Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

This conversion must go through a sequence of steps as i have shown in the image attached to this answer.

The acetone is converted to propan-2-ol using LiAlH4, THF and acid. The  propan-2-ol may be converted to propene by E2 elimination. Addition of HBr yields 2-bromo propane.

The Wurtz reaction converts 2-bromo propane to 2,3- dimethyl butane. This can be brominated in the presence of light to yield 3-bromo-2,3-dimethyl butane. Elimination of HBr using a base leads to the formation of the required product as shown.

which of the following compounds exhibits dipole -dipole forces as its strongest attraction between molecules? o2,ch3Br,CCl4,He,
Archy [21]

Answer:

B. CH3Br

Explanation:

Dipole -Dipole interactions take place in polar molecules.

CH3Br exhibits dipole -dipole forces as its strongest attraction between molecules because it is a polar molecule due to the slightly negative dipole present on the Br molecule.

While O2 is a nonpolar molecule due to its linear structure, CCl4 has zero resultant dipole moment, Helium is non-polar and BrCH2CH2OH is a non polar compound having net dipole moment is zero.

Hence, the correct option is B. CH3Br.

The reaction that occurs in a Breathalyzer, a device used to determine the alcohol level in a person's bloodstream, is given bel
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given below:

2 K₂Cr₂O₇ + 8 H₂SO₄ + 3 C₂H₆O → 2 Cr₂(SO₄)₃ + 2 K₂SO₄ + 11 H₂O

From the equation of the reaction, 3 moles of C₂H₆O is used when 2 moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ are produced, therefore, the mole ratio of C₂H₆O to Cr₂(SO₄)₃ is 3:2.

The rate of appearance of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ in that particular moment is given 1.64 mol/min. This would than means that C₂H₆O must be used up at a rate which is approximately equal to their mole ratios. Thus,  the rate of of the disappearance of C₂H₆O can be calculated from the mole ratio of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ and C₂H₆O.

Rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 1.64 mol/min of  Cr₂(SO₄)₃  * 3 moles of C₂H₆O / 2 moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃

Rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min of C₂H₆O

Therefore, the rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min

Balance the following equation: __Ch4+__O2→__CO2+__H2O​
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

1,2,1,2

Explanation:

You would need only one of the CH4 but 2 of the O2 then 1 CO2 and 2 H2O on each side of the equation you now have 1 carbon, 4 hydrogen, and 4 oxygen.
