Why does 2-chlorobutane react more slowly than 2-chloro-2-methylpropane in a silver nitrate test?

∙ 13y ago
2-Chlorobutane reacts slower than 2-Bromobutane because the chlorine atom is smaller than the bromine atom, meaning the electrons are held closer to its nucleus. there is better orbital overlap between carbon and chlorine making the C-Cl bond stronger. The Br is large and has poor orbital overlap in the C-Br bond, making it weaker. Weak bonds are easier to break, therefore the C-Br bond will break more readily than the C-Cl bond.

∙ 11y agoIn the Silver Nitrate test 2-chloro-2methylpropane does not react via the SN2 mechanism. In the SN1 Mechanism it reacts instantly. This is because 2-chloro-2-methylpropane forms a tertiary carbocation as an intermediate which is favored by an SN1 mechanism whereas 2-chlorobutane forms a secondary carbocation intermediate which reacts more slowly.

∙ 13y agoBecause 2-chlorobutane's intermediate is a secondary carbocation while 2-chloro-2-methylpropane's intermediate is tertiary making it undergo the SN1 mechanism much quicker.

∙ 13y agoas you go down the halogen group, the reactivity increases due to larger electron clouds (this makes it a better leaving group). Thusly F<Cl<Br<I in terms of reactivity.

Does silver react with Oxygen to ComBust?
Silver does not combust as it is not a very reactive metal. It corrodes slowly by reacting with oxygen in the atmosphere.
What is a test for nitrate ions?
A common nitrate test is known as the brown ring test or iron ring test.It can be performed by adding FeSO4 to the solution, then slowly adding concentrated sulfuric acid and watching for a brown ring on the test tube, which will indicate the presence of the nitrate ion.[Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4 forms a brown ring in the middle of the solution produced by the reaction;the 'NO' part of this complex comes from the auto-redox of nitrate NO3- to NO (and O2) by sulfuric acid.Note that the presence of nitrite ions will interfere with this test, reacting directly as 'NO'.Do NOT use nitric acid, since it gives nitrate ion which gives a positive result anyway).
What type of compound is ammonium nitride?
ammonium nitride is a water soluble solid. it is formed (or so Ive read) by the double displacement reaction between lithium nitride and ammonium nitrate, leaving lithium nitrate and ammonium nitride. it is highly unstable and will explode violently if heated vigorously but can be made to decompose slowly if gently heated to around 100 degrees, for that reason i am guessing it would be safer to boil a dilute solution of the compound, but this may still be dangerous.
How do you convert Silver oxide back to silver?
To properly dispose of Silver Oxide :• Add 100 volumes of distilled water to 1 volume Silver Oxide powder. (glass container only)• Add common household Hydrogen Peroxide, very slowly, with lots of stirring. (glass or plastic stirrer only)• Add Hydrogen Peroxide, stirring, until all of the Black Powder has turned gray. (lots of bubbles - Oxygen)• You now have reduced Silver Oxide into harmless Silver Powder. (You may want to keep it)• NOTE : Silver Powder also breaks down the Hydrogen Peroxide, forming Oxygen bubbles.
Did granite cool slowly or quickly?
SLOWLY
How do you make silver iodide with the help of silver nitrate and potassium iodide with suitable condition?
Dissolve each of the silver nitrate and potassium iodide separately in water, then mix the two solutions slowly with stirring. Silver iodide will precipitate and can be separated by filtering it from the liquid.
What would happen if a copper coin were kept immersed in a solution of silver nitrate write the word equation also?
copper is placed above the silver in the ractivity series which indicates that copper is more reactive than silver . when a copper coin is kept immersed in a solution of siler nitrate ,silver from its solution will deposit on copper coin . copper slowly displaces silver from the silver nitrate solution and the colour of solution changes from colourless to blue due to the formation of copper nitrate . the copper coin will disappear and silver will percipate out .
How is solid ammonium nitrate obtained from the solution?
Evaporating slowly thee water ammonium nitrate is obtained.
What mineral shall you add if plants grow slowly and have pale leaves?
A Nitrate.
Why is it chemical change when a silver fork tarnishes slowly in air?
Silver sulfide is formed on the surface of the metal.
What do you put on linstock to make it burn slowly?
you make a solution of potassium nitrate and water and soak cotton rope in it and then let dry.
What happens when silver chloride is exposed to light?
The color become grey because silver chloride (AgCl) is slowly decomposed to silver and chlorine.
When silver nitrate reacts with hydrochloric acidnwhat type of reaction takes place?
It's a precipitation reaction. A yellow precipitate will form, kind of like a bunch of little tiny yellow particles. At first, it will look a little like paint, but if you let it sit, the yellow particles will slowly drift to the bottom.
Does silver react with Oxygen to ComBust?
Silver does not combust as it is not a very reactive metal. It corrodes slowly by reacting with oxygen in the atmosphere.
How do you measure quantity of salt in food?
By the process of titration. Basically, you pour about of 100ml of distilled water to a beaker through your desired quantity of food. For example, you put some chips on top of the beaker so they wouldn't leak in there, and just pour water through it so the salt, which is water soluble, gets drained to a beaker with out the chips but with the water. Then...1. Prepare 100ml of solution with salt in it (previously described as extracting salts from foods into distilled water.)2. Prepare solution of silver nitrate of concentration 0.2mol and add it into a burette.3. Pour 10ml of salty solution into a beaker and add 10 drops of potassium chromate.4. Slowly add silver nitrate onto the salty solution from the burette and measure how much silver nitrate is required to make the solution reddish.
Why does my friend see blue light when he meditates and recently see silver outlining when another friend has been having random sights of her arm sparkling silver?
now the silver is closing very slowly
What is ring test?
it is also know as brown ring test. it is a nitrate test to determine the presence of nitrate ion in the solution Testing for the presence of nitrate via wet chemistry is generally difficult compared with testing for other anions, as almost all nitrates are soluble in water. In contrast, many common ions give insoluble salts, e.g. halides precipitate with silver, and sulfates precipitate with barium.The nitrate anion is an oxidizer, and many tests for the nitrate anion are based on this property. Unfortunately, other oxidants present in the analyte may interfere and give erroneous results.Brown ring testA common nitrate test, known as the brown ring test can be performed by adding iron(II) sulfate to a solution of a nitrate, then slowly adding concentrated sulfuric acid such that the sulfuric acid forms a layer above the aqueous solution. A brown ring will form at the juction of the two layers, indicating the presence of the nitrate ion. Note that the presence of nitrite ions will interfere with this test.The overall reaction is the reductionof the nitrate ion by iron(II) which is oxidised to iron(III) and formation of a nitrosyl complex.NO3- + 3Fe2+ + 4H+→ 3Fe3+ + NO + 2H2O [Fe(H2O)6]2+ + NO → [Fe(H2O)5(NO)]2+
