When methylcyclobutane is treated with chlorine gas and heated, the total number of monochlorinated products, including stereois
omers, is
1 answer:
Answer:
5
Explanation:
The image attached shows the different monochlorination products obtained when chlorine gas is heated with methylcyclobutane.
We must keep in mind that the reaction occurs by free radical mechanism as shown in the image attached. The proportion in which the products are formed depends on the stability of the free radical intermediate leading to that particular product.

Answer: The empirical formula of the compound is
Explanation:
Empirical formula is defined formula which is simplest integer ratio of number of atoms of different elements present in the compound.
Percentage of iron in a compound = 36.76 %
Percentage of sulfur in a compound = 21.11 %
Percentage of oxygen in a compound = 42.13 %
Consider in 100 g of the compound:
Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 36.76 g
Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 21.11 g
Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 42.13 g
Now calculate the number of moles each element:
Moles of iron=
Moles of sulfur=
Moles of oxygen=
Divide the moles of each element by the smallest number of moles to calculated the ratio of the elements to each other
For Iron element =
For sulfur element =
For oxygen element =
So, the empirical formula of the compound is
