Hey there!:
Detailed solution is shown below ask if any doubt :
Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
Answer:
the reaction will shift towards the “heat”—shifts to the left
Explanation:
To summarize:
o If temperature increases (adding heat), the reaction will shift away from the “heat” term and go in the
endothermic direction.
o If temperature decreases (removing heat), the reaction will shift towards the “heat” term and go in the
exothermic direction.
o NOTE: The endothermic direction is always away from the “heat” term and the exothermic direction is
towards the “heat” term.
Therefore the reaction will shift towards the “heat”—shifts to the left
Answer:
The only PH range which is not covered by any of the given components of the universal indicator is 7.6-8.0
Hence the PH range 7.6-8 can't be described using universal indicator.
