identify the reagents you would use to convert each of the following compounds into pentanoic acid: (a) 1-pentene (b) 1-bromobut
Morgarella [4.7K]

a)BH3.THF is used to convert 1-pentane to pentanoic acid and b)NaCN is used to convert Bromobutane to pentanoic acid.

a) The conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid using BH3, also known as hydroboration-oxidation, is a two-step reaction involving the reaction of 1-pentane with borane (BH3), followed by oxidation of the resulting 1-pentylborane with hydrogen peroxide or other oxidizing agents.

In the first step, 1-pentane reacts with borane (BH3) to form 1-pentylborane, through a process known as hydroboration. This reaction is catalyzed by a Lewis acid, such as aluminum chloride, and proceeds via a hydride transfer from the borane to the 1-pentane.

In the second step, the 1-pentylborane is oxidized to pentanoic acid using hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) or other suitable oxidizing agents. The oxidation is catalyzed by an acid, such as hydrochloric acid (HCl), and proceeds via a proton transfer from the 1-pentylborane to the hydrogen peroxide. The end result is the conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid.

The overall chemical reaction for the conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid using borane (BH₃) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is as follows:

1-pentane + BH₃ + H₂O₂ → pentanoic acid + H₂O + BH₂

b)The conversion of 1-Bromo butane to pentanoic acid using sodium cyanide (NaCN) proceeds via a nucleophilic substitution reaction. The reaction mechanism involves the following steps:

1. Attack of the nucleophile, NaCN, on the carbon atom of 1-Bromo butane to form a tetrahedral intermediate.

2. Loss of a proton from the tetrahedral intermediate to form a carbanion.

3. Protonation of the carbanion by water (or another proton source) to form pentanoic acid.

The overall reaction can be represented as follows:

1-Bromo butane + NaCN → Pentanoic Acid + NaBr

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.

Material from an environmental study was suspected to contain the banned pesticide, Aldrin, of which you have a pure sample. Gas
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

In order  to determine unequivocally which of the peaks represent Aldrin, I would run the pure sample through the chromatography equipment.

Explanation:

Gas chromatography is a technique that separates molecules based on their volatility and interaction with both the stationary phase.

The peaks on the chromatogram show how long a substance took to leave the column. Since each different substance substance will leave the column at a different time, each peak can be attributed to a substance.

Therefore, to know which of the 6 peaks represent Aldrin, it is necessary to run the pure Aldrin in the chromatography equipment and see the time of the peak. Then you just need to compare both chromatograms and indentify Aldrin.
