Answer:
The main competing reaction when a primary alkyl halide is treated with alcoholic potassium hydroxide is SN2 substitution.
Explanation:
The relative percentage of products of the reaction between an alkyl halide and alcoholic potassium hydroxide generally depends on the structure of the primary alkylhalide. The attacking nucleophile/base in this reaction is the alkoxide ion. Substitution by SN2 mechanism is a major competing reaction in the elimination reaction intended.
A more branched alkyl halide will yield an alkene product due to steric hindrance, similarly, a good nucleophile such as the alkoxide ion may favour SN2 substitution over the intended elimination (E2) reaction.
Both SN2 and E2 are concerted reaction mechanisms. They do not depend on the formation of a carbocation intermediate. Primary alkyl halides generally experience less steric hindrance in the transition state and do not form stable carbocations hence they cannot undergo E1 or SN1 reactions.
SN2 substitution cannot occur in a tertiary alkyl halides because the stability of tertiary carbocations favours the formation of a carbocation intermediate. The formation of this carbocation intermediate will lead to an SN1 or E1 mechanism. SN2 reactions is never observed for a tertiary alkyl halide due to steric crowding of the transition state. Also, with strong bases such as the alkoxide ion, elimination becomes the main reaction of tertiary alkyl halides.
<span>All of these. All the gases that are mentioned in each set identify with the law of multiple proportions since the all the compounds have oxygen ions in them. Law of multiple proportions is defined as formation of compound with oxide ions after the reaction of an element with oxygen.</span>
<u>5.6400 </u>is the mass of silver bromide that precipitates when 2.96 g of iron(iii) bromide is combined with excess silver nitrate.

Difference between silver bromide and iron(iii) bromide</h3>
- Silver bromide (AgBr) is a soft, pale-yellow, water-insoluble salt well known (along with other silver halides) for its unusual sensitivity to light. This property has allowed silver halides to become the basis of modern photographic materials. AgBr is widely used in photographic films and is believed by some to have been used for making the Shroud of Turin. The salt can be found naturally as the mineral bromargyrite.
- Iron(III) bromide is the chemical compound with the formula FeBr3. Also known as ferric bromide, this red-brown odourless compound is used as a Lewis acid catalyst in the halogenation of aromatic compounds. It dissolves in water to give acidic solutions.

We can use this equation for boiling point elevation:
ΔT(b) = i K(b) M
when Δ T(b) is the increase of boiling point of the solution.
and i is ( vant Hoff factor, the number of particles or ions per mole-clue.
and K(b) is boiling point increase constant for the solution ( and for water it is equal 0.52 C° Kg/mol)
We can assume i (vant Hoff factor ) = 1 as the sucrose is nonelectrolyte (not readily ionize).
So for water: Tb° = 100 c° and Kb = 0.52 c° Kg / mol
By substitute at:
ΔTb = i Kb M
∴ = 1 * 0.52 * 3.60 = 1.8432 C°
and when Tb = Tb° + ΔTb
∴ Tb = 100 + 1.8432 = 101.8432 C°
