What is meant by substitution reactions? |
|
Answer» When a higher energy compound displace less energy compound is called displacement reaction.for exampleCuSO4 +Fe - FeSo4+CuBecause iron is note reactive than copper .therefore concentration of copper is decreases and iron sulphate is produce Substitution reaction (also known as single displacement reaction or single substitution reaction) is a reaction in which the functional group of one chemical compound is substituted by another group or it is reaction which involves the replacement of one atom or an molecule of a compound with another atom or molecule. They are of prime importance in organic chemistry.For example: when CH3Cl is reacted with the hydroxyl ion (OH-), it will lead to the formation of the original molecule called as methanol with that hydroxyl ion. The following reaction is as shown below-CH3Cl + (−OH)--->CH3OH( methanol) + Cl- |
