The exact mechanism of this reaction is a little complicated, as it involves the copper ions. However, the process involves the

formation of small amounts of bromine in situ. Draw the mechanism of the bromination of 4-tert-butyl phenol with Br2. -g

Answer:

see picture below

Explanation:

The mechanism is in the following picture.

In the first step, the lone pair of oxygen (from the OH) as it's a strong activating group in the molecule, will go to the ring. This will cause that the double bond of the ring of the ortho position, attacks as nucleophyle to the Br2, causing the breaking of the bond.

In the second step, the bromine ion substract the hydrogen from the ortho position, and then, by resonance, the pair of electrons returns to the oxygen of the phenol.

It is observed that the atoms of hydrogen in gas discharge tube emit radiations whose spectrum shows line characteristics (line
azamat

Answer: the line Spectra of hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red of the electro magnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation spans an wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. The 7 regions includes; radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays.

lower-energy radiation, such as radio waves, is expressed as frequency while microwaves, infrared, visible and UV light are usually expressed as wavelength and finally, higher-energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, is expressed in terms of energy per photon.

Therefore, hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red region of the electro magnetic spectrum.

SCIENCE, PLEASE HELP.
sesenic [268]

Answer: B

Explanation:

protons are positive,

electrons are negative,

and neutrons are neutral.

the amount of electrons to protons is always the same in a balanced atom.

electrons can be removed creating "ions" which is simply an unbalanced atom. removing protons would result in a different type of atom or element.
