The factor in determining the average atomic mass of an element is:
B or 2 relative abundance of each isotope because the by looking at how many protons , electrons and neutrons the most isotope is of the element has relative abundance.
Answer:
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants will be equal to the mass of the products.
Explanation:
Answer:
Dissociation
Explanation:
The molecule of water is polar. This means that the hydrogen has a partial positive charge while the oxygen has a partial negative charge.
Ionic compounds have equal number of positive and negative charges.
When these compounds are placed in water, the partial positive hydrogen starts to attract the negative ion of the ionic compound while the partial negative oxygen starts to attract the positive ion of the ionic compound.
This process is called dissociation and leads to the breaking of ionic compound into cations and anions in water.
Hope this helps :)
I have provided the full reaction scheme for the synthesis of 4-methyl-3-hexanone from the reaction of acetylene and bromoethane. Acetylene is initially reacted with NaNH₂ which is a strong base that deprotonates the C-H of the acetylene which creates a carbon nucleophile which will then attack the electrophilic carbon containing the bromo in bromoethane. This is a simple sn2 substitution. Essentially an ethyl group is added to each side of the triple bond in acetylene.
With the 3-hexyne in hand, the triple bond is reduced using Lindlar's catalyst which will hydrogenate only to the alkene and stop. The 3-hexene is then reacted with a peroxycarboxylic acid which is used to epoxidize the alkene, to give the epoxide.
The epoxide is reacted with the grignard reagent which treats the methyl as a strong nucleophile. The methyl adds to one carbon of the epoxide and opens the ring. The acid is added at the end to protonate the alcohol.
Finally, the alcohol is oxidized with chromic acid which will oxidize a secondary alcohol to the ketone. The final product is 4-methyl-3-hexanone.
