By what mechanism does cyclohexanol react when treated in sulfuric acid and what compound results?A) E 1; methoxycyclohexane B)
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

E 1: cyclohexene

Explanation:

This reaction is an example of the dehydration of cyclic alcohols. The reaction proceeds in the following steps;

1) The first step of the process is the protonation of the cyclohexanol by the acid. This now yields H2O^+ attached to the cyclohexane ring.

2) the water molecule, which a good leaving group now leaves yielding a carbocation. This now leaves a cyclohexane carbocation which is highly reactive.

3) A water molecule now abstracts a proton from the carbon adjacent to the carbocation leading to the formation of cyclohexene and the regeneration of the acid catalyst. This is an E1 mechanism because it proceeds via a carbocation intermediate and not a concerted transition state, hence the answer.

How does the density of protostars compare to other stars?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Protostars are less dense than other stars.  

Explanation:

Protostars are very young ‘stars’ made from hydrogen clouds that are beginning to coalesce and collapse under their weight. The hydrogen has not even begun fusing. Therefore, they are mainly made of hydrogen which is the lightest element in the universe.

Stars, however, have begun fusing hydrogen to other heavier elements like helium, carbon, oxygen, and iron. The elements are much heavier than hydrogen making other stars much denser than protostars.
