Calculate the concentration of atmospheric carbon compounds in ppbv using the data in the table below:
Compound Concentration (µg/m3)
Toluene 980
m,p-Xylene 910
o-Xylene 510
Benzene 370
Ethylbenzene 310
1,3,5-Trimethylbenzene 230
1-Ethyl-4-methylbenzene 200
Hexane 150
Heptane 130
1-Erthyl-2-methylbenzene 120
Propene reacts with hydrogen bromide (HBr) at room temperature to produce,
1-bromopropane and 2-bromopropane.
H2C=CHCH3 + HBr → CH2(Br)CH2CH3 + CH3CH(Br)CH3
Draw out the reaction mechanism of the reaction between propene and hydrogen bromide to produce 2-bromopropane. Use curly arrows to show the movement of electrons. The description should be detailed and must include the type of bond fission that takes place. You may sketch and insert suitable diagrams to aid your description if you wish.
Referring to the above mechanism, explain why two products are formed in the reaction between propene and hydrogen bromide?

- Free radical halogenation is used to replace one or more hydrogens on an alkane with one or more halogens (either chlorine or bromine). It is a substitution reaction. A student performs a free radical bromination on 3-methyl-pentane (5.88 g) to create the desired product of 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane. The product mix, which hopefully contains almost all 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane, is cleaned up by passing it through a gas chromoatograph, which separates out the 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane from any undesired products made during the reaction (undesired products are created frequently in free radical halogenation).
