Consider the following mechanism for the reaction between t-butyl chloride and water: (CH_3)_3 CCl(aq) rightarrow (CH_3)_3 C^+ (aq) + Cl^- (aq) (CH_3)_3 C^+ (aq) + H_2O(l) rightarrow (CH_3)_3 CHOH^+ (aq) (CH_3)_3 CHOH^+ (aq) + H_2O(l) rightarrow (CH_3)_3 COH(aq) + H_3 O^+ (aq) Write the chemical equation of the overall reaction: Are there any intermediates in this mechanism? yes no If there are intermediates, write down their chemical formulas. Put a comma between each chemical formula, if there's more than one.

Explanation:

CH_3)_3 CCl(aq) --> (CH_3)_3 C^+ (aq) + Cl^- (aq)

(CH_3)_3 C^+ (aq) + H_2O(l) --> (CH_3)_3 CHOH^+ (aq)

(CH_3)_3 CHOH^+ (aq) + H_2O(l) --> (CH_3)_3 COH(aq) + H_3 O^+(aq)

Write the chemical equation of the overall reaction

CH_3)_3 CCl(aq) + 2H_2O(l) --> (CH_3)_3 COH(aq) + H_3 O^+(aq)  +  Cl^- (aq)

Are there any intermediates in this mechanism?

Yes

Intermediates; (CH_3)_3 C^+(aq), (CH_3)_3 CHOH^+ (aq)

answer: -

reaction:

na + cl ⇌ nacl

balanced chemical equation:

na + 2cl ⇌ nacl2

sodium + clorine goes to form sodium chloride (table salt).

the product is nacl2.

and the reactants are na and cl.

⇌(double head arrow) means reversible reaction).
