Here we have to explain and predict the product of the reaction between hept-3-yne and bromine (Br₂)

The reaction between hept-3-yne and bromine produces trans-3,4-dibromo-3-heptene.

The reaction between the unsaturated hydrocarbon with halogen remove the unsaturation in the molecule and produces di halo compound. The reaction proceed through the formation of bromonium ion.

In this reaction as the unsaturation present in the middle of the alkyl chain i.e. hept-3-yne. The reaction will stop after the formation of di-halo compound with one double bond as shown in the figure.

The product will be exclusively trans product as the bromine is a bulky group and the formation of bromonium ion (intermediate) will be one side of the unsaturated compound.

Which of the following best defines base isolation?(1 point)

jekas [21]

Base isolation is a method of earthquake resistant engineering where a structure is separated from the ground by isolation units that reduces the impact of seismic vibration energy. So, the last answer choice would be the best definition.

Which statement applies to electronegativity?

densk [106]

Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.

This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.

This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is Option A.

A material has a volume of 63.0 cm3 and a mass of 28 grams. What is the density of the material in g/cm3 to the correct number

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).

Explanation:

Knowing that:

d = m/V,

where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).

m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).

V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).

∴ d = m/V = (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = 0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).
