Compound H is optically active and has the molecular formula C6H10 and has a five carbon ring. On catalytic hydrogenation, H is

converted to I (C6H12) and I is optically inactive. Propose structures for H and I. (Draw a three-dimensional formula for each using dashes and wedges around chiral centers.)

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that ;

Compound H is optically active and have a molecular formula of C6H10 and therefore undergo catalytic hydrogenation. Catalytic hydrogenation involves the use Platinum/Nickel to produce C6H12

i.e

C_6H_{10} +H_2 \to  ^{Pt/Ni}  \ \ \ C_6H_{12}

The proposed H and I structures are shown in the diagrams attached below .

compound H represents  3- methyl cyclopentene

compound I represents methyl cyclopentane

However; 3- methyl cyclopentene posses just only one chiral carbon which is optically active at the third position and it R and S enantiomers are shown in the second diagram below.

A student balanced the chemical equation Mg + O2 →MgO by writing Mg + O2 → MgO2. Was the equation balanced correctly? Explain yo
Amanda [17]

Explanation:

Charges on both magnesium and oxygen is 2. Though opposite in sign, they have equal charges so, both of them will be cancelled by each other.

As a result, formula of magnesium oxide is MgO and not MgO_{2}.

The student write the equation as Mg + O_2 \rightarrow MgO_2, it is not correct.

Therefore, given equation will be balanced as follows.

          2Mg + O_{2} \rightarrow 2MgO

Since, number of atoms on both reactant and product side are equal. Hence, this equation is completely balanced.
