Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical similarities of each process are to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The chemical reaction in which oxidation process and reduction process take place simultaneously, is called a redox reaction.

Oxidation is the addition of an electronegative element or the removal of an electropositive element in a chemical reaction.

Reduction is the addition of an electropositive element or the removal of an electronegative element in a chemical reaction.

Q9. The insecticide DDT (in the box below) is useful in controlling mosquito populations and has low toxicity to humans, but is dangerous to birds and fish. Hoping to alleviate the dangers, little Johnny Whizbang, an aspiring chemist, proposes a new version of DDT ("Bromo-DDT") and shows his synthesis to his boss. Will Johnny Whizbang's synthesis work? Or will he be fired? Assume there is an excess of bromine and polybrominated products can be separated. Explain why. CH3 Br2, light CBR3 ok-ok Br Br Br Br CI "Bromo-DDT" CCl 3 DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) CI
Differentiate the terms Monotectic, Eutectic, Eutectoid, Peritectic, Peritectoid.
Q5. Predict the organic product(s) for the following transformations. If no reaction will take place (or the reaction is not synthetically useful), write "N.R.". Determine what type of transition state is present for each reaction (think Hammond Postulate). I Br₂ CH3 F2, light CH3 Heat CH3 F₂ Heat Br2, light 12, light CH3 Cl2, light
