What are the major organic products are formed when the following compounds react with methylmagnesium bromide (CH3MgBr), follow
ed by the addition of dilute acid?
a) propanal
b) propanone
a) propanal
b) propanone
1 answer:
Answer:
Major organic products are- (a) propan-1-ol and (b) 2-methylpropan-2-ol
Explanation:
methyl magnesium bromide gives nucleophilic addition reaction with carbonyl group. Because methyl magnesium bromide is a strong nucleophile and carbonyl group is a strong electrophilic center.
Propanal contains an aldehyde group and propanone contains a ketone group. hence they both give nucleophilic addition with methyl magnesium bromide.
Dilute acid is added to protonate the alkoxide produced during nucleophilic addition.

0.9mole of Fe
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of Fe = 50g
Unknown:
Number of moles of iron = ?
Solution:
The number of moles is the particle that contains the avogadro's number of particles.
It is a unit for reporting chemical measurement.
To find the number of moles of a substance;
Number of moles =
Molar mass of Fe= 56g/mol
Number of moles = = 0.9mole of Fe
