May 23, 2024 · CH3CH2O is the chemical formula for ethyl methyl ether, which is an organic compound that is also known as methoxyethane. It is a colorless liquid with a sweet odor, commonly used as a solvent or ...

May 16, 2016 · There are a number of reasons why the reaction you suggest in much less favourable than the deprotonation. Firstly, hydride is a terrible nucleophile because its 1s orbital is too small to effectively overlap with anything except hydr

Apr 24, 2016 · $$\ce{CH3CH2OH + H2O <<=> CH3CH2O- + H3O+}$$ Why does this reaction occur, because the alkoxide ion is a really strong base right? Why should its conjugate acid give off a $\ce{H+}$ to water, if it was a strong base let's say $\ce{NaOH}$ it would make sense to me, because the $\ce{OH-}$ is probably a stronger base then the alkoxide ion.

May 30, 2024 · There are 9 atoms in CH3CH2OH: 2 carbon atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen atom.

Jun 29, 2024 · What is the common name for chlorophenols? The common name for chlorophenols is wood preservatives.

Aug 16, 2021 · When the donor atom is same, a general rule applies: nucleophilicity parallels basicity. Thus, comparing the basic strength of methoxide and hydroxide, it is observed that methoxide is a stronger base than hydroxide (as it the conjugate base of a weaker acid i.e. methanol when compared to water).

Apr 27, 2024 · $\ce{CH3CH2O-}$ has maximum charge density. $\ce{CH3COO-}$ will have more charge density than $\ce{CH3CH2S-}$ but less than $\ce{CH3CH2O-}$ as it is resonance stabilised. Therefore order of nucleophilicity should be $\pu{(1>3>2)}$. But in the answer key, $\pu{(1>2>3)}$ is the right answer.

Mar 1, 2018 · Ethanol donate protons to the strong bases forming alkoxide ion. Ethoxide ion is a strong conjugate base which shows that it is a weak acid.

Sep 17, 2016 · The reaction of methanol and ethanol are based on their $\mathrm{p}K_\mathrm{a}$ values in the reaction. Fist consider the reaction of methanol with water along with their $\mathrm{p}K_\mathrm{a}$ values.
