Explanation:

Fission refers to splitting into parts.

When there is splitting of a heavy nucleus that leads to formation of two or more small nucleus along with release of energy is known as a nuclear fission reaction.

For example, ^{235}_{92}U + ^{1}_{0}n \rightarrow ^{89}_{36}Kr + ^{144}_{56}Ba + 3^{1}_{0}n + 210 MeV

The Lucas test has _______ results based on the type of alcohol present because the reaction involves a _________, which is ____
Olin [163]

Answer:

1) positive

2) carbocation

3) most stable

4) faster

Explanation:

A common test for the presence of alcohols can be achieved using the Lucas reagent. Lucas reagent is a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride.

The reaction of Lucas reagent reacts with alcohols leading to the formation of an alkyl chloride. Since the reaction proceeds via a carbocation mechanism, tertiary alcohols give an immediate reaction. Once a tertiary alcohol is mixed with Lucas reagent, the solution turns cloudy almost immediately indicating an instant positive reaction.

Secondary alcohols may turn cloudy within five minutes of mixing the solutions. Primary alcohols do not significantly react with Lucas reagent obviously because they do not form stable carbocations.

Therefore we can use the Lucas reagent to distinguish between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.

Reika [66]

Answer:

2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane

Explanation:

Structural characteristics of the compound is as follows:

  • Has five methyl group
  • Has one quaternary carbon
  • No. double bond
  • Gives four monochloro substitution products

Compound must have straight chain of 5 carbons.

Three methyl substituents are attached to 2 and 4 carbons.

Therefore, IUPAC name of the compound will be 2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane.
