Answer:

1. Ionic bond

2. High melting point and high boiling point for ionic bonds while covalent bonds have low melting and boiling point.

3. The similarity is that ionic and covalent bonding lead to the creation of stable molecules.

4. 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

5. It uses the process of fission.

6. Fission involves the splitting of radioactive elements into smaller particles/compounds while Fusion involves combining of two or more atomic nuclei to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

7. Nuclear power plants produce little to no greenhouse gas.

Nuclear power plants produce a large amount of energy for a small mass of fuel.

Nuclear is less expensive.

What compound is formed when 2,2-dimethyloxirane (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane) is treated with ethanol containing sulfuric acid

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have an "epoxide" (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane). Additionally, we have acid medium (due to the sulfuric acid $H_2SO_4$ ). The acid medium will produce the hydronium ion ( $H^+$ ). This ion would be attacked by the oxygen of the epoxide. Then a carbocation would be produced, in this case, the most stable carbocation is the tertiary one. Then an ethanol molecule acts as a nucleophile and will attack the carbocation. Finally, a deprotonation step takes place to produce 2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol.
