Answer:

See below.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethers react with HI at high temperature to produce an alky halide and an alcohol.

R-OR' + HI ⟶ R-I + H-OR'

<em>Benzylic ethers</em> react by an Sₙ1 mechanism by forming the stable benzyl cation.

  1. PhCH₂-OR + HI ⟶ PhCH₂-O⁺(H)R + I⁻    Protonation of the ether
  2. PhCH₂-O⁺(H)R  ⟶ PhCH₂⁺ + HOR          Sₙ1 ionization of oxonium ion
  3. PhCH₂⁺ + I⁻       ⟶ PhCH₂-I                     Nucleophilic attack by I⁻  

If there is excess HI, the alcohol formed in Step 2 is also converted to an alkyl iodide:

ROH +HI ⟶ R-I + H-OH

Thus, benzyl ethyl ether reacts to form benzyl iodide (a) and ethanol (b).

The ethanol reacts with excess HI in an Sₙ2 reaction to form ethyl iodide (c).

Vlad [161]

A more strong base is added until the equivalence point is reached. The ph of this solution at the equivalence point if the total volume is 57. 0 mill is 9.8

The potential of Hydrogen is what pH is formally known as. The negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions is known as pH. Thus, the definition of pH as the amount of hydrogen is provided. The hydrogen ion concentration in a solution is described by the pH scale, which also serves as a gauge for the solution's acidity or basicity.

The pH scale determines how acidic or basic water is. The range is 0 to 14, with 7 representing neutrality. Acidity is indicated by pH values below 7, whereas baseness is shown by pH values above 7. In reality, pH is a measurement of the proportion of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in water.

Answer:

Answer below.

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy through light or heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction. Expressed in a chemical equation: reactants → products + energy.

What must be true about two objects if heat is flowing between them?
Degger [83]

The objects may exchange heat between each other if they are in contact with each other.

The two objects will allow flow of heat between them if they have a difference in temperature from each other.

The heat will flow from higher temperature object to lower temperature object. The will reach a final temperature (common to each other) and then there will be no heat transfer between each other.

The ph of a 0.55 m aqueous solution of hypobromous acid, hbro, at 25.0 °c is 4.48. what is the value of ka for hbro?
Alex Ar [27]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be a). 2.0 × 10-9

____________________________________________________

Work:

In your question the "ph" of a 0.55 m aqueous solution of hypobromous acid temperature is at 25 degrees C, and it's "ph" is 4.48.

You would use the ph (4.48) to find the ka for "hbro"

[H+]

=

10^-4.48

=

3.31 x 10^-5 M

=

[BrO-]

or: [H+] = 10^-4.48 = 3.31 x 10^-5 M = [BrO-]

Then you would find ka:

(3.31 x 10^-5)^2/0.55 =2 x 10^-9
