Using resonance, select the most acidic protons in the hexane-2,4-dione molecule. The most acidic proton is the one that, upon r
emoval, will yield the most stable conjugate base.
Check all that apply.

Answer:
The most acidic Protons are 4 or 5 .
Explanation:
The four types of hydrogen with numbering are shown in the given figure.
In order that a proton is acidic the conjugate base formed by removal of protons must be stable.
In case of given Hexane-2,4-dione molecule , the stability will be due to resonance. If we abstract a proton from the third carbon (between the two carbonyl carbons) it will result in formation of a carbanion, which is stabilized by resonance. The near by oxygen will give stability to the conjugate base by -I effect (negative inductive effect).

Answer: 0.360 moles
Explanation:
To calculate the moles :
The balanced chemical reaction is:
According to stoichiometry :
2 moles of require = 3 moles of
Thus 0.240 moles of will require=
of
Thus 0.360 moles of chlorine needed to react to produce 38.9 of iron (III) chloride.
