Be sure to answer all parts. Rubidium and bromine atoms are depicted at right. Answer the following questions. (a) What is the c
harge on the rubidium ion? What is the charge on the bromide ion? (b) To which noble gas is the rubidium ion related? To which noble gas is the bromide ion related? h5sil8102 (c) Which pair below best represents the relative ionic sizes?
1 answer:
The complete question is found on the image attached.
Answer:
a) Rb= +1, Br= -1
b)Bromide and rubidium ions are related to krypton
c) C
Explanation:
Rubidium is found in group 1 with a charge of +1. Bromine is found in group 17 with a charge of -1. Both species have the same configuration as krypton. The ionic sizes of the ions are a very similar to each other Rb+ is 166 while Be is 167.
This RbBr is an ionic compound.

Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
The first two pictures show the reagents used in these reactions a) and b). As it was stated, An E2 reaction proceeds with an antiperiplanar stereochemistry, so in the case of reaction a) it fill form a product with the groups in opposite directions. In other words, a Trans product.
In the case of reaction b) we have the same reaction, with the difference that we have changed the CH3 and phenyl group of positions. This will cause that the reaction will proceed the same but the stereochemistry of the final product will be changed too. In this case, and according to the picture 3 attached, we can see that the product formed is a cis product. So we can conclude that the relation of product a) and b) is that they are isomers, the trans and cis isomers respectively. See picture below for mechanism and products
