Primary alkyl halides tend to undergo the SN2 reaction mechanism in nucleophilic substitution since there is less steric hindrance for nucleophilic attack and the carbocations that they form are not as stable as those formed from tertiary alkyl halides.
1-bromopentane > 1-bromo 2-methylbutane > <span>1-bromo-3-methylbutane</span>> 2-bromo 2-methylbutane
Answer: 8.7 grams
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 
of particles.
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
As oxygen is in excess, Aluminium is the limiting reagent and limits the formation of products.
According to stoichiometry:
4 moles of aluminium give = 2 moles of 
Thus 0.17 moles of aluminium give=
Mass of 
Thus the mass of is 8.7 grams
Answer:
The melting and boiling points of molecular compounds are generally quite low compared to those of ionic compounds. This is because the energy required to disrupt the intermolecular forces between molecules is far less than the energy required to break the ionic bonds in a crystalline ionic compound
Answer:
Cs and I
Explanation:
Salts are formed when an ionic bond is formed between two elements in the compound. Let us recall that the kind of bond formed between any two elements depends on the magnitude of electronegativity difference between the two elements.
Among the options listed, the highest degree of electronegativity difference occurs for the bond between Cs and I. This implies that this bond is ionic and the combination of the two elements will lead to salt formation.
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.
Explanation:
Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).
So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons.
You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.
You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.
Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.
