What class of organic product results when 1-heptyne is treated with a mixture of mercuric acetate in aqueous sulfuric acid, and

then HOCH2CH2OH with catalytic sulfuric acid

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!

Which of the following is TRUE about enzymes?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

All options are correct.

Explanation:

All options are correct.

Enzymes being faster, than chemical catalysts and their reaction rate is almost 10 times faster.They are highly specific producing large amount of good residues and can work at mild conditions, physiological pH and temperature.

They can be regulated by other molecules that either increase or reduce their activity.

Molecules that increase the activity of an enzyme are called activators, while molecules that decrease the activity of an enzyme are called inhibitors.

Black coffee has a pH of around 5. Since pH and pOH have an inverse relationship, black coffee has a pOH of ___.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

pOH = 9.

Explanation:

The inverse relationship between the pH and pOH of any given solution can be written as:

pH = 14 - pOH

Or conversely:

pOH = 14 - pH

With the above information in mind we can <u>use the given pH to calculate the pOH</u>:

pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = 14 - 5

pOH = 9

Thus, black coffee has a pOH of 9.

How many moles of water are produced from 32 grams of methane?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

4 moles

Explanation:

n_{CH4} = \frac{32}{16} = 2 (moles)

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

  1     :    2    :     1    :      2

  2                                         (moles)

⇒ n_{H2O} = 2 × 2 ÷ 1 = 4 (moles)
