When we increase the surface area of an object, more atoms are exposed. Since more atoms are exposed, the atoms can react faster, and this is why the rate of a reaction increases when the surface area increases.
For example, lets say we want to heat a potato. If we just put the whole potato in the microwave, it will take a long time for the potato to get thoroughly heated. However, if we chop the potato into smaller pieces, we will observe that it gets heated much faster. This is because we increased the surface area of the potato, which resulted in more potato atoms to be exposed to the heat, and caused the reaction to be faster.
Answer:
The answer is 2,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol and the structure is attached below.
Explanation:
Although we are not provided with ¹H-NMR spectrum and IR spectrum but still we can elucidate the ¹³C-NMR data and finalize a plausible structure.
First of all we look at the molecular formula, we can conclude from the formula that the structure given is saturated in nature because the hydrogen deficiency index of this formula is zero. Hence, we can say that there is no double bond either between Carbon atoms or between carbon and oxygen atom. This can also be proved by the absence of peaks in downfield as unsaturated compounds and carbonyl compounds give value above 100 and 200 ppm respectively.
Secondly, we can also conclude that among the six carbon atom two pairs of them are having same electronic environment because we are having only 4 signals hence we can conclude that two pairs have same chemical shift values.
Also, after making every possinble isomer of given molecular formula the structure of 2,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol was found to be the most accurate structure.
See Figure 4 below.
1. Draw a 7-carbon chain and number the carbon atoms (<em>Figure 1</em>).
2. Insert a triple bond between atoms 5 and 6 (<em>Figure 2</em>).
3. Attach a phenyl group to atom 3 (<em>Figure 3</em>).
4. Attach a Br to atom 1 (Figure 4).
And you have your structure.
<em>Note</em>: The C≡C triple bond takes <em>priority</em> in the naming, so we must number the chain from the other end. The correct name is
<em>7-bromo-5-phenylhept-2-yne </em>(all one word).
Find the density of the plastic. if the density is less than that of water, it's going to float. If it's more than the density of water, then it's going to sink.
