Answer:
A one-step mechanism involving a transition state that has a carbon partially bonded to both chlorine and oxygen
Explanation:
The compound CH3Cl is methyl chloride. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction that proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. The SN2 mechanism is a concerted reaction mechanism. This means that the departure of the leaving group is assisted by the incoming nucleophile. The both species are partially bonded to opposite sides of the carbon atom in the transition state.
Recall that an SN2 reaction is driven by the attraction between the negative charge of the nucleophile (OH^-) and the positive charge of the electrophile (the partial positive charge on the carbon atom bearing the chlorine leaving group).
Answer:
A fractional distillation with a dehydrant
Answer: __3__Na2CO3 + __2__Ag3P → __2__Na3P + __3__Ag2CO3
Explanation:
In balancing equations you need to make sure the number of atoms before the reaction should be equal to the number of atoms after the reaction.
Before the reaction: We had 6Na, 9CO, 6Ag and 2p
After the reaction: We have 6Na, 9CO, 6Ag and 2p
And now we are sure that atoms before the reaction are equal to atoms after the reaction
