Answer: (Structure attached).

Explanation:

This type of reaction is an aromatic electrophilic substitution. The overall reaction is the replacement of a proton (H +) with an electrophile (E +) in the aromatic ring.

The aromatic ring in p-fluoroanisole has two sustituents, an <u>halogen</u> and a <u>methoxy group</u>, which are <em>ortho-para</em> directing substituents.

Aryl sulfonic acids are easily synthesized by an electrophilic substitution reaction aromatic using <u>sulfur trioxide as an electrophile</u> (very reactive).

The reaction occurs in three steps:

  1. The attack on the electrophile forms the sigma complex.
  2. The loss of a proton regenerates an aromatic ring.
  3. The sulfonate group can be protonated in the presence of a strong acid (H₂SO₄).

Normally, a mixture of <em>ortho-para</em> substituted products would be obtained. However, since both <em>para</em> positions are occupied, only the <em>ortho </em>substituted product is obtained here.

What characteristic frequencies in the infrared spectrum of your sodium borohydride reduction product will you look for to deter
kkurt [141]

Answer:

A)The characteristic frequency to look out for is  1720-1740 cm-1 (for C=O) for which will disappear in the end product but initially present in the reactant.

B)Characteristic frequency  present in the infrared spectrum will be at a peak of  3300-3400 cm-1 which will be due to O-H stretch.

C)If the product is wet with water there will be no change in the infrared spectrum

Explanation:

The characteristic frequency to look out for is  1720-1740 cm-1 (for C=O) for which will disappear in the end product but initially present in the reactant.

Characteristic frequency  present in the infrared spectrum will be at a peak of 3300-3400 cm-1 which will be due to O-H stretch.

If the product is wet with water there will be no change in the infrared spectrum

Which polymer structure should be used if a strong and heat - resistant adhesive is required?
alexira [117]

Cross-linked polymers are strong and heat - resistant hence they can be used for this purpose.

A polymer is obtained by the combination of small molecules called monomers. A polymer consists of a regular repeating unit of small molecules called monomers.

A cross-linked polymer is a polymer in which covalent bonds are used to join polymer chains together. Cross-linked polymers are strong and heat - resistant hence they can be used for this purpose.

What is the density (g/mL) of an object that has a mass of 0.03 kg and occupies a volume of 25 mL?
tatyana61 [14]
First convert the kg to g ----- 0.03kg = 30g
Then divide the mass by the volume ----- 30g ÷ 25mL = 1.2
The density is 1.2g/mL<span />
