Explanation:

The reaction with HBr is a nucleofilic adition with the following steps:

Step 1: Carbocation formation
Step 2: Product formation (addition of Br-)

In the first step, the more sustituted the carbocation is the more stable. Meaning this that the most stable will be a terciary C (such as in ter buthene), the less stable the primary C (ethene for example) and between them, the secondary C (propene).

Analizing that and knowing that this mechanism of reaction follows the rule of Markovnikov, you can determine the reaction speed of an alkene.

Also the more resonance intermediates it has, the slower the reacrion is.

The first step in the reaction is the double bond of the Alkene going after the H of HBr. This protonates the Alkene via Markovnikov's rule, and forms a carbocation. The stability of this carbocation dictates the rate of the reaction.

<span>So to solve your problem, protonate all your Alkenes following Markovnikov's rule, and then compare the relative stability of your resulting carbocations. Tertiary is more stable than secondary, so an Alkene that produces a tertiary carbocation reacts faster than an Alkene that produces a secondary carbocation.

Answer:

i believe this is a chemical or physical question? well your answer to that is no the element does not change because the gold is still gold it is still physical because you have just cut it into piece it is still gold

describe the energy inputs and outputs for the campfire. Use the law of conservation of energy to construct a valid qualitative

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The essence including its particular subject is outlined in the following portion mostly on clarification.

Explanation:

The energy throughout the campfire comes from either the wood's latent chemical energy until it has been burned to steam up and launch up across the campfire. The electricity generation for something like a campfire seems to be in the context including its potential chemical energy which is contained throughout the firewood used only to inflame the situation.
The energy output seems to be in the different types of heat energy radiating across the campfire, laser light generated off by the blaze, and perhaps a little number of electrical waves, registered throughout the firewood cracking whilst they combust throughout the blaze.

and,

chemical energy ⇒ heat energy + light energy + sound energy

Why are weight and mass used synonymously on Earth?

RUDIKE [14]

Actually mass and weight are two different things but most people did not understand the difference between them. And they are used synonymously on the earth. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter and weight is the measure of how the force of gravity acts on the mass that is Weight = mass x force of gravity. And they are also directly proportional to each other that is also the reason both terms are used synonymously.

A chemist wants to extract copper metal from copper chloride solution. The chemist places 1.50 grams of aluminum foil in a solut

Lisa [10]

Answer: d. More than 6.5 grams of copper (II) is formed, and some copper chloride is left in the reaction mixture.

Explanation: $2Al+3CuCl_2\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3Cu$

As can be seen from the chemical equation, 2 moles of aluminium react with 3 moles of copper chloride.

According to mole concept, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molar mass.

Aluminium is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and copper chloride is the excess reagent as (14-7.5)=6.5 g is left as such.

Thus 54 g of of aluminium react with 270 g of copper chloride.

1.50 g of aluminium react with= $\frac{270}{54}\times 1.50=7.5 g$ of copper chloride.

3 moles of copper chloride gives 3 moles of copper.

7.5 g of copper chloride gives 7.5 g of copper.
