Answer: The product from the reduction reaction is

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

IUPAC name; 3- Methylpentan-1-ol

Explanation:

Since oxidation is simply the addition of oxygen to a compound and reduction is likewise the addition of hydrogen to a compound.

Therefore, hydrogen is added onto the carbon atom adjacent to oxygen in 3- methyl pentanal

CH3 CH2 CHCH3 CH2 CHO thereby -CHO( aldehyde functional group) are reduced to CH2OH ( Primary alcohol) which gives;

3-methylpenta-1-ol .

The structure of the product is:

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

Answer:

The ionization energy (in kJ/mol) of the helium ion is 21,004.73 kJ/mol .

Explanation:

$E_n = -(2.18 10-18 J)\times \frac{Z^2}{n^2}$

Z = atomic mass

n = principal quantum number

Energy of the electron in n=1,

$E_1= -(2.18 10^{-18} J)\times \frac{4^2}{1^2}=-3.488\times 10^{-17} J$

Energy of the electron in n = ∞

$E_{\infty}= -(2.18 10^{-18} J)\times \frac{2^2}{\infty ^2}=0 J$

Ionization energy of the $He^+$ ion:

$I.E=E_{infty}-E_1=0-(-3.488\times 10^{-17} J)=3.488\times 10^{-17} J$

$I.E=3.488\times 10^{-20} kJ$

To convert in into kj/mol multiply it with $N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}$

$I.E=3.488\times 10^{-20} kJ\times 6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}=21,004.73kJ/mol$

Answer:

number of carbon-carbon single (C - C) bonds: 1

number of carbon-hydrogen single (C H) bonds: 5

number of nitrogen-hydrogen sing le (N H) bonds:2

number of lone pairs: 1

Explanation:

Ethanamine is a colourless gas having a strong 'ammonia- like' odour. It contains the -NH2 group which makes it an amine. It contains one carbon-carbon bond, five carbon-hydrogen bonds and two nitrogen-hydrogen bonds.

Nitrogen, being sp3 hybridized in the compound has a lone pair of electrons localized on one of the sp3 hybridized orbitals of nitrogen while one sp3 hybridized orbital of nitrogen is used to form a carbon-nitrogen bond. The other two sp3 hybridized orbitals on nitrogen are used to form the two nitrogen-hydrogen bonds.
