Products of the reaction between bromine and toluene?

The reaction between bromine and toluene can result in the substitution of a hydrogen atom on the toluene ring with a bromine atom, forming bromotoluene. Different isomers of bromotoluene can be produced depending on the position of the bromine atom on the toluene ring.


Why does HCl gas not conduct electricity when dissolved in toluene?

HCl gas does not conduct electricity when dissolved in toluene because toluene is a nonpolar solvent and does not dissociate the HCl into free ions. In order for a substance to conduct electricity in solution, it needs to be in the form of ions that can move and carry an electric charge. In this case, the HCl remains as molecules in toluene and does not dissociate into ions.


Are sodium hydroxide solution is dissolve in tolune?

Sodium hydroxide is not soluble in toluene. Toluene is a nonpolar solvent, while sodium hydroxide is an ionic compound that is highly soluble in water but not in nonpolar solvents like toluene.


Is ethyl acetate more polar than toluene?

Yes, ethyl acetate is more polar than toluene.


What is more volatile benzene or toluene?

Yes. The methyl group on toluene causes a shift in electron density making it polar. Benzene is non-polar and has uniform distribution of charge density and has no dipole moment. Toluene, though, would not be more polar than a phenol because the more electronegative oxygen atom (in the alcohol) pulls more electron density from the ring causing a larger dipole moment (separation of charge).

What happens when excess Chlorine is passed through boiling toluene?

When excess chlorine is passed through boiling toluene, chlorination of the toluene molecule can occur. This reaction can lead to the introduction of chlorine atoms into the benzene ring of toluene, resulting in the formation of chlorinated derivatives of toluene. These derivatives can have different properties and reactivity compared to the original toluene molecule.
