A mixture of hept-1-yne, hept-2-yne, and hept-3-yne was hydrogenated in the presence of a platinum catalyst until hydrogen uptak
e ceased. If one assumes that the hydrogenation went to completion, how many different seven-carbon hydrocarbons were produced?
1 answer:
Answer:
Only one seven carbon hydrocarbon was produced.
Explanation:
- Alkynes are reduced completely in presence of
to produce alkanes.
- Hydrogenation in presence of Pt is a simple nucleophilic addition process where
molecule adds onto an unsaturated bond.
- Hept-1-yne, hept-2-yne and hept-3-yne are constitutionally isomeric to each other. Hence, after complete reduction, all three alkynes produced heptane as only product.
- So, only one seven carbon hydrocarbon was produced.

Answer:
Activation energy of phenylalanine-proline peptide is 66 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
According to Arrhenius equation- , where k is rate constant, A is pre-exponential factor,
is activation energy, R is gas constant and T is temperature in kelvin scale.
As A is identical for both peptide therefore-
Here , T = 298 K , R = 8.314 J/(mol.K) and
So,
(rounded off to two significant digit)
So, activation energy of phenylalanine-proline peptide is 66 kJ/mol
