In the decomposition reaction, 1 mole of water (mw = 18.015 g/mol) was produced for every mole of cuo (mw = 79.545 g/mol) produc
natita [175]

Reactives -> Products

CuO and water are products.

I found this reaction which has CuO and water as products: decomposition of Cu(OH)2.

Cu(OH)2 -> CuO + H2O

Stoichiometry calculus involve the mole proportions you can see in the reaction: When 1 mole of Cu(OH)2 reacts, 1 mole of CuO and 1 mole of H2O are formed.

Considering the molar masses:

Cu(OH)2 = 83.56 g/mol

CuO = 79.545 g/mol

H2O = 18.015 g/mol

Then: When 83.56 g of Cu(OH)2 react, 79.545 g of CuO and 18.015 g H2O are formed.

You should use that numbers in the rule of three:

79.545 g CuO __________18.015 g water

3.327 g CuO__________ x =3.327*18.015 /79.545 g water 

x= 0.7535 g water

The following mechanism has been proposed for the conversion of tert-butyl bromide to tert-butyl alcohol in aqueous solution: st
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The first step in this reaction is a unimolecular reaction. It involves the formation of the carbocation. This is so because tertiary alkyl halides only undergo substitution by SN1 mechanism due to sterric crowding.

The second step in the reaction is bi molecular. In this step, the carbocation now combines with the OH^- to yield the alcohol.

Net equation of the reaction is;

(CH3)3CBr + OH^- -------> (CH3)3COH + Br^-

The intermediate here is the carbocation,  (CH3)3C^+
