Use a sheet of paper to answer the following question. Take a picture of your answers and attach to this assignment. Draw the st
ructure of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanone and explain why it does not form an enol tautomer Explain why cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-one (also called 2,4-cyclohexadienone) exists exclusively in the enol form
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
Structure of the 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanone is give in the attachment
In 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanone, no alpha hydrogen is present, therefore, enol form is not possible and hence, exist only in keto form.
Explanation for existence of cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one only in enol form:
keto form of cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one not aromatic and hence less stable.
Whereas enol form it is aromatic which makes it highly stable. that's why cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one exists only in enol form.

General Formulas and Concepts:
- Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.
- Reading the Periodic Table
- Writing Compounds
- Using Dimensional Analysis
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
6.7 × 10²⁴ molecules NO₂ (Nitrogen dioxide)
<u>Step 2: Define conversions</u>
Avogadro's Number
Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of NO₂ - 14.01 + 2(16.00) = 46.01 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Use Dimensional Analysis</u>
<u /> = 511.901 g NO₂
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>We are given 2 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.</em>
511.901 g NO₂ ≈ 510 g NO₂
