A river has different populations of lampreys and paddlefish. The paddlefish feed on zooplankton, while the lampreys feed on the

paddlefish. Humans living around the river hunt the paddlefish. What will happen to the ecosystem if the paddlefish are hunted in excess?

The answer is: The population of paddlefish will decrease, while the population of zooplankton will increase.

The paddlerfish is predator to zooplankton. An decrease in predator (in this example the paddlerfish) will increase the number and genetic variation in a population of zooplankton.

An decrease of food (in this example the paddlerfish) will decrease population of the lampreys.

Hman activity (hunting) decrease population of the paddlerfish.

A couple of things will happen. One, the paddlefish may be hunted into nonexistent numbers, meaning that that amount of zooplankton would increase. Two, due to the decreased amount of the paddlefish, the lampreys would moves elsewhere or begin to feed on something else.

identify the reagents you would use to convert each of the following compounds into pentanoic acid: (a) 1-pentene (b) 1-bromobut
Morgarella [4.7K]

a)BH3.THF is used to convert 1-pentane to pentanoic acid and b)NaCN is used to convert Bromobutane to pentanoic acid.

a) The conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid using BH3, also known as hydroboration-oxidation, is a two-step reaction involving the reaction of 1-pentane with borane (BH3), followed by oxidation of the resulting 1-pentylborane with hydrogen peroxide or other oxidizing agents.

In the first step, 1-pentane reacts with borane (BH3) to form 1-pentylborane, through a process known as hydroboration. This reaction is catalyzed by a Lewis acid, such as aluminum chloride, and proceeds via a hydride transfer from the borane to the 1-pentane.

In the second step, the 1-pentylborane is oxidized to pentanoic acid using hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) or other suitable oxidizing agents. The oxidation is catalyzed by an acid, such as hydrochloric acid (HCl), and proceeds via a proton transfer from the 1-pentylborane to the hydrogen peroxide. The end result is the conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid.

The overall chemical reaction for the conversion of 1-pentane to pentanoic acid using borane (BH₃) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is as follows:

1-pentane + BH₃ + H₂O₂ → pentanoic acid + H₂O + BH₂

b)The conversion of 1-Bromo butane to pentanoic acid using sodium cyanide (NaCN) proceeds via a nucleophilic substitution reaction. The reaction mechanism involves the following steps:

1. Attack of the nucleophile, NaCN, on the carbon atom of 1-Bromo butane to form a tetrahedral intermediate.

2. Loss of a proton from the tetrahedral intermediate to form a carbanion.

3. Protonation of the carbanion by water (or another proton source) to form pentanoic acid.

The overall reaction can be represented as follows:

1-Bromo butane + NaCN → Pentanoic Acid + NaBr
