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

Calculate the how many sodium atoms must react completely to give 33,6 dm³ hydro-
lions [1.4K]

To give 33.6 dm³ hydrogen gas at STP, 18.06 x 10²³ atoms of Na must react completely.

<h3>What is Mole concept ?</h3>

A mole is a unit of measurement used to measure the amount of any fundamental entity (atoms, molecules, ions) present in the substance.

As according to the given equation, 2 moles (ie 12.04 x 10²³ atoms) of Na-atoms produces 1 mole (22.4 ltr) of H₂-gas.

Hence, to produce 33.6 ltr (equivalent to 33.6 dm³) of H₂-gas produced by ;

   = 12.04 x 10²³ atoms of Na / 22.4 ltr of H₂-gas x 33.6 ltr

   = 18.06 x 10²³ atoms of Na

Hence, To give 33.6 dm³ hydrogen gas at STP, 18.06 x 10²³ atoms of Na must react completely.

timama [110]

Answer:

pI = 6.16

Explanation:

The pI is given by the average of the pKas that are involved. In this case,

Pka of carboxylic acid was given as 2.72 and that of the Amino group was given as 9.60. the average would then be ½(2.72+9.60)

= 6.16

Which colorless and odorless gas, produced by radioactive decay of Uranium-238, is considered to be a cancer-causing agent?
DiKsa [7]
B, radon is correct. Interestingly, it often collects in basements from radioactive decay of rocks such as granite that contain uranium. Because it is an unreactive noble gas and because it is denser than air it sits in basements and must be pumped out. It collects in human lungs and is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking.
