CAN HF USED TO CLEAVE ETHERS EXPLAIN

Chemistry
1 answer:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

no

Explanation:

Fluoride is not nucleophilic (having the tendency to donate electrons) enough to allow for the use of HF to cleave ethers in protic media(protic solvents are polar liquid compounds that have dissociable hydrogen atoms). The rate of reaction is comparably low, so that heating of the reaction mixture is required.

A person weighed 15 pennies on a balance and recorded the following masses:
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

A)  yes

B) The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g /  12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

Explanation:

A) I think the the Bureau of Mint changed the way it made pennies because from the experiment and observation carried out on 15 different pennies it can be seen that they had different weights and this difference is associated with the period/time of production of the different pennies,

B ) The average mass of any object should be expressed in the si unit of mass and not having ($) sign attached to the value instead it should be expressed in grams or kilograms (s.i unit of mass )

The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g /  12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

Shiny; ductile; solid at room temperature which of the elements best fits the description? hint: look at your periodic table.
avanturin [10]
Take the attached picture of a periodic table as a guide. You are finding for a solid metal. Therefore, streamline your choices by looking at elements written in black bold letters, because they are all solid. Next, if you look at the center, the legend for metals are colors in orange, yellow, flesh, lavender, pink, and cyan blue. These region would be your choices. Next, you want to find a metal that is shiny and ductile. The shiny appearance is a common characteristic of luster by materials. Ductility is the ability of a metal to stretch when under tensile stress. These properties are best exhibited by metals in the transitions metals colored in pink. Therefore, the answer to your question would be any of the metal in the pink area. Examples are Titanium, Chromium, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Tungsten, etc.

hammer [34]
  • <u>The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, provided that the volume does not change (Amontons's law)</u><u>.</u>

  • <u> The volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is held constant (Boyle's law).</u>

HELP. NO FAKE ANSWERS. I WILL REPORT. I AM CONFUSED AND NEED HELP. FILL IN THE NOT FILLED BOXES POR FAVOR.
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Question #1
Potasium hydroxide (known)
 volume used is 25 ml 
Molarity (concentration) = 0.150 M
Moles of KOH used 
           0.150 × 25/1000 = 0.00375 moles
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) 
volume used = 15.0 ml
unknown concentration
The equation for the reaction is
2KOH (aq)+ H2SO4(aq) = K2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) 
Thus, the Mole ratio of KOH to H2SO4 is 2:1
Therefore, moles of H2SO4 used will be;
      0.00375 × 1/2 = 0.001875 moles
Acid (sulfuric acid)  concentration
    0.001875 moles × 1000/15  
        = 0.125 M

Question #2
Hydrogen bromide (acid)
Volume used = 30 ml
Concentration is 0.250 M
Moles of HBr used;
      0.25 × 30/1000
        =  0.0075 moles 
Sodium Hydroxide (base)
Volume used 20 ml 
Concentration (unknown)
The equation for the reaction is 
NaOH + HBr = NaBr + H2O
The mole ratio of NaOH : HBr   is 1 : 1
Therefore, moles of NaOH used;
                 = 0.0075 moles
NaOH concentration will be 
       = 0.0075 moles × 1000/20
       = 0.375 M
