Chemistry

Answer:

2-methyl-2-pentyl-1,3-dioxolane

Explanation:

In this case, we have two reactions:

First reaction:

1-heptyne + mercuric acetate -------> Compound A

Second reaction:

Compound A + HOCH2CH2OH -------> Compound C

<u>First reaction</u>

In the first reaction, we have as a main functional group a triple bond. We have to remember that mercuric acetate in sulfuric acid will produce a ketone. The carbonyl group (C=O) would be placed in the most substituted carbon of the triplet bond (in this case, carbon 2). With this in mind, we will have as a product: heptan-2-one. (See figure 1).

<u>Second reaction</u>

<u />

In this reaction, we have as reagents:

-) Heptan-2-one

-) Ethylene-glycol HOCH_2CH_2OH

-) Sulfuric acid H_2SO_4

When we put ethylene-glycol with a ketone or an aldehyde we will form a cyclic acetal. In this case, this structure would be formed on carbon 2 forming 2-methyl-2-pentyl-1,3-dioxolane. (See figure 2).

I hope it helps!

What changes occur at the molecular level when ice cream melts and forms a liquid?
Gemiola [76]
When ice cream melts from solid to liquid, the motion of the molecules increases. This is because as the phase change moves from solid to liquid to gas, entropy increases which increases the probability of the molecules to collide and move in the system. This increase may be because of the increase in temp, probable cause of the melting of icecream.
