In a later chapter, we will learn that an acetylide ion (formed by treatment of acetylene with a strong base) can serve as a nucleophile in an sn2 reaction: this reaction provides a useful method for making a variety of substituted alkynes. determine whether this process can be used to make the following alkyne. explain your answer.

Chlorine and water react to form hydrogen chloride and oxygen, like this: 2cl2 (g) + 2h2o (g) → 4hcl (g) + o2 (g) also, a chemist finds that at a certain temperature the equilibrium mixture of chlorine, water, hydrogen chloride, and oxygen has the following composition: compound concentration at equilibrium cl2 0.55m h2o 0.57m hcl 0.53m o2 0.34m calculate the value of the equilibrium constant kc for this reaction. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
