Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
Answer: 1.6L
Explanation:
V1 = 1.50 L,
V2 =?
n1 = 3mol
n2 = 3 + 0.2 = 3.2mol
From PV = nRT
V1 /n1 = V2/n2
1.5/3 = V2 /3.2
V2 = (1.5/3/) x 3.2 = 1.6L
Explanation:
Most reagent forms are going to absorb water from the air; they're called "hygroscopic". Water presence can have a drastic impact on the experiment being performed For fact, it increases the reagent's molecular weight, meaning that anything involving a very specific molarity (the amount of molecules in the final solution) will not function properly.
Heating will help to eliminate water, although some chemicals don't react well to heat, so it shouldn't be used for all. A dessicated environment is simply a means to "dry." That allows the reagent with little water in the air to attach with.
Just search it up on the internet:)
