Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of Cl2 with benzene to make para-dichlorobenzene in the presence of FeCl3 as a catalyst. Is this an addition or a substitution reaction?
The zinc(II) ion behaves as a Lewis acid. It is found in an enzyme called carboxypeptidase A. This enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of C-terminal peptide bonds of proteins. The zinc ion will accept the lone pair of electrons on the oxygen in the peptide linkage. Explain why this Lewis acid behavior would make the carbon atom more susceptible to reaction.
Write the net ionic equation for the equilibrium that is established when calcium cyanide is dissolved in water.
