Aldehydes and ketones having α-hydrogen atoms, undergoes aldol condensation, in present of base (NaOH). 

The initial product formed during this reaction is β-hydroxy alcohol, which then undergoes dehydration to form α,β-unsaturated aldehyde or ketone.

In present case, 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone  has 2α-hyrogen atom, while methylcyclopentane-1-carbaldehyde has 1α-hydrogen atom. So the major product formed during cross aldol condensation reaction of these reactants is:
 5-hydroxy-4,4-dimethly-1-(2-methylcyclopentyl)pent-1-en-3-one. 

The complete reaction product formed is shown below.

Explanation:

Aldol condensation refers to a reaction between an enolate ion or enol and a carbonyl compound to produce beta hydroxy aldehyde or beta hydroxy ketone. The initial step in a crossed aldol condensation is ketone deprotonates or enolizable aldehyde.  

An enolizable ketone or aldehyde signifies that it should exhibit one or more alpha hydrogens. In the given case, only 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone possess alpha hydrogen. Thus, it will get deprotonated by the base (hydroxide ion) in the initial step. In the succeeding step, it will be supplemented to the carbonyl carbon of the aldehyde. And in the ultimate step alkoxide gets protonated by water.

2.40 g of NH4Cl is added to 19.4 g of water. Calculate the molality of the solution.
Sholpan [36]
Molality is the moles of solute per kg of solvent.

Moles of NH₄Cl = 2.4 / (14 + 4 x 1 + 35.5)
= 0.0448 mole

Molality = 0.0448 / (19.4 / 1000)
= 2.31 m

What does Hess's law state can be done in order to be able to react solid magnesium with oxygen gas safely (that is, without exp
aleksley [76]

Answer:

C. The reaction can be broken down and performed in steps

Explanation:

Hess's Law of Constant Heat Summation states that irrespective of the number of steps followed in a reaction, the total enthalpy change for the reaction is the sum of all enthalpy changes corresponding to all the steps in the overall reaction. The implication of this law is that  the change of enthalpy in a chemical reaction is independent of the pathway between the initial and final states of the system.

To obtain MgO safely without exposing magnesium to flame, the reaction sequence shown in the image attached may be carried out. Since the enthalpy of the overall reaction is independent of the pathway between the initial and final states of the system, the sum of the enthalpy of each step yields the enthalpy of formation of MgO.
