Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

To get a better understanding watch the picture attached.

In the case of the reaction with Bromine, the -N(CH₃)₂ is a strong ring activator, therefore, it promotes a electrophilic aromatic sustitution, so, in the mechanism of reaction, the lone pair of the Nitrogen, will move to the ring by resonance and activate the ortho and para positions. That's why the bromine wil go to the ortho and para positions, mostly the para position, because the -N(CH₃)₂ cause a steric hindrance in the ortho position.

In the case of the reaction with HNO₃/H₂SO₄, the acid transform the -N(CH₃)₂ in a protonated form, the anilinium ion, which is a deactivating of the ring, and also a strong electron withdrawing, so, the electrophile will go to the meta position instead.

Hope this helps.

Is the equation for reaction 1 balanced? Explain your reasoning. If the reaction is not balanced, then state how you would balan
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Reaction is already balanced

Explanation:

The equation in reaction 1 is given as;

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> CO2 + H2O +  Na+   +  CH3COO-

The reaction is already balanced. This is because the umber of atoms of elements in the reactant is equal to that of the products

Carbon

Reactant = 2 + 1 = 3

Product = 2 + 2 = 3

Hydrogen

Reactant = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5

Product = 2 + 3 = 5

Oxygen

Reactant = 2 + 3 = 5

Product = 2 +1 + 2 = 5

Sodium

Reactant = 1

Product = 1

Which statements accurately describe soap? Select one or more:
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A. Soaps react with ions in hard water to create a precipitate.

B. Soaps are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic.

D. Soaps should be weakly alkaline in solution.

Explanation:

A. Hard water contains <u>magnesium and calcium minerals</u> like calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfates and bicarbonates. As soon as these minerals come in contact with soap their ions like Mg²⁺ & Ca²⁺ form precipitates.

B. Soap are both hydrophilic and hydrophobic. They reason why they exhibit both the properties is really important for their functionality. The hydrophobic part of soap makes interaction with oil/dust particles while the hydrophilic part makes interaction with water. When the cloth is rinsed the dirt/soap particles are removed from the dirty clothes thereby making them clean.

C. Soaps have alkaline pH i.e. more than 7 that is why they have bitter taste.
