Chapter 13, Problem 1PP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The product formed after reaction of cyclohexane in the presence of NBS and R2O2 is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

NBS is an oxidizing agent. The most common use of NBS is allylic bromination.

Chemical reaction in the presence of a free radical is called as free radical reaction.

Molecules that have one unpaired electron are called free radicals.

R2O2 is used for chain initiation. The bond of oxygen–oxygen atom in R2O2 is weak, and breaks easily. Each oxygen gets single electron. Free radicals are formed.

The reaction in the presence of NBS and R2O2 is a free radical substitution reaction. A chemical reaction in the presence of a free radical is called as free radical reaction. Molecules that have one unpaired electron are called as free radicals. NBS is an oxidizing agent. It provides low concentration of bromine. The most common use of NBS is allylic bromination.

Allylic bromination is a free radical substitution reaction in which removal of hydrogen atom on carbon adjacent to a double bond with bromine.

Free radical substitution reaction takes place in the presence of NBS and R2O2.

QUESTION Liquid A is known to have a lower viscosity and lower surface tension than Liquid B. Use these facts to predict the result of each experiment in the table below, if you can. experiment Liquid A and Liquid B are each pumped through tubes with an inside diameter of 27.0 mm, and the pressures PA and PB needed to produce a steady flow of 2.4 mL/s are measured. 25.0 mL of Liquid A are poured into a beaker, and 25.0 mL of Liquid B are poured into an identical beaker. Stirrers in each beaker are connected to motors, and the forces FA and FB needed to stir each liquid at a constant rate are measured. predicted outcome OPA will be greater than PB OPA will be less than PB OPA will be equal to PB It's impossible to predict whether PA or PB will be greater without more information.…
