Chapter 18.1, Problem 1P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The expected relative rate of trans alkene has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Relative rate:

It is also known as effective molarity. It is the concentration of reactant needed in an intermolecular reaction so that the rate gets equal to that of intramolecular reaction.

The rate enhanced by the catalyst can be calculated by,

  Relativerate=first-orderrateconstantsecond-orderrateconstant

The rate law for addition of Br2 to an alkenes is first order in Br2 and first order in the alkene. Does this information suggest that the mechanism of addition of Br2 to an alkene proceeds in the same matter as for addition of HBr? Explain.
Using reactions, mechanisms, potential energy diagrams, labels, complete sentences, and the associated concepts, explain the following reaction rate trend for the hydrochlorination of alkenes (the addition of HCI). You may assume: 1) the alkenes are all the same higher energy; and, 2) the chloroalkane products are all the same energy; and, 3) the chloroalkane products are lower in energy than the starting alkenes (AGºrx is negative for each reaction).
Question:In a chemical reaction, a compound X undergoes a transformation to form compound Y. The reaction is carried out at constant temperature and pressure. Compound Y is observed to have a higher energy content than compound X. Explain this phenomenon based on the principles of thermodynamics.
