What are the trends for atomic size and ionization? Explain why for each trend. Tell me the direction- up or down a group and ac
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Atomic size increases down the group due to the addition of more shells.

As more shells are added and repulsion of inner electrons become more significant, atomic size increases down the group. However, across the period, atomic size decreases due to increase in effective nuclear charge without any increase in the number of shells. This causes increased attraction between the nucleus and the outermost shell thereby decreasing the size of the atom.

Ionization energy decreases down the group because the outermost electron is more shielded by inner electrons making it easier for this outermost electron to be lost. Across the period, ionization energy increases due to increase in effective nuclear charge which makes it more difficult to remove the outermost electron due to increased nuclear attraction.

Suppose you were told that the above reaction was a substitution reaction but you were not told the mechanism. Evaluate the foll
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The alkyl halide is secondary

The nucleophile is a poor nucleophile

The solvent is a protic solvent

The product is racemic

Explanation:

The reaction is shown in the image attached.

Alkyl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution by two mechanisms; SN1 and SN2. The particular mechanism that applies depends on;

I) structure of the alkyl halide

ii) nature of the nucleophile

iii) nature of the solvent

Looking at the reaction under review, we can see from the structure that the alkyl halide is a secondary alkyl halide. A secondary alkyl halide may undergo substitution via SN1 or SN2 mechanism depending on the conditions of the reaction.

If the nucleophile is poor, and the solvent is protic, SN1 mechanism is favoured over SN2 mechanism. Since CH3CH2OH is a poor nucleophile and ethanol is a protic solvent, we expect the reaction to proceed via SN1 mechanism leading to the formation of a racemic product.

The organic product is also shown in the second image attached.
