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.
it is most likely a beaker, beacuse 300ml is quite a large volume. Otherwise, it would be a measuring cylinder or pippette
Hydrogen is different from alkali metals because it also exhibits the properties of inert gas
Answer:
Option B. 10
Explanation:
If 1 mol of butanol contains 6×10²⁴ atoms of H, let's calculate the amount of H.
(number of atoms / NA)
6.02 x 10²³ atoms ___ 1 mol
6×10²⁴ atoms will occupy (6×10²⁴ / NA) = 9.96 moles
H, has 10 moles in the butano formula.
