a metal melts at 450°c.is this property of the metal classified as chemical or physical ?explain your choice

Chemical properties describe how things undergo chemical reactions, while physical properties describe how things behave when they're not undergoing reactions.

In the case of melting a metal, the melted metal continues to be the same material - just in a liquid rather than a solid form. As a result, melting (and all phase changes, for that matter) is a physical change and the ability of the metal to melt at 450 degrees is a physical property.

Answer:

The lanthanides and the actinides at the bottom of the table are sometimes known as the inner transition metals because they have atomic numbers that fall between the first and second elements in the last two rows of the transition metals

P-fluoroanisole reacts with sulfur trioxide and sulfuric acid. Draw the major product of this substitution reaction; if applicab

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: (Structure attached).

Explanation:

This type of reaction is an aromatic electrophilic substitution. The overall reaction is the replacement of a proton (H +) with an electrophile (E +) in the aromatic ring.

The aromatic ring in p-fluoroanisole has two sustituents, an halogen and a methoxy group, which are ortho-para directing substituents.

Aryl sulfonic acids are easily synthesized by an electrophilic substitution reaction aromatic using sulfur trioxide as an electrophile (very reactive).

The reaction occurs in three steps:

The attack on the electrophile forms the sigma complex.
The loss of a proton regenerates an aromatic ring.
The sulfonate group can be protonated in the presence of a strong acid (H₂SO₄).

Normally, a mixture of ortho-para substituted products would be obtained. However, since both para positions are occupied, only the ortho substituted product is obtained here.
