The structure of 1-methoxypropane is CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-OCH₃
I will label the carbons A-D from left to right.
A B C D
CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-OCH₃
In a proton NMR spectrum, we are looking at the chemical shifts of each unique hydrogen atom, and the splitting patterns tell us how many hydrogens are attached to the adjacent carbon. Therefore, the signal from the protons on carbon A will be split by the protons on carbon B, and the signal for protons on carbon A will have a splitting pattern equal to n+1, where n = number of hydrogens on the adjacent carbon.
Therefore, for the protons on carbon A, there are two neighbouring protons and these will give a splitting patter of 3 peaks, also known as a triplet.
Protons on carbon A: 2 adjacent protons result in a triplet signal.
Protons on carbon B: 5 adjacent protons result in a sextet signal.
Protons on carbon C: 2 adjacent protons result in a triplet signal.
Protons on carbon D: 0 adjacent protons result in a singlet signal.
Answer:
B) any complex thing with properties normally associated with living things
Atoms of the same elements differing in the number of neutrons in their nuclei are known as isotopes. Thus, isotopes of an element have the same atomic number but different atomic mass number. Isotopes of an element have similar chemical properties but different physical properties.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
D) The geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere
<h2>Explanation:</h2>
During the carbon cycle, various processes move carbon from the geosphere to the atmosphere such as volcanic eruptions release carbon dioxide from molten rock beneath the earth's surface to the atmosphere. Carbon can leave the soil through soil respiration which releases CO2, or by erosion which can carry it into rivers or the ocean, where it then enters the hydrosphere. Carbon is found in the hydrosphere dissolved in ocean water and lakes and hence the cycle continues.
