In this lab, you are to carry out the formation of a Grignard reagent from 1-bromo-benzene andits subsequent reaction with solid carbon dioxide (CO2) followed by acidic workup (using HCl asthe acid). Write the overall reaction and product(s) that you expect.

(A). C6H5Br + Mg(in ether) > C6H5MgBr.

(B). C6H5MgBr + O = C = O > C6H5-COO^- Mg^+ Br.

(C). C6H5-COO^- Mg^+ Br + HCl > C6H5-COOH + Mg^+Br(OH).

PRODUCTS=> C6H5-COOH and Mg^+Br(OH).

Explanation:

A Grignard reagent is a reagent that/which is an organometallic compound that is R -Mg- X. The R = alkyl, vinyl or allyl and the X = halogens.

It must be noted that an important reaction of Grignard reagent is its reaction with compounds containing the Carbonyl that is -CO functional group and this kind of Reaction is known as a Grignard Reaction.

So, in this question we are told that;

=> "1-bromo-benzene andits subsequent reaction with solid carbon dioxide (CO2) followed by acidic workup (using HCl asthe acid). "

Thus;

(A). C6H5Br + Mg(in ether) > C6H5MgBr.

(B). C6H5MgBr + O = C = O > C6H5-COO^- Mg^+ Br.

(C). C6H5-COO^- Mg^+ Br + HCl > C6H5-COOH + Mg^+Br(OH).

here we have to get the change of moles on decrease the volume of the reaction in gas phase.

the   per the given options it will decrease by (d) 11-50%

we know, on decreasing the volume of the gas phase reaction the reaction moves to the product side.

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:                   1 - α               α               α           = 1 + α

(concentration = moles/volume, as volume is 1 l)

(where α is the degree of dissociation)

now the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

=  

or,

or,   = (at v = 1l)

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:               (1 - α)/0.5           α/0.5         α/0.5       = (1 + α)/0.5

thus, the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

or,  

=  

so, the change of 1 : 1/0.5

or, 1: 2

thus it will decrease by 50%.

or, as per the given options it will decrease by 11-50%

in chemistry, a solution’s concentration is how much of a dissolvable substance, known as a solute, is mixed with another substance, called the solvent. the standard formula is c = m/v, where c is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute dissolved, and v is the total volume
