Answer:
an increase in 1-butene was observed when t-butoxide was used
Explanation:
When a base reacts with an alkyl halide, an elimination product is formed. This reaction is an E2 reaction.
Here we are to compare the reaction of two different bases with one substrate; 2-bromobutane. Both reactions occur by the E2 mechanism but follow different transition states due to the size of the base.
The Saytzeff product, 2-butene, is obtained when the methoxide is used while the non Saytzeff product, 1-butene, is obtained when t-butoxide is used.
The Saytzeff rule is reliable in predicting the major products of simple elimination reactions of alkyl halides given the fact that a small/strong bases is used for the elimination reaction. Therefore hydroxide, methoxide and ethoxide bases give similar results for the same alkyl halide substrate. Bulky bases such as tert-butoxide tend to yield a higher percentage of the non Saytzeff product and this is usually attributed to steric hindrance.
Answer:
Plants consume carbon through transpiration
Explanation:
In transpiration, plants lose water vapor through the stomata in their leaves. No carbon is involved in transpiration, which has an outbound direction. Nothing can be consumed through the stomata when vapor is going out of the plant. It´s like trying to get in through the exit.
Answer:
(2R,3S)-2-chloro-3,5-dimethylhexane
Explanation:
As first step we have the <u>attack of the OH group</u> to the P atom in the PCl3 and one of the Cl atoms would leave. Then we will have a <u>rearrangement</u> to produce a <u>double bond </u>with the oyxgen on the OH. Finally the Cl produced will a<u>ttack the carbon</u> in a <u>Sn2 substitution reaction</u> to produce the halide with an <u>opposite configuration</u>.
Answer:
the answer is D
Explanation:
percentage composition= mole of the substance divided by the total molar mass of the compound multiplied by 100.
