When butane reacts with Br2 in the presence of Cl2, both brominated and chlorinated products are obtained. Under such conditions

, the usual selectivity of bromination is not observed. In other words, the ratio of 2-bromobutane to 1-bromobutane is very similar to the ratio of 2-chlorobutane to 1-chlorobutane. Can you offer and explanation as to why we do not observe the normal selectivity expected for bromination

Answer:

Bromine radical formation is carried out in the presence of Br₂ and Cl₂ causing the normal selectivity not to be observed ( this causes the difference in activation energy to be reduced )

Explanation:

<em>Why the normal selectivity expected for bromination is not observed </em>

On the basis of selectivity and applying the Arrhenius equation the greater the difference between the activation energies the more the selectivity.

as seen in the formation of primary and secondary radicals in the Bromine radical formation. this difference is caused mainly by the propagation step ( exothermic ) . But the main reason why the the usual selectivity of bromination is not observed is because it Bromine radical formation is carried out in the presence of Br₂ and Cl₂ ( this causes the difference in activation energy to be reduced )

Assuming that an acetic acid solution is 12% by mass and that the density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL, what volume of 1 M NaOH
Doss [256]

Explanation:

Let us assume that total mass of the solution is 100 g. And, as it is given that acetic acid solution is 12% by mass which means that mass of acetic acid is 12 g and 88 g is the water.

Now, calculate the number of moles of acetic acid as its molar mass is 60 g/mol.

    No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                           = \frac{12 g}{60 g/mol}

                           = 0.2 mol

Molarity of acetic acid is calculated as follows.

              Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

                 1 g/ml = \frac{100 g}{volume}

                    volume = 100 ml

Hence, molarity = \frac{\text{no. of moles}}{volume}

                           = \frac{0.2 mol}{0.1 L}

                           = 2 mol/l

As reaction equation for the given reaction is as follows.

     NaOH + CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow CH_{3}COONa + H_{2}O

So,          moles of NaOH = moles of acetic acid

Let us suppose that moles of NaOH are "x".

          x \times 1 M = 10 mL \times 2 M     (as 1 L = 1000 ml)

                        x = 20 L

Thus, we can conclude that volume of NaOH required is 20 ml.

diagram 1 above shows equimolar samples of two gases inside a container fitted with a removable barrier placed so that each gas
vampirchik [111]

This problem is describing the state two gases have when separated and together as shown on the attached picture. First of all, diagram 1 shows how they are separated in two containers with apparently equal volumes, whereas diagram 2 shows the removal of the barrier so that they get mixed together.

In this case, we can analyze that each gas has its own pressure and due to the removal of the barrier, both pressure and volume undergo a change. Thus, we can infer that the final volume is doubled with respected to the initial one for each gas, causing the pressure of each gas to be halved and the total pressure the half of the added ones, in agreement to the Boyle's law (inversely proportional relationship between pressure and temperature).

Therefore, the correct choice is:

C. The partial pressure of each gas in the mixture is half its initial pressure; the final total pressure is half the sum of the initial pressures of the two gases.
