Aldol Condensation is a form of electrophilic substitution reaction in which the alpha carbon in enols or enolate anions is substituted by an electrophile to form carbon-carbon bond. Cyclohexanone also known as the first ketone consists of two alpha-carbons and four potential substitutions i.e alpha-hydrogens but none of the hydrogen on the ring is substituted. Ketones such as cyclohexanone are much more acidic than their parent hydrocarbon.

First product is FCH-OH chemically known as 2-[2-furyl(hydroxyl)methyl]-cyclohexanone that further undergoes dehydration resulting into FCH i.e (2E)-2-[2-furyl-methylene]-cyclohexanone

Based on the explanations above, the compound formed is shown in the image.

1. What coefficients would balance the following equation?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

D. 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3

Explanation:

Chemical reactions involves the chemical combination of two or more substances called REACTANTS to yield other substances called PRODUCTS. However, in accordance with the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS, the amount of reactants must be equal to that of the products.

To accomplish this, the reaction must be BALANCED. A balanced equation is an equation in which the number of atoms of each element in the reactant side equals the number of atoms in the product side. In this reaction involving Aluminum and Oxygen to give Aluminum oxide as follows:

Al + 02 → Al2O3

A coefficient is used to balance the number of atoms on both sides of the equation as follows:

4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3
