An atomic change..

Chemistry Level 3

The addition of sodium hydroxide to methyl iodide gives methanol and sodium iodide via the SN 2 \text{SN}_2 mechanism.

Now, instead of CH 3 I \text{CH}_3\text{I} , CF 3 I \text{CF}_3\text{I} is used under similar conditions.

Evaluate the absolute value of the difference between the molar masses of the products containing the sodium atom and the carbon atom in grams.

If you think the reaction is not feasible then enter 1 -1 as your answer.

Details and Assumptions:

  • Molar masses of Na , O 2 , F 2 , H 2 , I 2 \text{Na} , \text{O}_2 , \text{F}_2 , \text{H}_2 , \text{I}_2 and C \text{C} are 23 , 32 , 38 , 2 , 254 23 , 32, 38 , 2 , 254 and 12 , 12, respectively.


The answer is 96.
