The mechanism will include

a) Slow step: rate determining step

In this step the leaving group (chloride ion) will leave the substrate and will form carbocation

b) Fast step:

The cation will be attacked by nucleophile and will give the substituted product

the mechanism is shown as :

Final product of the solvolysis of tert-butyl bromide in methanol is 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane.

Further Explanation:

Nucleophilic substitution reaction:

Nucleophilic substitution reaction is the chemical reaction where electron rich nucleophile replaces the leaving group from the substrate. Nucleophilic reactions are widely used in the conversion of one functional group to another.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions are two types:

1. The nucleophilic substitution reaction {{\text{S}}_{\text{N}}}1 is a two-step substitution reaction. In the first step, the removal of the leaving group takes place in order to form the carbocation intermediate. The second step involves the formation of the product by the attack of the incoming nucleophile on the carbocation intermediate.

2. Nucleophilic substitution reaction {{\text{S}}_{\text{N}}}2 is a single step substitution reaction in which electron-rich species substitute leaving group. The attack takes place from the backside of the electrophilic center thus an inversion of the configuration takes place.

The mechanism of solvolysis of tert-butyl bromide in methanol is {{\text{S}}_{\text{N}}}1  type (refer to the image attached), therefore

Step 1: Formation of carbocation intermediate from tert-butyl bromide after leaving of bromide ion.

Step 2: Then methanol act as the nucleophile and attack on the carbocation intermediate.

Step 3: The last step is deprotonation to produce the final product is 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane.

What is the molarity of 225 grams of Cu(NO2)2 in a total volume of 2.59 L?
Kay [80]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.56\frac{moles}{L}

Explanation:

In a mixture, the chemical present in the greatest amount is called a solvent, while the other components are called solutes. Then, the molarity or molar concentration is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

In other words, molarity is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The Molarity of a solution is determined by:

Molarity (M)=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}

Molarity is expressed in units (\frac{moles}{liter}).

Then you must know the number of moles of Cu(NO₂)₂. For that it is necessary to know the molar mass. Being:

  • Cu: 63.54 g/mol
  • N: 14 g/mol
  • O: 16 g/mol

the molar mass of Cu(NO₂)₂ is:

Cu(NO₂)₂= 63.54 g/mol + 2*(14 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol)= 155.54 g/mol

Now the following rule of three applies: if 155.54 g are in 1 mole of the compound, 225 g in how many moles are they?

moles=\frac{225 g*1 mole}{155.54 g}

moles= 1.45

So you know:

  • number of moles of solute= 1.45 moles
  • volume=2.59 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

Molarity=\frac{1.45 moles}{2.59 L}

Molarity= 0.56\frac{moles}{L}

<u><em>The molarity is 0.56</em></u>\frac{moles}{L}<u><em></em></u>
