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.

Scientists think the earth is approximately _____ years old.
diamong [38]

Answer is 4 ½ billion.

Scientists think the earth's age is 4 ½ billion. This calculation is based on the radioactive dating. Since the formation of the earth, the time period has been divided into 3 major geological time periods as eon. They are phanerozoic, proterozoic and archean.

We have a sample of water vapor which cools from 150 °C to 125 °C. What happens to the motion of the molecules during this time
pentagon [3]

The motion of the molecules decreases.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Gases are formed when the energy in a system overcomes the attractive forces between the molecules. The gases expand to fill the space they occupy. In this way, the gas molecules interact little. In the gaseous state, the molecules move very quickly. As the temperature decreases, the amount of movement of the individual molecules also decreases.
  • The fast-moving particle slows down. When a particle speeds up, it has more kinetic energy. When a particle slows down, it has less kinetic energy. The particles in solid form are commonly connected through electrostatic powers. They don't get enough space to move around, therefore, their speed diminishes, they can't keep their standard speed like in the vaporous or fluid state.

Write the full ground state electron configuration of C − C− . electron configuration: Which neutral atom is isoelectronic with
stepan [7]

Answer: 1. Is2 2s2 2p3

2. Nitrogen

Explanation: The number of electron present In C = 6

But an extra electron is added since the charge on C is -1, this therefore makes the total electron 7.

1. By arrangement, the Electronic configuration is therefore;

Ans: 1s2 2s2 2p3

2. It is explained how C has 7 electrons, we can proceed then.

Neutral atom have atomic number of 7.

The element with atomic number of 7 is;

Ans: NITROGEN

A glass holds 6 ounces of 60-proof rum (30 alcohol). how much fruit juice must be added to the rum so that the mixture is dilute
Elenna [48]

We need an equation that will relate the concentrated mixture and the diluted one. To solve this we use the equation, 

M1 V1 = M2 V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

M1V1 = M2V2

30 % x 6 oz = 20 %  x V2

V2 = 9 oz 


The volume of the diluted mixture would be 9 oz. Therefore, you will need to add 9 oz - 6 oz = 3 oz of fruit juice to dilute the 30 percent alcohol to 20 percent alcohol.
