Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is an element.
The first chemical element is hydrogen (atomic number is 1) and the last is oganesson (atomic number is 118).
Elements are scheduled in Periodic table, ordered by their atomic number.
Other example, krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36.
Krypton has 36 electron and 36. It is noble gas (group 18).
Noble gases are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.
