Where do the elements heavier than hydrogen and helium come from?

Chemistry

The elements heavier than hydrogen and helium were produced inside stars.
During most of a star's lifetime, hydrogen nuclei fuse together to form helium nuclei.As the star runs out of hydrogen, other elements. Heavier elements than hydrogen and helium are form. Elements heavier than iron are formed in supernovas.

What are possible reasons for a percent yield that is under 100%
matrenka [14]

Answer:

              Percentage Yield is given as,

                 %age Yield  =  Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

This shows that the %age yield is directly depending upon the actual yield. And most of the time the percentage yield is less than 100 % because of the following factors.

Impure Starting Materials:

                                           If the starting materials (reactants) are not pure then reaction will not completely form the desired product. Different by products will form which will decrease the %age yield.

Incomplete Reactions:

                                     Not all reactions go to completion. In many reactions the starting material after some time stops forming the product due to different conditions. Some reactions attain equilibrium and stop increasing the amount of product. While, in some reactions a by products (like water) formed often react with the product to give a reverse reactions. Hence, the chemistry of reactions also causes the decrease in %age yield.

Handling:

               Another major reason for decrease in yield is handling the product. Always some of the product is lost during the workup of the reaction like, taking TLC, doing solvent extraction, doing column chromatography, taking characterization spectrums. So, we can conclude that the %age yield will always be less than 100%.

Draw the alkyl bromide(s) you would use in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate
Rudik [331]

The structure of the alkyl bromides used in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate are as drawn in the attached image.

<h3>Ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate by Malonic ester synthesis.</h3>

The malonic ester synthesis is a chemical reaction characterized by the alkylation of diethyl malonate or a similar ester of malonic acid at the carbon alpha (directly adjacent) to both carbonyl groups, and subsequently converted to a substituted acetic acid.

Hence, it follows from the structure of Ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate that the alkyl bromides used are Ethyl bromide and methyl bromide.
