Question

Diisopropyl ether reacts with concentrated aqueous HI to form two initial organic products

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The reaction between Diisopropyl ether and concentrated aqueous HI forms two initial organic products as shown in the image attached.

The hydrogen of the HI becomes attached to the oxygen in the ether leading to a cleavage of the C-O bond to yield the first compound. The I^- become attached to the other moiety in the original molecule to yield the second compound as shown in the image attached.
