aqueous acid

Pavlova-9 [17]3 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

I hope it helps!

Answer: Massive

Explanation: There are many galaxies out in the universe and it's possible they go on indefinitely. Out of all of these, our solar system is very very tiny. As an analogy, our universe would be like an atom which are the the smallest units of matter. There are many other galaxies that we just haven't been able to discover but they are there.
