Dehydration is removal of water.
In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.
In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].
The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.
The process or mechanism can be understood as:
so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene
Answer: Cellular respiration is spontaneous and exergonic. The energy released from the glucose is stored in ATP molelcules.
Explanation:
Spontaneous reactions have an increase in entropy (level of disorder) and a decrease in enthalpy (total energy). Cellular respiration goes from a more ordered state (one molecule of glucose) to a more disordered state (several molecules of CO2), and goes from a state with a lot of free energy to one with much less free energy. As a result, respiration is a spontaneous process.
As free energy from the glucose is released as ATP molecules during oxidation, the reaction is exergonic.
Answer:
A change in form or appearance of matter
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
A substance melting is a physical change and the properties of the substance will remain same, only that the substance will just become liquid.
On the other hand, burning is a chemical change which produces an entirely new compount(in most cases, ash) which does not have the same properties as the original object
Due to it's electronic configuration w/c is 1s2 2s2 2ps 3s1 considering the last w/c is 3s1, sodium should be in row 3 period a1.
