Ethyl trichloroacetate is significantly more reactive toward hydrolysis than ethyl acetate. Explain this observation. The three chlorine atoms withdraw electron density via induction. This effect renders the carbonyl group less electrophilic. The three chlorine atoms add electron density via induction. This effect renders the carbonyl group less electrophilic. The three chlorine atoms withdraw electron density via induction. This effect renders the carbonyl group more electrophilic. The three chlorine atoms add electron density via induction. This effect renders the carbonyl group more electrophilic.

The three chlorine atoms withdraw electron density via induction. This effect renders the carbonyl group more electrophilic.

Explanation:

Ethyl trichloroacetate(C4H5Cl3O2) is significantly more reactive towards hydrolysis than ethyl acetate. This is because the three chlorine atoms withdraw electron density via induction and renders the carbonyl group C=O more electrophlic(tendency to attract more electrons).

Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction which involves water molecules being added to a substance.

The increased electrophilic feature enhances its reaction with water.

8 m/s because for him to get the same amount of energy as ray is putting out, bobby, who weighs half as much as ray, needs to run twice as fast.

sure im new too!
