Acid-catalyzed dehydration of secondary and tertiary alcohols proceeds through an E1 mechanism. The first step is the protonatio

n of alcohol and oxygen to form an oxonium ion.
Dehydration of 3-methyl-2-butanol forms one major and two minor organic products. Draw the structures, including hydrogen atoms, of the three organic products of this reaction.

Answer:

Most substituted alkene is produced as a major product

Explanation:

  • Dehydration of 3-methyl-2-butanol proceeds through E1 mechanism to form alkenes.
  • Most substituted alkene is produced as major product because of presence of highest number of hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms corresponding to the produced double bond (Saytzeff product).
  • Here, a H-shift also occurs in one of the intermediate step during dehydration to produce more stable tertiary carbocation.
  • Reaction mechanism has been shown below.

Since water can be prepared in the laboratory
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

# In a familiar high-school chemistry demonstration, an instructor first uses electricity to split water into its constituent gases, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Then, by combining the two gases and igniting them with a spark, the instructor changes the gases back into water with a loud pop (That means the energy is released in the process).

# There are new other ways to produce water in laboratory, however, the scientists can not produce water in large quantity for the masses, because of some reasons.

1- Theoretically, this is possible, but it would be an extremely dangerous process. Since Hydrogen is extremely flammable and Oxygen supports combustion, it wouldn’t take much to create this force, but we also have an explosion. That’s why this process can be a deadly one if our experiment is big enough.

2- Personally, I think that it makes no sense to produce water in a laboratory ( or in a large plant) for people to use as daily water. The much more important thing we need to do is to save our environment, our planet Earth. Because the daily water people drink contains not just water molecules but other minerals, the marine life is depend not just in water molecules but diferent factors, etc.

Explanation:

This is just my personal opinion. Hope that can help you a little. Have a nice day

Strigol is an important plant hormone that is released by crops such as rice and sugarcane. Unfortunately for these plants, stri
Len [333]

The hydrogen deficiency index( HDI) of strigol is = 10

<h3>How to calculate HDI:</h3>

The hydrogen deficiency index is used to measure the number of degree of unsaturation of an organic compound.

Strigol is an example of an organic compound because it contains carbons and hydrogen.

To calculate the HDI using the molecular formula given (C19H20O6) the formula for HDI is used which is:

hdi =  \frac{1}{2} (2c + 2 + n - h - x)

where C = number of carbon atoms = 19

n= number of nitrogen atoms = 0

h= number of hydrogen atoms = 20

X = number of halogen atoms = 0

Note that oxygen was not considered because it forms two bonds and has no impact.

There for HDI =

\frac{1}{2} (2 \times 19 + 2 + 0 - 20 - 0)

HDI=

\frac{1}{2} (40 - 20)

HDI =

\frac{1}{2}  \times 20

HDI = 10

Therefore, the hydrogen deficiency index of strigol is = 10
