Based on location in the periodic table, fluorine (F) has chemical properties that are most similar to iodine.

In the periodic table, elements are classified in groups and periods. The elements in the same group are chemically similar and they have the same number of valence electrons. Elements in the same period have the same highest energy level.

Hence, when looking for an element that is most chemically similar to iodine, we have to consider the element that is in the same group with iodine.

Both fluorine are iodine are both in group 17 hence, fluorine is most chemically similar to iodine.

According to its periodic table entry, how many electrons does nitrogen have in its valence level?

Goryan [66]

The valence level of an atom refers to the number of electrons that reside in the upper most energy level. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 and therefore has 7 electrons. The first energy level (1) holds 2 electrons, leaving 5 electrons to reside in the second energy level (2s and 2p). Therefore the valence of nitrogen is 5.

Which acid could not be prepared by treating a Grignard reagent with CO2?

Anni [7]

Answer:

4-oxopentanoic acid.

Explanation:

In this case, we must remember that the Grignard reaction is a reaction in which carbanions are produced. Carboanions have the ability to react with CO2 to generate a new C-C bond and a carboxylate ion. Finally, the acid medium will protonate the carboxylate to produce the carboxylic acid group. 

The molecules that can follow the mechanism described above are the molecules: p-methylbenzoic acid, cyclopentane carboxylic acid and 3-methylbutanoic acid. (See figure 1)

In the case of 4-oxopentanoic acid, the possible carbanion will attack the carbonyl group to generate a cyclic structure and an alcohol group (1-methylcyclopropan-1-ol). Therefore, this molecule cannot be produced by this reaction. (See figure 2)
