Explain two reasons why SI is easier to use than the English system
2 answers:
Answer:
1. SI units are easy to remember
2. English system needs lots of calculation while converting it from one unit to other
3. SI unit is universally accepted.
Explanation:
1. SI units are easy to remember
2. English system needs lots of calculation while converting it from one unit to other.
in SI unit base 10 is used to convert from one unit to other,I is similar to number system, therefore it is very easy to remember and convert between units.
In English system it is very difficult to memorize when we have to convert bigger unit to smaller unit by several orders of magnitude and it needs lots of calculation.
Example:
Suppose we have to determine how many millimeters are there in a meter? then we can easily determine
we can easily remember it as milimeter means
on the other hand if we have convert microns into a mile than it needs lots of calculation.
3. SI unit is universally accepted.

The given compound is being synthesized by condensing Acetone and Pivaldehyde (Trimethylacetaldehyde).
First Acetone is treated with Base, the base abstracts the mildly acidic proton present at alpha position to carbonyl group. The resulting specie called enolate act as a nucleophile and attacks on highly reactive aldehyde which upon dehydration yields the Aldol Product. The Reaction is as follow,
