Answer:
The two main types of bonds formed between atoms are ionic bonds and covalent bonds.
Explanation:
An ionic bond is formed when one atom accepts or donates one or more of its valence electrons to another atom. A covalent bond is formed when atoms share valence electrons.

Be sure to answer all parts. For the complete redox reactions given here, write the half-reactions and identify the oxidizing an

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer : $O_2$ is the oxidizing agent and Fe is the reducing agent.

Explanation :

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The balanced redox reaction is :

$4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3$

The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:

Oxidation reaction : $Fe\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-$

Reduction reaction : $O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2O^{2-}$

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply the oxidation reaction by 4 and reduction reaction by 3 then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation reaction : $4Fe\rightarrow 4Fe^{3+}+12e^-$

Reduction reaction : $3O_2+12e^-\rightarrow 6O^{2-}$

$4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3$

In this reaction, $'Fe'$ is the reducing agent that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets oxidized and $'O_2'$ is the oxidizing agent that gain an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets reduced.

Thus, $O_2$ is the oxidizing agent and Fe is the reducing agent.

2.Which of the alcohols listed below would you expect to react most rapidly with PBr3?A)CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OHB)(CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

Explanation:

For this question, we have the following answer options:

A) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

B) (CH3CH2)2CH(OH)CH2CH3

C) (CH3CH2)2CHOHCH3

D) (CH3CH2)3COH

E) (CH3CH2)2C(CH3)OH

We have to remember the reaction mechanism of the substitution reaction with $PBr_3$ . The idea is to generate a better leaving group in order to add a "Br" atom.

The $PBr_3$ attacks the "OH" generation new a bond to P (O-P bonds are very strong), due to this new bond we will have a better leaving group that can remove the oxygen an allow the attack of the Br atom to generating a new C-Br bond. This is made by an Sn2 reaction. Therefore we will have a faster reaction with primary substrates. In this case, the only primary substrate is molecule A. So, "CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH" will react faster.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
