astraxan [27]
The reaction between hydrogen (H2) and fluorine (F2) is given below,
                                   H2 + F2 ---> 2HF
One mole of both hydrogen and fluorine yields to 2 moles of hydrogen fluoride. This can also be expressed as, 2 grams of hydrogen and 38 grams of fluorine will form 40 grams of hydrogen fluoride. From the given, only 20 grams of HF is formed with 19 g of it being fluorine. Thus, the percentage fluorine of the compound formed is 95%.

  3. Zaitsev
  4. Zaitsev
  5. Carbocation

Explanation:

  • The mechanism is generally accepted to always operate via an ELIMINATION step-wise process.
  • The ELIMINATION mechanism process will always produce (after dehydration) a ZAITSEV style alkene as major product
  • The driving force for the production of this ZAITSEV style alkene product is generally going to be determined by stability of the CARBOCATION

Elimination mechanism is the removal of two substituents  from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism

Carbocation is a molecule containing a positive charged carbon atom and three bonds
