Aldehydes and ketones having
α-hydrogen atoms, undergoes aldol condensation, in present of base (NaOH).
The initial product formed during this reaction is
β-hydroxy alcohol, which then undergoes dehydration to form
α,β-unsaturated aldehyde or ketone.
In present case, 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone has 2α-hyrogen atom, while methylcyclopentane-1-carbaldehyde has 1α-hydrogen atom. So the major product formed during cross aldol condensation reaction of these reactants is:
5-hydroxy-4,4-dimethly-1-(2-methylcyclopentyl)pent-1-en-3-one. The complete reaction product formed is shown below.
Answer:
0.4 M
Explanation:
Molarity is defined as moles of solute, which in your case is sodium hydroxide,
NaOH
, divided by liters of solution.
molarity
=
moles of solute
liters of solution
Notice that the problem provides you with the volume of the solution, but that the volume is expressed in milliliters,
mL
.
Moreover, you don't have the number of moles of sodium hydroxide, you just have the mass in grams. So, your strategy here will be to
determine how many moles of sodium hydroxide you have in that many grams
convert the volume of the solution from milliliters to liters
So, to get the number of moles of solute, use sodium hydroxide's molar mass, which tells you what the mass of one mole of sodium hydroxide is.

Rounded to one sig fig, the answer will be

0.4 M
Explanation:
The statement that describes a chain reaction brought about by a nuclear reaction is "neutrons <span>released during a fission reaction cause other nuclei to split." This is applicable to fission reactions only wherein atoms split and produce neutrons that also cause further atoms to split, thus creating a chain or series of reactions.</span>
Answer:
Normally, it explains that matter cannot be created or destroyed. It demonstrates different chemical reactions that help show the different transformations of the matter but will never destroy it or create it.
