In the movie however, John Silver is portrayed as a man that wants to be redeemed and no visible evil traits are seen, just Silver’s immoral actions. This proves that although the movie, Treasure Island, is based off of Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel, slight changes can greatly impact the portrayal of a character. In this case, based on this scene, John Silvers…

Nucleophilic Substitution: Preparation of 1-Bromobutane and Alkyl Halide Classification Tests INTRODUCTION The purpose of this experiment was to demonstrate the conversion of a primary alcohol to 1-bromobutance with the Sn2 mechanism using sodium bromide and then to characterize the compound with two different alkyl halide tests. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Nucleophilic aliphatic substitution involves chemical reactions where a neutral molecule or an anion called a nucleophile substitutes a…

Nucleophilic substitutions are a fundamental class of reactions in organic chemistry. This type of reaction involves a nucleophile, or an electron rich species, attacking an electrophilic site, or an area that carries a positive or partially positive charge, in order to replace a leaving group. There are two possible mechanisms to account for the attack of the nucleophile; the first occurs in a concerted process, or in one step and the second mechanism occurs in two steps and involves a…

insoluble salt as product. An example would be; Ca(NO3)2 + H2SO4 = CaSO4 + 2HNO3 The calcium salt is insoluble. Precipitation reactions could be used in this experiment to eliminate compounds while attempting to identify others. Halides react with AgNO3 to form insoluble halides. These ions form white-yellow precipitates that enable differentiation. Ag+ + NO3 - + M+ + X- = AgX + MNO3 Precipitates…
