Answer:

a. 3-methylbutan-2-ol

b. 2-methylcyclohexan-1-ol

Explanation:

For this reaction, we must remember that the hydroboration is an <u>"anti-Markovnikov" reaction</u>. This means that the "OH" will be added at the <em>least substituted carbon of the double bond.</em>

In the case of <u>2-methyl-2-butene</u>, the double bond is between carbons 2 and 3. Carbon 2 has two bonds with two methyls and carbon 3 is attached to 1 carbon. Therefore <u>the "OH" will be added to carbon three</u> producing <u>3-methylbutan-2-ol</u>.

For 1-methylcyclohexene, the double bond is between carbons 1 and 2. Carbon 1 is attached to two carbons (carbons 6 and 7) and carbon 2 is attached to one carbon (carbon 3). Therefore<u> the "OH" will be added to carbon 2</u> producing <u>2-methylcyclohexan-1-ol</u>.

See figure 1

Hydrazine (N 2 H 4 )) a rocket fuel reacts with oxygen to form nitrogen gas and water vapor . The reaction is represented with t

Drupady [299]

The mass of hydrazine (N₂H₄) required to produce 96 g of water (H₂O) is 85.4 g (Option C)

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

N₂H₄ + O₂ —> N₂ + 2H₂O

Molar mass of N₂H₄ = (2×14) + (4×1) = 32 g/mol

Mass of N₂H₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 32 = 32 g

Molar mass of H₂O = (2×1) + 16 = 18 g/mol

Mass of H₂O from the balanced equation = 2 × 18 = 36 g

SUMMARY

From the balanced equation above,

36 g of H₂O were produced by 32 g of N₂H₄

<h3>How to determine the mass of N₂H₄</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

36 g of H₂O were produced by 32 g of N₂H₄

Therefore,

96 g of H₂O will be produced by = (96 × 32) / 36 = 85.4 g of N₂H₄

Thus, 85.4 g of N₂H₄ is needed for the reaction

Use bond energies from Table 10.3 in the textbook to estimate the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the following reaction. C2H2(g)+H2(g)

Digiron [165]

Answer: $=176.6kJmol^{-1}$

Explanation:Bond energy of H-H is 436.4 kJ/mole

Bond energy of C-H is 414 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C=C is 620 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C≡C is 835 kJ/mol

$\Delta H= {\text {sum of bond energies of reactants}}- {\text {sum of bond energies of products}}$

$\Delta H$ = {1B.E(C≡C)+2B.E(C-H) +1B.E(H-H)} - {1B.E(C=C)+4B.E(C-H)}

$\Delta H= {1B.E(835kJmole^{-1})+2B.E(414kJmole^{-1}) +1B.E(436.4kJmole^{-1})} - {1B.E(620kJmole^{-1})+4B.E(414kjmole^{-1})}$

$=176.6kJmol^{-1}$

A certain hydrocarbon has a molecular formula of C9H16. Which of the following is not a structural possibility for this hydrocar

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that molecular formula is $C_{9}H_{16}$ . Now, we will calculate the degree of unsaturation as follows.

Degree of unsaturation = $C_{n} - \frac{\text{monovalent}}{2} + \frac{\text{trivalent}}{2} + 1$

= $9 - \frac{16}{2} + 1$

= 9 - 8 + 1

= 2

As the degree of unsaturation comes out to be 2. It means that this compound will contain one ring and one double bond.

Yes, this compound could be an alkyne as for alkyne D.B.E = 2.

But this compound cannot be a cycloalkane because for a cycloalkane D.B.E = 1 which is due to the ring only.

Thus, we can conclude that it is a cycloalkane is not a structural possibility for this hydrocarbon.
