Hydrocarbons in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms are replaced by chlorine and fluorine?

chlorofluorocarbons


What is chlorofluorocarbon?

A hydrocarbon with all the hydrogen atoms replaced with either chlorine atoms or fluorine atoms. They cannot be all chlorine or all fluorine atoms, but must be some mixture.


What is the single replacement reaction for potassium iodide chlorine?

I is replaced by Cl.So KCl and I2 is formed.


What is replacement in chemistry?

Replacement (or displacement) in Chemistry is when a molecule or atom is replaced by a more reactive molecule or atom, within a compound. This is most commonly seen in the halogens (group 7 elements).For example, if you react potassium chloride with fluorine, you get potassium fluoride and chlorine:KCl + F --> KF + ClFluorine is more reactive than chlorine, and so it displaces/replaces chlorine in the potassium compound.B


During a reaction the OH group of an alcohol is replaced by a chlorine atom. Which type of reaction occurred?

An alkyl halide is obtained.


What is the type of reaction of this 2 NaCl plus F2 equals 2NaF plus Cl2?

This would be an oxidation-reduction reaction (or a single replacement reaction). On the left side of the equation, chlorine (Cl) has a negative charge, because it is bonded to sodium (Na). After it goes through the reaction, it is replaced by fluorine (F), making it Cl2 on the product side. As a atom that is not bonded, its charge is 0. The charge on Cl went from -1 to 0, so it is oxidized. The other anion, F, is reduced (the charge decreases from 0 to -1.


Is there a reaction between bromine and sodium chloride?

This reaction would be called a single replacement reaction because only one parts of the compound (NaBr) is being replaced. The anion (negatively charged part of the compound) is replaced since Fluorine has a charge of -1. Sodium has a charge of +1 and Bromine has a charge of -1, so Bromine is replaced by Fluorine. I have balanced the equation below to illustrate the reaction.F2 + 2 NaBr -> 2 NaF + Br2


What is the Lewis structure for CHF2Cl?

It is the same as metyhane. Three of the hydrogens in methane are replaced by 2 x fluorine and 1 x chlorine.


In a single displacement reaction one element replaces another element in a compound?

A single-displacement reaction, also named single-replacement reaction, is a type of oxidation-reduction chemical reaction when an element or ion moves out of one compound and into another-that is, one element is replaced by another in a compound.


What type of reaction is aluminum bromide and chlorine gas react to form aluminum chloride and bromine gas?

Simple, only one element is being replaced or "moved" so it's single replacement. It's always best to review notes before chemistry tests.


How can the activity series of element help you in dealing with a single replacement reaction?

in a single dispacement reaction, the lower metals are replaced by the upper metals in the metal activity series. for ex: copper sulphate + iron ----- iron sulphate + copper (copper is replaced by iron in this chemical reaction)


How does a chlorine atom and a chlorine ion differ?

First of all fluoride and fluorine ("u" in the spelling) are two different things.A fluoride ion is derived from fluorine by stripping one electron from a fluorine molecule (or atom).Looks like your curious about fluoridation of water. Don't get lost in the unfounded science.Fluoride also come in two forms. Organic and inorganic. Inorganic is not harmful to humansand that is what is in toothpaste (and other oral products) and in some water supplies.Organic fluoride is what is in poisons and pesticides. Inorganic fluoride is being replaced with better agents but that's another story.
