Answer:
The reaction will be slower because the leaving group will be poorer.
Explanation:
One Important thing to put at the back of our mind is that weak bases are good leaving groups. Another thing to take note is that in the halogen series(which is our main subject in this question) as you go down the group the greater or the more heavy the halide is and the heavier halides are more stable that is Bromine will be more stable than chlorine.
Now, we are now told that the bromo halide is been replaced by the chloro halide which means that the rate of Reaction will surely decrease because the leaving group. The cl^- is a stronger base.
A. Sodium is correct.
Sodium is an alkali metal.
Aluminum is a post-transitional metal- still a metal but it’s character is not as metallic as sodium.
Silicon is a metalloid- it has characteristics from both the metals and the non-metals.
Phosphorous is a non-metal.
Ionization energy (IE) is the amount of energy required to remove an electron.
If you observe the IEs sequentially, there is a large gap between the 2nd and 3rd. This suggests it is difficult to remove more than 2 two electrons. Elements that lose two electrons to become more stable are found in the Group 2A (2 representing the number of electrons in the outermost valence shell).
Using p1v1/t1=p2v2/t2
p1=50
p2=225
v1=400ml
v2=?
t1=-20=253k
t2=60=333k
50x400/253=225xv2/333
7.9=0.7xv2
v2=7.9/0.7
v2=11.3ml
