Chapter 6, Problem 43P

When the alkyl bromides (listed here) were subjected to hydrolysis in a mixture of ethanol and water ( 80 % E t O H / 20 % H 2 O ) at 55°C, the rates of the reaction showed the following order:

( C H 3 ) 3 C B r > C H 3 B r > C H 3 C H 2 B r > ( C H 3 ) 2 C H B r

Provide an explanation for this order of reactivity.

3. Titanium(III) chloride can be used to catalyze the polymerization of ethylene. It is prepared by hydrogen reduction of Titanium(IV) chloride. Reaction of hydrogen gas with titanium(IV) chloride gas produces solid titanium(III) chloride and hydrogen chloride gas. (a) Write a BALANCED chemical reaction for the preparation of titanium(III) chloride (b) A 250 L reaction vessel at 325°C is filled with hydrogen gas to a pressure of 1.3 atm. Titanium(IV) chloride is then added to bring the total pressure to 3.00 atm. How many grams of titanium(III) chloride will be produced after completion of the reaction? (c) What will be the pressure of the resulting hydrogen chloride gas that is also produced?
