Neopentyl alcohol, (ch3)3cch2oh, cannot be dehydrated to an alkene without rearrangement. what is the chief product of dehydrati

on?

Dehydration is removal of water.

In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.

In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].

The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.

The process or mechanism can be understood as:


so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene

Calculate the atomic mass of chromium it’s composition is 83.79% with a mass of 51.94 amu; 9.50% with a mass of 52.94 Amu; 4.35%
Elina [12.6K]

<span><span>Convert the percentages into decimals (you can do that by dividing the percent by 100), then multiply that by its corresponding mass to find its relative amount/ contribution to the atomic mass of chromium. After doing so, add all of the obtained values together to get the average mass.

</span> 83.79% = .08379
9.50% = .095
4.35% = .0435
2.36% = .0236

Average mass of chromium = 0.8379(51.94) + 0.095( 52.94) + 0.0435(49.95) + 0.0236(53.94)

Answer: 52amu

P.S. never forget units

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

During photosynthesis SOLAR enerrgy is transformed into CHEMICAL energy.

Explanation:

In nutrition, green plants manufactures their own food which they use for both energy and growth. This is called an autotrophic mode of nutrition.

Therefore, photosynthesis is an autotrophic nutrition in which plant can build sugar by taking carbon dioxide from air and water from the soil. For the synthesis of sugar like glucose, carbon dioxide provides carbon

and oxygen whereas water molecules provide hydrogen. The plant builds sugar molecules from these simple compounds. Enzymes needed for this purpose are present in the cells and energy is trapped by chlorophyll from sunlight. This process is summarised in the equation below:

Sunlight (solar)

6CO2 + 6H2O--------------------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

From the equation, Carbon dioxide, water and sunlight (SOLAR energy) is the raw materials needed to produce Glucose and oxygen (CHEMICAL energy) as by products.

padilas [110]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: C. The specific latent heat of fusion

Explanation:

A. The specific latent heat of vaporization  Specific latent heat of vaporization indicates the transition from liquid to vapor, but we are not looking for this definition. This answer is wrong.

B. The specific heat indicates the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of water 1°C, so this answer is wrong.

C. The specific latent heat of fusion . This heat indicate the transition from solid ie to liquid, so this is the right answer.

D. The internal energy measures the energy of the molecules of a substance, so this answer is wrong.

What is the mass in grams of 8 moles of Cu?
frez [133]

Answer:

mass = 508 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Cu = 8 mol

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol.

Now we will put the values in formula.

8 mol = mass /63.5 g/mol

mass = 63.5 g/mol ×8 mol

mass = 508 g
