Chapter 15, Problem 15.84CQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To balance the equation for the reaction that takes place in basic solution.

  CN-(aq) + IO3-(aq)CNO-(aq) + I-(aq)

Concept introduction:

Here are the rules to balance redox reactions in basic medium:

Determine the oxidation numbers of the elements and write the oxidation and reduction half equation.

Balance the atoms of elements other than O and H. Use H2O to balance O, H+ to balance H, electrons to balance the charges. Equalize the number of electrons on both the half reactions and then add the half reactions.

Add OH- to neutralize the excess protons since this is a basic medium. Add OH- to both side of the equation to balance it.

1. Answer the questions about the following reaction: (a) Draw in the arrows that can be used make this reaction occur and draw in the product of substitution in this reaction. Be sure to include any relevant stereochemistry in the product structure. + SK F Br + (b) In which solvent would this reaction proceed the fastest (Circle one) Methanol Acetone (c) Imagine that you are working for a chemical company and it was your job to perform a similar reaction to the one above, with the exception of the S atom in this reaction being replaced by an O atom. During the reaction, you observe the formation of three separate molecules instead of the single molecule obtained above. What is the likeliest other products that are formed? Draw them in the box provided.
3. For the reactions below, draw the arrows corresponding to the transformations and draw in the boxes the reactants or products as indicated. Note: Part A should have arrows drawn going from the reactants to the middle structure and the arrows on the middle structure that would yield the final structure. For part B, you will need to draw in the reactant before being able to draw the arrows corresponding to product formation. A. B. Rearrangement ΘΗ
2. Draw the arrows required to make the following reactions occur. Please ensure your arrows point from exactly where you want to exactly where you want. If it is unclear from where arrows start or where they end, only partial credit will be given. Note: You may need to draw in lone pairs before drawing the arrows. A. B. H-Br 人 C Θ CI H Cl Θ + Br O
