Answer:
Aluminum iodide (AlI₃)
Explanation:
The synthesis reaction of aluminum (Al) and iodine (I) can be illustrated as shown below:
Aluminium exhibit trivalent positive ion (Al³⁺)
Iodine exhibit univalent negative ion (I¯)
During reaction, there will be an exchange of ion as shown below:
Al³⁺ + I¯ —> AlI₃
Thus, we can write the balanced equation for the reaction as follow:
Al + I₂ —› AlI₃
There are 2 atoms of I on the left side and 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of AlI₃ and 3 in front of I₂ as shown below:
Al + 3I₂ —› 2AlI₃
There are 2 atoms of Al on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Al as shown below:
2Al + 3I₂ —› 2AlI₃
Thus the equation is balanced.
The product on the reaction is aluminum iodide (AlI₃)
I think the second choice but I might be wrong
Answer:
Nucleophilic reaction
and
Explanation:
A nucleophilic reaction is a type of reaction that involves attack of a specie having a negative charge or a lone pair of electrons on a positive center. This negatively charged specie or specie having a lone pair of electrons is called a nucleophile.
An SN2 reaction is a bimolecular, concerted nucleophilic reaction that leads to inversion of configuration at the carbon center. The leaving group is the group that departs from the frontside of the molecule as the nucleophile attacks from the backside.
