Answer:

The product is cyclohexanol

Explanation:

Firstly,

A ketone undergo a borohydride reduction reaction to form an alcohol as below,

R-CO-R'  ⇒ R-CO(OH)-R'

  1. IR Spectrum confirms that alcohol group is existed with the peak at 3400 cm⁻¹
  2. From 1H-NMR, the product has 10 hydrogen atoms, the MS suggest that the formula is C₅H₁₀O (M = 86). With this formula, the alcohol is monosaturated. Since, the substance already underwent reduction reaction, the only way to suggest a monosaturated compound is a cyclic alcohol. So the compound is cyclopentanol.
  3. Check with other spectroscopic properties,
  • 3 signals of 13C NMR confirms the structure is symmetrical, δ 24.2, (-<u>C</u>H₂-CH₂-CH(CH₂-)-OH), δ 35.5 (-CH₂-<u>C</u>H₂-CH(CH₂-)-OH), δ 73.3 (-CH₂-CH₂-<u>C</u>H(CH₂-)-OH).
  • 1H NMR confirms,

        1.56 δ (4H, triplet) - (-C<u>H</u>₂-CH₂-CH-OH) ; triplet as coupling with 2 H,

        1.78 δ (4H, multiplet)  - (-CH₂-C<u>H</u>₂-CH-OH); multiplet as coupling with 2H of CH₂, 1 H of CH

         3.24 δ (1H, quintet); - (-CH₂-CH₂-C<u>H</u>(CH₂-)-OH), coupling with4 H of 2 group of CH₂

         3.58 δ (1H, singlet); - (-CH₂-CH₂-CH(CH₂-)-O<u>H</u>), hydrogen of alcohol group, not tend to coupling with other hydrogen

How many total valence electrons are available for the Lewis Dot structure of H2S?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

8 Valence Electrons

Explanation:

  • There are 2 atoms of Hydrogen and 1 atom of Sulfur in the compound.
  • Each Hydrogen atom has 1 electron (which is the valence electron).
  • Sulfur has six valence electrons.
  • Therefore, there is a total of eight valence electrons in H2S.

A solution is 40 cetic acid by mass. the density of this solution is 1.049 g/ml. Calculate the mass of pure acetic acid in 220 m
taurus [48]

The mass of pure acetic acid in 220 ml of the given solution at 20°C is 92.311 g

<h3>What is Acetic acid?</h3>

Acetic acid is a type of carboxylic acid and also known as ethanoic acid

Its formula is CH₃COOH.

It is an organic compound and is a colorless liquid

It is mostly used in the production of vinegar

40 % acetic acid by mass means,

40 g of acetic acid is dissolved in 100 g of solution.

The density of solution at 20°C,

\rho = 1.049 g/ml

We know,

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

V = \frac{m}{\rho}

The volume of the solution, V = \frac{100}{1.049} = 95.33 ml

95.33 ml of solution contains 40 g of pure Acetic acid

220 ml of solution contains\frac{40 \times 220}{95.33} = 92.311 g of pure Acetic acid

Thus, the mass of pure Acetic acid in 220 ml of solution at 20°C is 92.311 g
