CAN HF USED TO CLEAVE ETHERS EXPLAIN

Chemistry

Answer:

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.

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is always:

natka813 [3]

Answer:

d. inversely proportional to the volume of its container.

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that at constant temperature and number of moles, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas.

Thus, P ∝ T

P is the pressure

T is the temperature

For two gases at same temperature, the law can be written as:-

${P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}$

<u>Thus, according to the question, the answer is:- d. inversely proportional to the volume of its container.</u>

Complete the following single replacement reaction. If they don’t react, just write “NR”

stiv31 [10]

We have to complete all the given reactions.

1. Fe(s) + CuCl₂ → Cu + FeCl₂

2. Cu(s) + FeCl₂(aq) → NR (no reaction takes place)

3. K(s) + NiBr2(aq) → NR (no reaction takes place)

4. Ni(s) + KBr(aq) → K + NiBr₂

5. Zn(s) + Ca(NO₃)₂(aq) → NR (no reaction)

6. Ca(s) + Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) → Zn(s) + Ca(NO₃)₂(aq)

if a carbon atom is bonded to two hydrogen atoms and two carbon atoms which type of bond must exist between the carbon atoms

zavuch27 [327]

Carbon to carbon bond is nonpolar covalent since the difference of their electronegativity’s is 0. Carbon has an electronegativity of 2.5. 2.5 - 2.5 is 0 making the bond between those two atoms nonpolar covalent. I hope I answered your question.

Answer:

Missing component

Cl₂

H₂O

Explanation:

Reaction given:

? + 2NaBr → 2NaCl+Br

Mg+? → MgO+H2

missing component = ?

Solution:

Reaction 1

? + 2NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br

if we look at the reactants and products there is one element is in product side but not shown in the reactant side.

In products there are following atoms

Na (Sodium)

Cl (Chlorine)

Br (Bromine)

In Reactant there are following atoms

Na (Sodium)

Br (Bromine)

So only Chlorine is missing in the reactant side.

if we put chlorine in the reactant then this reaction will be complete

Cl + 2 NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br

So chlorine react with water and give sodium chloride and bromine molecule, this is a single displacement reaction and chlorine replace bromine in the above reaction

Now balance the equation

Cl₂ + 2 NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br₂

So, the missing component is

Cl₂

____________

Reaction 2

Mg + ? ---------→ MgO + H₂

if we look at the reactants and products there are two element in product side but not shown in the reactant side.

In products there are following atoms

Mg (Magnesium)

O (Oxygen)

H (Hydrogen)

In Reactant there is only one following atom

Mg (Magnesium)

So Oxygen and Hydrogen is missing in the reactant side.

if we put water molecule (H₂O) in the reactant then this reaction will be complete

Mg + H₂O ---------→ MgO + H₂

in this reaction magnesium (Mg) react with water (H₂O) and give magnesium oxide and hydrogen gas.

So, the missing component is

H₂O
