Help with question 9
Base your answer to the question on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry. A thiol is very similar to an alcohol. but a thiol bas a sulfur atom instead of an oxygen atom in the functional group. The equation below represents a reaction of methanethiol and iodine, producing dimethyl disulfide and hydrogen iodide. H. H S-H + 1, →H-Ċ-s-s-ċ-H + 2HI H. Methanethiol Dimethyl disulfide 7. Explain, in terms of electron configuration, why sulfur atoms and oxygen atoms form compounds with similar molecular structures. 8. Identify the polarity of an H-I bond and the polarity of an S-S bond. 9. State the number of electrons shared between the sulfur atoms in the dimethyl disulfide.
