Answer:

Explanation:

C decays by a process called beta decay. During this process, an atom of 14C decays into an atom of 14N, during which one of the neutrons in the carbon atom becomes a proton. This increases the number of protons in the atom by one, creating a nitrogen atom rather than a carbon atom.

One mole of acetyl chloride was mixed with one mole of dimethylamine. After the reaction is complete, what species can be found

fredd [130]

Answer:

N,N-dimethylacetamide is formed.

Explanation:

It is an example of a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction. Here dimethylamine acts as a nucleophile.
In the first step, dimethyl amine gives nucleophilic addition reaction at carbonyl center of acetyl chloride.
In the second step, removal of Cl atoms occurs.
In the third step, deprotonation takes place from amino group to produce N,N-dimethylacetamide.
Full reaction mechanism has been shown below.
