Answer:

a. Anti addition to give the trans product.

Explanation:

First the alkene and Br₂ react and form an intermediate bromonium ion, which is highly reactive. This bromonium ion then reacts with water, which attacks from the <u>opposite site of the Br atom</u> (this is an anti addition). Thus the in the final product <u>the hydroxide ion and the bromine are in opposite sides</u> (this is the trans product).

[Kr] 5s1 4d4 niobium

[Xe] 6s1 4f14 5d10 gold

[Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p4 tellurium

Explanation:

Selenium and tellurium will have the same properties because they both belong to group 16 in the periodic table.

Silver and gold will have the same properties because they both belong the group 11 in the periodic table.

Elements having the same outermost shell configuration show similar properties since chemical reactions occur by loss or gain of electrons. This loss or gain is determined by the number of electrons occupying the outermost shell. Elements in the same group have the same outermost shell electron configuration and similar properties.

What would you multiply "grams of barium" by to get the units "moles of barium" ?
solmaris [256]
Moles = weight in grams / molecular weight.

So I would divide the "grams of barium" by its molecular weight (which is 137.3) to get "moles of barium". :)

Caleb is an inventor who has designed a new kind of fishing net. He is looking for a strong, flexible material that can be used
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

c. Polystyrene

Explanation:

Caleb wants a synthetic material that is not soluble in water, so it must be a nonpolar material because water is polar.

Cellulose is a nonpolar molecular, but is a natural product;

Nylon is a synthetic compound, but is polar, so it' soluble in water;

Vulcanized rubber is polar and the rubber is a natural compound.

The only compound that he can use is polystyrene, which is insoluble in water and is a synthetic material.
