question

Suggest a reason why liquid hydrogen fluoride is preferable to concentrated, aqueoushydrobromicacid in inducing propeneto react with benzene to produceisopropylbenzene.

category

chemistry

options

  1. Hydrogen fluoride reacts more selectively with propene
  2. Hydrogen fluoride provides a better solvent environment for the reaction
  3. Hydrogen fluoride is less acidic
  4. Hydrogen fluoride has lower molecular weight, which speeds up the reaction
  5. Hydrogen fluoride will give a greater yield of product
  6. Hydrogen fluoride can be recycled more easily in the process
  7. Hydrogen fluoride is a stronger oxidizing agent
  8. Hydrogen fluoride is less reactive
  9. Hydrogen fluoride is more stable
  10. Hydrogen fluoride has a higher boiling point, which aids in the reaction
