Spill a small amount of the copper(I) bromide into three test tubes and test its reaction with water, concentrated hydrochloric acid, and ammonia, respectively. Write the equations of the reactions. 

The dialkylzincs up to the dibutyl derivatives readily ignite and bum in air. The higher alkyls fume but do not always ignite [1]. During preparation of dialkylzincs, reaction of the copper—zinc alloy with mixed alkyl bromides and iodides must begin (exotherm, often after a long induction period), before too much halide mixture is added, or violent explosions may occur [2]. Reactions with water may be explosive [3]. 

Native metals. Only a relatively small number of the metals are capable of existence in nature in the uncombined condition—for example, copper, silver, gold, antimony, bismuth, and platinum. These so-called noble metals are those which exhibit such low degrees of chemical activity that they can exist in nature without entering into chemical combinations resulting from reactions with water, atmospheric oxygen, or carbon dioxide. 

Possible competitive reactions (e.g., cycloadditions on the double bond) proceed only very slowly with diazotoluene dibenzyl ether is produced by the reaction with water so that strictly anhydrous conditions are not necessary. Similarly, the presence of traces of water does not interfere with the esterification with the aid of N,N -dicyclohexyl-0-benzylisourea, which reacts with water with the production of benzyl alcohol. The reagent is synthesized from dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and benzyl alcohol with copper(I) chloride as the catalyst. The esterification proceeds according to Scheme 5.16. 

Professor Dickinson wrote all the reports, usually classified as SECRET. After I obtained SECRET security clearance, he allowed me to read some of the reports, and the professor explained to all of us the science and chemistry of what went on when a poison gas flowed through a gas mask. The gas might remain unaltered and be adsorbed by cracks in the charcoal particles, or it might undergo chemical reaction with water, added soda lime or added copper oxide in the charcoal. It was not correct to say that a charcoal did or did not stop a war gas. After a heavy enough exposure to any gas, any charcoal would eventually become saturated, and the gas would... 

A further experimental possibility would be the exothermic reaction of copper sulfate with water (see E10.2) the white copper sulfate is also closed off in the test...

AEROTEX GLYOXAL 40 (107-22-2) Flammable solid, but normally sold as an inhibited 40% solution. A highly reactive reducing agent. Violent reaction with water causes polymerization. Temperatures above boiling point of 122°F/50°C can cause polymerization. Reacts, possibly violently, with strong acids, caustics, ammonia, amines, amides, aldehydes, chlorosulfonic acid, ethylene amine, hydroxyl-containing materials. Corrosive to metals aluminum, copper, tin, steel, zinc.
