Chemistry

garri49 [273]3 years ago

Answer:

tetrahedral aldehyde

Explanation:

  1. The reaction begins with a hydride nucleophile reacting with the ester carbonyl carbon to form the tetrahedral intermediate.
  1. The carbonyl reforms to produce an aldehyde with the loss of the alkoxide ion.
  2. The resulting aldehyde undergoes a subsequent reaction with a hydride nucleophile to form another tetrahedral intermediate. The carbonyl is not able to reform, because there are no stable leaving groups.
  3. Therefore, the tetrahedral intermediate is protonated to produce a primary alcohol.

How to prepare 250.00 ml of approximately 1.0 m hcl solution from the 2.5 m hcl solutio?
kirill115 [55]

To solve this we use the equation, 

M1V1 = M2V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

2.5 M x V1 = 1.0 M x .250 L

<span>V1 = 0.10 L or 100 mL of the 2.5 M HCl solution is needed

Hope this helps.</span>
