PRACTICE PROBLEM Two compounds, A and B, have the same molecular formula, C6H8. Both A and B react with two molar equivalents of
hydrogen in the presence of platinum to yield cyclohexane. Compound A shows three signals in its broadband decoupled NMR spectrum. Compound B shows only two NMR signals. Compound A shows an absorption maximum at 256 nm, whereas B shows no absorption maximum at wavelengths longer than 200 nm. What are the structures of A and B
1 answer:
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
One basic thing that we must keep in mind is that A and B are both dienes.
The NMR spectrum and absorption maxima of A and B indicates that A may be a conjugated diene while B may be an isolated diene.
Remember that conjugated dienes shift the absorption maxima to longer wavelengths due to π - π* transition.
The two structures attached may suffice for compounds A and B

Iron is the very last product in stellar fusion is that; Iron has a tightly bound nucleus, and atoms larger than iron are less stable and tend to undergo nuclear fission.
The stability of an atom is dependent on the binding energy per nucleon of the atom.
The binding energy per nucleon of elements increases steadily until iron, we can see that from the curve very easily.
Beyond iron, we have exceeded the region of stable binding energy per nucleon of atoms. The atoms after iron in the curve are mostly unstable heavy nuclei.
