Draw a structural formula of an alkene or alkenes (if more than one) that undergo acid-catalyzed hydration and without rearrange
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

-) 2-methylbut-2-ene

-) 2-methylbut-1-ene

-) 3-methylbut-1-ene

Explanation:

in this case, the hydration of alkenes is a <u>marknovnikov reaction</u>, this means that the "OH" group would be added in the <u>most substituted carbon</u> of the double bond. (Figure 1)

For 2-methylbut-2-ene the most substituted carbon is the <u>tertiary carbon</u> (the carbon in the right of the double bond), so we will obtain the desired molecule. In 2-methylbut-1-ene the most substituted carbon is again the <u>tertiary carbon</u> (the carbon in the bottom of the double bond), so we will obtain 2-methyl-2-butanol. Finally, for 3-methylbut-1-ene the carbocation would be formed on carbon 3, this is a secondary carbocation. We can obtain a most stable carbocation if we do a <u>hydride shift</u> (Figure 2). With this new molecule is possible to obtain 3-methylbut-1-ene.

What is meant by the mass percent concentration of a solution
alexira [117]

Answer:

The mass of a solute divided by the mass of a solution times 100

Explanation:

The concentration of a solution refers to how much of a solute is dissolved in an amount of solvent. To express this concentration exist different methods, the mass percent concentration is one of them and is <em>defined as the mass of a solute divided by the mass of a solution times 100:</em>

<em>%m/m= (mass of a solute/mass of solution)x100</em>

<em>Where the mass of the solution is the sum of the mass of solute and mass of solvent.</em>

%m/m is commonly used when you can measure the masses of both solute and solution.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) + H₂SO₄ (aq) → BaSO₄ (s) + 2HNO₃ (aq)

Explanation:

The equation bellow can be explained by the dissociation of each specie:

Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) →  Ba²⁺ (aq) + 2NO₃⁻ (aq)

H₂SO₄ (aq) →  2H⁺ (aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq)

The reaction will lead to the formation of solid barium sulfate and nitric acid.
