As noted in Assignment 1.4.1., alkylation of benzene with 1-chlorobutane in the presence of AlCl3 gives both butylbenzene and (1

-methylpropyl)benzene as products. Propose a route to butylbenzene from benzene that does not also give the (1-methylpropyl)benzene side-product.

Answer:

Use the Bromotriflouride catalyst, BF₃

Explanation:

The BF₃ is most likely to yield less desired side products. The effect lies in the reaction mechanism.

BF₃ is a Lewis acid. Its role is to promote the ionization of the HF. This is achieved through the electrophilic mechanism. The reaction mechanism is as follows:

2 - methylpropene + H-F-BF₃ → H-F + H₃C + benzene

butylbenzene + F-BF₃ → tert-butylbenzene + H-F + BF₃ (regenerated catalyst)

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

In order to prepare 10 mL, 5 μM; <em> 2 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted with water up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 10 μM; <em>4 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 15 μM; <em>6 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 20 μM; <em>8 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

Explanation:

Using the dilution equation:

no of moles before dilution = no of moles after dilution.

Molarity x volume (initial)= Molarity x volume (final).

In order to prepare 10 mL, 5 μM from 25 μM solution,

Final molarity = 5 μM, final volume = 10 mL, initial molarity = 25 μM, initial volume = ?

25 x initial volume = 5 x 10

Initial volume = 50/25

                       = 2 mL

<em>2 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

<em />

In order to prepare 10 mL, 10 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 10 x 10

Initial volume = 100/25 = 4 mL

<em>4 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 15 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 15 x 10

initial volume = 150/25 = 6 mL

<em>6 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 20 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 20 x 10

initial volume = 200/25 = 8 mL

<em>8 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

Which of the following groups have seven valence electrons and are very reactive?
valina [46]

Answer:

Column 17 halogens

Explanation:

To answer the question we need to know the following;

What are valence electrons?

  • Valence electrons are outermost electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom of any element.

What are halogens?

  • Halogens are group 7 elements that have seven valence electrons. They include, chlorine, fluorine, iodine, etc

What is the reactivity of halogens?

  • Halogens are the most reactive non-metals in the periodic table. They react by gaining one electron to attain a stable configuration.

Why does water evaperate
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Explanation:

water evaporates because when h2o (water) particles heat up, they gain energy causing them to start to vibrate. this moves the oarticles further and further away from eachother and making the substance less dense, and turning it into a gas. meaning it has evaporated
