What is alkyle?
Alkylation is a chemical process involving carbon atoms. In refineries, this is done to add octane to gasoline by introducing hydrocarbons to the fuel.
Why are alkyl halides insoluble in water?
Alkyl halides are insoluble in water though they are more polar than alkanes because they cannot form hydrogen bond with water but are soluble in other organic solvents as are the corresponding alkanes
Why is sodium chloride soluble in water but not in alcohol?
when u put sodium chloride in water it ionizes to Na+ and Cl- which interact in water with OH- and H+ respectively but since alcohol which is ROH (R is for alkyl group) as a solvent is slightly more hydrophobic than water(because of presence of alkyl group) can not do so.
Would you Compare the density of alkyl halides to the density of water?
Yes. That's what specific gravity is.
What are other examples of alkyl halide?
an example of Alkyl halides is R-X ( x represents any halogen) C2F4 is Teflon it is an example of Alkyl Halides
What is the chemical formula of alkyl benzene?
it is C6H5-R , R = any alkyl group.
Which is the contaminant soap alkyl benzene sulfonate or linear alkyl sulfonate?
Depending on the desired definition of the word "contaminant" Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate is more likely the answer. Linear Alkyl Sulfonates are far more readily biodegraded than Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate due to their relative chemical structures. Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate can cause issues in waterways such as eutrophication, which in turn can lead to algal blooms.
What is the equation of Swarts reaction?
the synthesis of alkyl fluorides by heating an alkyl chloride or alkyl bromide in the presence of a metallic fluoride like AgF, Hg2F2, CoF2 or SbF2.
Give an explanation for the order of reactivity observed for the three saturated alkyl halides with ag plus?
Alkyl halides are the most reactive in the third stage of saturation when using silver nitrate as the reactant. However, if water is used as the solvent the silver nitrate will cause the alkyl halide to ionize. If the alkyl halide is in stage 1 or 2, a molecular rearrangement may happen prior to the process being complete; this is not the case with stage 3 saturation.
What is an alkyl phosphate?
An alkyl phosphate is any ester derived from an aliphatic alcohol and phosphoric acid.
How does an alkyl group differ from its parent alkane?
When one hydrogen is removed from an alkane it forms alkyl group
Alcohol is more volatile than water because?
due to larger size of alkyl group alcohols are less polar than water and hydrogen bonding is not so strong as in water....
