Interpretation:
The detailed mechanism for the given reaction is to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
Reaction mechanism is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions.
Reaction sequences involve conversion of one functional group to another, which may also require addition or loss of carbon from the reactant.
These sequences involve a number of steps carried out by different reagents. Sometimes different reagents give the same products.
Electrophiles are electron-deficient species, which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles, which accept electron pair.
Nucleophiles are electron-rich species, which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles, which donate electron pair.
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a functional group is substituted by any other functional group is called substitution reaction.
Nucleophilic substitution reaction is a reaction in which an electron-rich nucleophile attacks the positive or partial positive charge of an atom or a group of atoms to replace a leaving group.

The involvement of nearby nucleophile substituent to the reaction center in the substitution process is known as neighboring group participation.
Such participation results in an increase of

- There are three different dichloroethylenes (molecular for-mula C₂H₂Cl₂), which we can designate X, Y, and Z. CompoundX has no dipole moment, but compound Z does. Compounds Xand Z each combine with hydrogen to give the same product:C₂H₂Cl₂ (X or Z) +H₂→ClCH2-CH2Cl What are the structures of X, Y, and Z?

It is used to make cosmetics, ointments, soaps, and candles and is found in animal tissue as part of many saturated fats. In fact, when you eat meat, you are ingesting some fats containing stearic acid. Determine the AHrxn for this combustion given the following information: AH of stearic acid = -948 kJ/mol, AHf of CO, = -394 kJ/mol, AHf of water = -242 kJ/mol. Calculate the heat (q) released in kJ when 261.8 g of stearic acid reacts with 903.9 g of oxygen. Enter a positive number to 0 decimal place.arrow_forward
