The aqueous hydroxide-promoted reaction of the compound with 2,2-dimethylpropanal (pivalaldehyde) at elevated temperature gives

only one product. Write the mechanism of the reaction and the structure of the final product. Would you mix hydroxide with the ketone and then add the aldehyde, or would you mix hydroxide with the aldehyde and then add the ketone?

Answer:

  The mechanism of this reaction i shown on the second uploaded image

The final product of the reaction is shown on the third uploaded image

The hydroxide would be first mixed with the ketone group before the aldehyde is added  

Explanation:

The compound given in the question is 2,2-dimethylpropanal (pivalaldehyde) the structural formula is shown on the first uploaded image

looking at the structurally formula we can see that the hydroxide promoted reaction of this compound would be between the ketone and aldehyde functional group present in this compound in the presence of a hydroxide

Now this process of the reaction is this

    The OH^- is first  made to react with the ketone group

     Then the aldehyde is added

     What happens is that that the OH^- would search for an acidic proton because it is a base and this acidic proton is present in ketone and absent in aldehyde group hence the reason for the first reaction with the ketone group before the aldehyde is added

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Most of free energy available from oxidation of the glucose remains in pyruvate.

Explanation:

The overall reaction of the process glycolysis is:

Glucose + 2 NAD⁺ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi ⇒ 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H⁺ + 2ATP

Glucose is oxidized to give 2 molecules of pyruvate and 2 molecules of NADH and ATP (Energy currency).

<u>Though the free energy of oxidation of glucose is high but only 2 NADH is formed because the most of the free energy that is being released from the oxidation of glucose remains in the pyruvate which is produced in the reaction and thus only 2 molecules are formed.</u>

if a gas has an initial pressure of 24,650 pa and an initial volume of 376 ml, what is the final volume if the pressure of the g
NNADVOKAT [17]

If a gas has an initial pressure of 24,650 pa and an initial volume of 376 ml, then the final volume would be 11,943.8144 ml if the pressure of the gas is changed to 775 torr assuming that the amount and the temperature of the gas remain constant.

It is given that the initial pressure P₁ is 24,650Pa and initial volumeV₁ is 376ml and the final pressureP₂ is 775 torr. We need to find the final volume of the gas. The final volume could be found using the following formula:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

By substituting the values, we get

24650 x 376 = 776 x V₂

9268400 = 776V₂

V₂ = 9268400/776

V₂ = 11,943.8144 ml

Therefore, the final volume of the gas would be 11,943.8144 ml
