Answer:
See explanation and image attached
Explanation:
My aim is to convert 1-bromobutane to butanal. The first step is to react the 1-bromobutane substrate with water. This reaction occurs by SN2 mechanism to yield 1-butanol. Hence reagent A is water.
1-butanol is now reacted with an oxidizing agent such as acidified K2Cr2O7 (reagent B) to yield butanal. Note that primary alkanols are oxidized to alkanals.
These sequence of reactions are shown in the image attached.
Answer:
- Empirical:
- Molecular:
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, based on the information regarding the combustion, the moles of carbon turn out:
Moreover, the moles of hydrogen:
Thus, the subscripts of carbon and hydrogen in the hydrocarbon turn out:
Now, looking for a suitable whole number we obtain the following empirical formula as 2.335 times 3 is 7 for hydrogen:
In such a way, that compound has a molar mass of 43 g/mol, thus, the whole compound's molar mass is 86.18 g/mol for which the molecular formula is twice the empirical one, therefore:
Which is hexane.
Best regards.
