Compound X has the formula C8H14. X reacts with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form

a mixture of cis- and trans-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclopentane. Treatment of X with ozone followed by zinc in aqueous acid gives a ketone and formaldehyde (CH2=O). What is the structure of X?

Answer:

1-Ethyl-3-methylidenecyclopentane  

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula = C₈H₁₄. An alkane has formula C₈H₁₈. ∴ X contains 2 double bonds, 2 rings, or 1 ring and 1 double bond.

X absorbs only 1 mol of hydrogen. ∴ X contains 1 ring and 1 double bond.

Hydrogenation gives 1-ethyl-3-methylcyclopentane.

Ozonolysis gives formaldehyde, so X must contain a =CH₂ group.  

Hydrogenation of X converted the =CH₂ to -CH₃.

X is 1-ethyl-3-methylidenecyclopentane.

Matter can exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas. The solid state is distinguished by its ability to
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire available volume like a gas. Solids molecules stay close to eachother maintaining its shape meaning it is in a ordered pattern.

When encountering another vessel in darkness or reduced visibility, what do visible red and green lights indicate?
Nonamiya [84]

When encountering another vessel in darkness, the visible white, red and green lights indicate you are approaching a powerboat head-on.

In this case neither vessels has the right of way. Both boat operators must take early action to stay out of the way for other vessels. The operators must reduce their speed and steer to starboard.  

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

The visible white, red and green lights are all navigation lights with different purposes. However, the four common navigational lights are sidelights, sternlight, Masthead light and all-round white light.

Sidelights are also referred to as combination lights. It is the combination of red and green light and visible to another vessel that approaching head on or from the side. The green light is the boat starboard (right hand side) and the red light is the port side (left) of a vessel.

The sternlight is the white light seen from behind the vessel.

The masthead light is a white light. The white light shines forward to all sides of the vessels. It is on all power driven vessels.

All-round white light is a white light used to combine sternlight and masthead light to form a single white light so that it can boldly be seen by other vessels.
