Answer:
See explanation and image attached
Explanation:
Let us examine the statements in the question carefully. First of all, we will discover that the products of the E2 elimination of the both compounds are isomeric. However Y does not undergo SN2 reaction as X does.
The fact that SN2 reaction does not occur in Y confirms that the bromine atom is attached to a tertiary carbon atom and SN2 reaction does not occur due to steric hinderance. Since X undergoes SN2 reaction in aprotic solvent, the chlorine atom must be attached to a secondary carbon atom.
However, E2 reactions does occur with tertiary alkyl halides when strong bases such as OH^- or RO^- are used.
The question also stated that the catalytic hydrogenation of Z affords 3-ethylpentane.
Putting all these together, the structures of X and Y have been suggested in the image attached to this answer.
Answer:
The density of the metal is 0.561 g/mL
Explanation:
The computation of the density of the metal is shown below;
As we know that
The Density of the metal is
where,
Mass = 4.9g
Change in volume = 6.9 mL
Now place these values to the above formula
So, the density of the metal is
= 0.561 g/mL
Hence, the density of the metal is 0.561 g/mL
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct density could arrive
