Chapter 22, Problem 48QAP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The following reaction should be classified as addition, substitution, elimination, or condensation:

${\text{PCl}}_3\text{(g)}\text{+}{\text{Cl}}_{\text{2}}\text{(g)}\to {\text{PCl}}_{\text{5}}\text{(g)}$

Concept introduction:

The reaction in which one molecule combines with another to form a larger molecule and no other product is said to be an addition reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The following reaction should be classified as addition, substitution, elimination, or condensation:

${\text{C}}_3{\text{H}}_7\text{OH(l)}\to {\text{C}}_3{\text{H}}_6{\text{(g)+H}}_2\text{O(l)}$

Concept introduction:

The reaction in which two substituents are removed from one molecule is said to be an elimination reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The following reaction should be classified as addition, substitution, elimination, or condensation:

${\text{CH}}_3\text{OH(l)}+{\text{C}}_2{\text{H}}_5\text{OH(l)}\to {\text{CH}}_3{\text{-O-C}}_2{\text{H}}_5{\text{(l)+H}}_2\text{O(l)}$

Concept introduction:

The reaction in which two molecules combine with each other resulting in the formation of large molecule and a small molecule is said to be a condensation reaction.
