aqueous acid

Chemistry

Pavlova-9 [17]4 years ago

Answer:

Pentan-2-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have a <u>Grignard reagent</u> (ethylmagnesium bromide), therefore we will have the production of a <u>carbanion</u> (step 1). Then this carbanion can <u>attack the least substituted carbon</u> in the epoxide in this case carbon 1 (step 2). In this step, the epoxide is open and a negative charge is generated in the oxygen. The next step, is the <u>treatment with aqueous acid</u>, when we add acid the <u>hydronium ion</u> (H^+)  would be produced, so in the reaction mechanism, we can put the hydronium ion. This ion would be <u>attacked by the negative charge</u> produced in the second step to produce the final molecule: <u>"Pentan-2-ol".</u>

See figure 1

Which of the following is NOT a physical change?
andrey2020 [161]
Your answer is the last option, the explosion of fireworks. This is because all of the other options are physical changes because they don't change the substance, they only affect it in some way. However the explosion of a firework clearly changes a substance inside the initial 'rocket' into fireworks.

I hope this helps!
