Answer:
6
Explanation:
This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.
Dehydration is removal of water.
In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.
In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].
The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.
The process or mechanism can be understood as:
so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene
Answer:
72.6 grams
Explanation:
I got this answer through stoichiometry. For every 1 mole of Mg, 2 moles of CuBr are consumed. Because of this, multiply the moles of Mg by 2. Then, convert moles to grams.
Answer : The pressure of the helium gas is, 1269.2 mmHg
Explanation :
To calculate the pressure of the gas we are using ideal gas equation:

where,
P = Pressure of
gas = ?
V = Volume of
gas = 210. mL = 0.210 L (1 L = 1000 mL)
n = number of moles
= 0.0130 mole
R = Gas constant = 
T = Temperature of
gas = 
Putting values in above equation, we get:


Conversion used : (1 atm = 760 mmHg)
Thus, the pressure of the helium gas is, 1269.2 mmHg
