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 is the answer? Please

Answer:

Parasitism

Explanation:

Parasitism occurs when two organisms interact, but while one benefits, the other experiences harm. Parasites harm their hosts, as with the tapeworm attaching itself to the intestine of a cow; the tapeworm absorbs the nutrients from the cow's diet, preventing them from being absorbed by the cow.

Explain why the atomic radius of aluminium is smaller than that of sodium.
garik1379 [7]
Okay, to explain this you might have to grab a periodic table.

Do you have one? Good. Look at the most left side of the periodic table. The first group is the largest atoms in the periodic table. If you go to the right of the periodic table, the atoms get progressively smaller and smaller.

Why is this? Don't atoms get more electrons, and so become significantly bigger as they move to the right?

Although atoms do get more electrons as they go to the right, they also get more protons too. Protons pull on electrons and make atoms smaller. Because of this, going from left to right in a periodic table makes the atoms smaller and smaller, since more and more protons are added.

In this scenario, Aluminum is more to the right than Sodium, which means that it has more protons. Because of this, the protons in Aluminum pull more strongly on electrons than sodium, thus making aluminum smaller.

(Just a side note, going down in a periodic table makes the atoms bigger, since new shells are added every time)

Good luck! If you need any help, just ask :))

When performing dimensional analysis, we usually use conversion factors. What is a conversion factor?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

A conversion factor is a variable that transforms the dimension of one variable into the terms of another variable.

Explanation:

Let be x and y two variables with diferent dimensions (units), r is a conversion if transforms the dimension of one variable into the terms of the other variable. That is:

y = r\cdot x (1)

Where:

x - Input, [input unit]

y - Output, [output unit]

r - Conversion factor, [output unit] per [input unit]
