Answer:

Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride

Explanation:

During a nucleophilic substitution reaction, a nucleophilie replaces another in a molecule.

This process may occur via an ionic mechanism (SN1) or via a concerted mechanism (SN2).

In either case, the ease of departure of the leaving group is determined by the nature of the C-X bond. The stronger the C-X bond, the worse the leaving group will be in nucleophilic substitution. The order of strength of C-X bond is F>Cl>Br>I.

Hence, iodine displays the weakest C-X bond strength and it is thus, a very good leaving group in nucleophillic substitution while fluorine displays a very high C-X bond strength hence it is a bad leaving group in nucleophilic substitution.

Therefore, the ease of the use of halide ions as leaving groups follows the trend; Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride

An atom of a particular element is traveling at 1.00% of the speed of light. The de Broglie wavelength is found to be 3.31 × 10-
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The given atom is of Ca.

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of atom = 1% of speed of light

De-broglie wavelength = 3.31×10⁻³ pm (3.31×10⁻³ / 10¹² = 3.31×10⁻¹⁵ m)

What is element = ?

Solution:

Formula:

m = h/λv

m = mass of particle

h  = planks constant

v = speed of particle

λ = wavelength

Now we will put the values in formula.

m = h/λv

m = 6.63×10⁻³⁴kg. m².s⁻¹/3.31×10⁻¹⁵ m ×( 1/100)×3×10⁸ m/s

m = 6.63×10⁻³⁴kg. m².s⁻¹/ 0.099×10⁻⁷m²/s

m = 66.97×10⁻²⁷ Kg/atom

or

6.69×10⁻²⁶ Kg/atom

Now here we will use the Avogadro number.

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

Now in given problem,

6.69×10⁻²⁶ Kg/atom × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/ mol × 1000 g/ 1kg

40.3×10⁻³×10³g/mol

40.3  g/mol

So the given atom is of Ca.
