Why are stannic halides rendered more inert by complexation?

The complexing "agent" changes the level of ionisation of the stannic halide. This makes it less likely to react with another ionic compound. The stannic halide itself also alters the pull/push of radicals (in this case P) attached to the carbon rings (Ph) in the complex as well.


Why carbonyl compounds will not react with hydrogen halides?

Carbonyl compounds do not typically react with hydrogen halides because the carbonyl carbon is already bonded to an oxygen atom, which gives a partial positive charge to the carbon atom. This makes the carbon atom less susceptible to nucleophilic attack by the hydrogen halide. Additionally, the oxygen atom acts as a stabilizing group and hinders the reaction with the hydrogen halide.


For detection of foregin element why is sodium fusion carried out?

oraganic compound are covalent in nature and they do not react with inorganic reagents so that they should be converted into ionic compounds .since sodium is highly reactive and electropositive metal ,it form ionic compound .NA+C+N...................NaCN(SODIUM CYNIDE)2Na+s......................Na2sNa+x.........................Nax


How can you prepare 2 methoxay propane from William synthesis reaction?

You can start with 2- propanol, react it with sodium so that you get the alkoxide ion of the two reactant then follow it with an alkylhalide so that a nucleophilic substitution reaction can take place to form 2-methoxypropane. An alkylhalide to be used here be an alkyl of any of the halogen group or aklylsulfonate/aklylsulfate can be used also instead of alkylhalide


How do group 7 halogens react with metals?

Group 1 metals react with halogens through electron configuration. Group 1 (Alkali) metals have one electron in their outer shell.

What is hda?

HDA is a process through which the formation of alkyl halide takes place........................................ In which one hydroen atom or u can say that alkyl group like(CH3,C2H5.C3H7......CnHn-1)react with any halogen atom like( F,Cl,Br I)react and give salt or u can say alkyl halide ............................................THANK YOU!


Is Williamson's synthesis an example of nucleophilic substitution rxn?

Williamson's synthesis an example of nucleophilic substitution rxn, in this rxn an alkyl halide is allowed to react with a Na alkokide.


Will IPA react with HCL?

Not likely as ipa is a secondary alcohol and will not form as stable a carbocation as tertiary alcohols such as tert-butyl alcohol in this SN1 first order nucleophilic substitution reaction. However, ZnCl2 would facilitate the formation of the carbocation with ipa and the nucleophile (Cl-) could then attack with the subsequent formation of the alkyl halide.


Synthesis of hexanal by use acetylene and alkyl halide?

Use sodium amide to deprotonate acetylene and react it with iodoethane (or equivilent) two times to form 3-hexyne. Use sodium amide again to "move" the triple bond to a terminal position (to make 1-hexyne). Reprotonate with dilute HCl. Now simply do a hydrobroation-oxydation (BH3*THF followed by H2O2 and NaOH(aq)) to yield hexanal.


What is friedal craft reaction?

How do the Halide ions react with dilute Nitric acid. I have a chemistry test tomorrow and I need to know how the halide ions react with Nitric acid after Silver Nitrate and ammonia have been added?

The Niritric acid is used to remove any ion without will contaminate the reaction. for example if there is any carbonate (CO3) then the nitric acid will react with it: 2 HNO3 (aq) & (CO3)-2 (aq) --> CO2 (g) & H2O (l) & 2 (NO3)- (aq)


Explain the formation of two layers in the Lucas test?

Since alkyl halides are not soluble in water, two layers form if an alcohol was present to react with the ZnCl2:HCl mixture.


Is chlorine more reactive than neon?

Yes, Neon is a noble gas (its outer shell of electrons is full) and does not react with anything, while Chlorine is a halide and is very reactive.
