Answer:

The plum-pudding model did not identify a central nucleus as the source of a positive charge.

Explanation:

Sir Joseph John Thomson, most popularly known as J J Thomson. He was a famous scientist who was awarded the Noble prize for Physics for his discovery of the subatomic particle, electron.

He placed his famous model of an atom which is known as plum pudding model. He proposed that the atoms are described as the negative particles that is floating within a soup of the diffuse positive charge.

But the main defect of his proposal was that it did not recognized the presence of a central nucleus as a positive charged source.

Draw the major organic substitution product(s) for (2R,3S)-2-bromo-3-methylpentane reacting with the given nucleophile. Indicate

Andrew [12]

Answer:

(2R,3S)-2-ethoxy-3-methylpentane

and

(2S,3S)-2-ethoxy-3-methylpentane

Explanation:

For this case, we will have $CH_3CH_2O^-$ as nucleophile. Also, this compound is also in excess. So, we will have as solvent $CH_3CH_2OH$ a protic solvent. Therefore the Sn1 reaction would be favored.

The first step would be the carbocation formation followed by the attack of the nucleophile. In this case both isomers would be produced: R and S (see figure).
