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

<h3>Answer:</h3>

150000 J

<h3>General Formulas and Concepts:</h3>

<u>Chemistry</u>

<u>Thermodynamics</u>

Specific Heat Formula: q = mcΔT

  • <em>q</em> is heat (in J)
  • <em>m</em> is mass (in g)
  • <em>c</em> is specific heat (in J/g °C)
  • ΔT is change in temperature (in °C or K)

<u>Math</u>

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

[Given] <em>m</em> = 225 g

[Given] <em>c</em> = 4.184 J/g °C

[Given] ΔT = 133 °C - -26.8 °C = 159.8 °C

[Solve] <em>q</em>

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>q</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Specific Heat Formula]:                                          q = (225 g)(4.184 J/g °C)(159.8 °C)
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                           q = (941.4 J/°C)(159.8 °C)
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                           q = 150436 J

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

150436 J ≈ 150000 J

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

1290 atm

Explanation:

P1V1=P2V2

P2= (P1V1)/V2

P2=(2.15 atm * 750 mL)/(1.25 mL)

P2=1290 atm
