Best Answer

Bromobenzene is a clear, colorless liquid with a pleasant odor. It is used as a solvent and motor oil additive, and in making other chemicals.

How do you remove bromine in Bromobenzene?

You can add the sodium hydroxide solution(NaOH). Because NaOH reacts with Br2(Bromine) and generates NaBr. NaBr is dissolved in water while bromobenzene is layered with water, then you could remove Bromine by a liquid separation. The reaction is Br2 + 2NaOH = NaBr + NaBrO + H2O.


Account for the behavior of bromobenzene toward I?

Calculate the approximate boiling point of a mixture of bromobenzene and water given different temperature with the vapor pressure of water and bromo benzene.?

The approximate boiling point of the mixture of water with bromobenzene is between 78 to 93 depending on the intensity and concentrations of mixture compositions. Using the method of steam distillation, the lighter liquid boils off first and the reading recorded. The averages between the first and the subsequent boiling points are recorded to find the common boiling point.


How to convert benzene to 4-bromonitrobenzene?

You are trying to make a para compound, so the trick here is to recognize that bromine is an ortho-para director (albeit a weak one) and nitro is a meta director. Therefore, you want to add the bromine first and then the nitro. Doing the reaction in reverse order will result in the meta product. Your reaction pathway is: 1) Benzene + Br2 + FeBr3 => Bromobenzene 2) Bromobenzene + HNO3 + H2SO4 (catalytic) => 1,2 bromonitrobenzene + 1,4 bromonitrobenzene


How do you detect benzene in the Grignard synthesis of benzoic acid?

Not sure what you mean... If you mean 'how is benzene used for the Grignard synthesis of Benzoic Acid,' then the answer is, bromobenzene (C6H5Br) is turned into phenyl Grignard (C6H5MgBr) by the addition of Magnesium in ether, and then dry ice (solid CO2) is added to the reaction mixture to make Benzoate (C6H5COO-), which is the conjugate base of Benzoic Acid. That has got to help you somehow.
