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.
The heat transfer formula is;
Q = m * c * Δ T >>>> (1)
where, Q is the heat transfer
m = mass (gram)
c = the specific heat capacity (J/g)
Δ T = change in temperature
∵ we have one mole of Ethanol
∴ the weight of ethanol equals its molecular weight = (2*12)+(6*1)+(16) = 46 g
we will assume that the specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2.46 J/g (from google)
ΔT = 25 - 320 = - 295 C
By substitution in (1)
∴ Q = 2.46 * 46 * (-295) = - 33382.2 J
Answer:
Strong acid breaks up into ions
Explanation:
A large volume of material will have a small amount of mass when the
material in question is gaseous or porous, and therefore has a lot of
space within it despite taking up a large amount of space overall.
