Thus, rate constant of the reaction is 0.066 min^{-1}.

(b) Rate equation for first order reaction is as follows:

k=\frac{2.303}{t_{1/2}}log\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}

now, 75% of the compound is decomposed, if initial concentration [A_{0} ] is 100 then concentration at time t [A_{t} ] will be 100-75=25.

Putting the values,

0.066 min^{-1}=\frac{2.303}{t}log\frac{100}{25}=\frac{2.303}{t}(0.6020)

On rearranging,

t=\frac{2.303\times 0.6020}{0.066 min^{-1}}=21 min

Thus, time required for 75% decomposition is 21 min.

What happens when soluble fiber is mixed with water?
storchak [24]

Answer:

Soluble fiber attracts water and turns to gel during digestion. This slows digestion. Soluble fiber is found in oat bran, barley, nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, peas, and some fruits and vegetables. It is also found in psyllium, a common fiber supplement.:

El fluoruro de hidrógeno HF que se utiliza en
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

25.6g de HF son producidos

Explanation:

<em>...¿Cuánto HF es producido?</em>

Para resolver este problema debemos convertir la masa de cada reactivo a moles usando su masa molar. Como la reacción es 1:1, el reactivo con menor número de moles es el reactivo limitante. Con las moles del reactivo limitante podemos obtener las moles de HF y su masa así:

<em>Moles CaF2:</em>

Masa molar:

1Ca = 40g/mol

2F = 19*2 = 38g/mol

40+38 = 78g/mol

50g CaF2 * (1mol/78g) = 0.641 moles CaF2

<em>Moles H2SO4:</em>

Masa molar:

2H = 2g/mol

1S = 32g/mol

4O = 64g/mol

98g/mol

100g H2SO4 * (1mol / 98g) = 1.02 moles H2SO4

Como las moles de CaF2 < Moles H2SO4: CaF2 es reactivo limitante.

<em>Moles HF usando la reacción:</em>

0.641 moles CaF2 * (2mol HF / 1mol CaF2) = 1.282 moles HF

<em>Masa HF:</em>

Masa molar:

1g/mol + 19g/mol = 20g/mol

1.282 moles HF * (20g/mol) =

<h3>25.6g de HF son producidos</h3>
