Explain how a neutral paper fragment can be attracted to a charged rod

Chemistry
1 answer:
Yuliya22 [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The particles in the neutral paper can shift, causing the paper to become polarized and attracted to the rod.

Explanation:

The neutral paper has an even distribution of its electrons throughout the paper. If a charged rod is brought near the neutral paper, this can cause the electrons in the paper to shift. If the rod is negative, the electrons will be repelled from the rod and cause the molecules in the paper to have a slight positive charge on the part of the paper closest to the rod. If the rod is positive, the electrons will be attracted to the rod and cause a slight negative charge on the side of the paper closest to the rod.

What type of reaction is Mg + Cl^2>MgCl^2
Paul [167]

Answer:

Synthesis.

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

For example:

Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂

when magnesium combine with chlorine it form magnesium chloride.

Magnesium is alkaline earth metal and present in group two. Magnesium has two valance electrons. Magnesium atom loses its two electron to complete the octet.  Chlorine is halogen element and have seven valance electrons. Chlorine needed one electron to complete the octet. When it combine with magnesium atom it accept the two electrons from magnesium atom that's why two chlorine atoms are combine with one magnesium atom to make the compound neutral.

In your discussion consider a SN2 reaction mechanism concept. Propose a modification of experimental procedure that would improv
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.

A. Mechanism

Step 1

NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.

Step 2

The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.

B. Improve the yield

You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.

You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.

A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.

C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols

Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.

This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.

Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.

Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.

A molecule of water then removes the proton.
