Propose a mechanism for the following reaction.

raketka [301]

First, recognize that this is an elimination reaction in which hydroxide must leave and a double bond must form in its place. It is likely an E2 reaction. Here is an efficient mechanism:
1) Pre-reaction: Protonate the -OH to make it a good leaving group, water. H2SO4 or any strong H+ donor works. The water is positively charged but still connected to the compound.
2) E2: Use a sterically hindered base, such as tert-butoxide (tButO-) to abstract the hydrogen from the secondary carbon. [You want a sterically hindered base because a strong, non-sterically hindered base could also abstract a hydrogen from one of the two methyl groups on the tertiary carbon, and that leads to unwanted products, which is not efficient]. As the proton of hydrogen is abstracted, water leaves at the same time, creating an intermediate tertiary carbocation, and the 2 electrons in the C-H bond immediately are used to make a double bond towards the partial positive charge.
In the products we see the major product and water, as expected. Even though you have an intermediate, remember that an E2 mechanism technically happens in one step after -OH protonation.

How many of the following are oxidation-reduction reactions? I. reaction of a metal with a nonmetal II. synthesis III. combustio

nadezda [96]

Answer : The oxidation-reduction reactions are:

I. reaction of a metal with a nonmetal

II. synthesis

III. combustion

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

I. Reaction of a metal with a nonmetal :

When sodium react with chlorine gas then it react to give sodium chloride.

$2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl$

In this reaction, the oxidation state of sodium changes from (0) to (+1) and shows oxidation and the oxidation state of chlorine changes from (0) to (-1) and shows reduction. So, It is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

II. Synthesis reaction :

A chemical reaction where multiple substances or reactants combine to form a single product.

When hydrogen react with oxygen then it react to give water.

$2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

In this reaction, the oxidation state of hydrogen changes from (0) to (+1) and shows oxidation and the oxidation state of oxygen changes from (0) to (-2) and shows reduction. So, It is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

III. Combustion reaction :

A chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reaction with the oxygen to give product as carbon dioxide and water.

When methane react with oxygen gas then it react to give carbon dioxide and water.

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

In this reaction, the carbon of methane gain oxygen and shows oxidation and the oxygen gas gain hydrogen and shows reduction. So, It is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

IV. Precipitation reaction :

It is defined as the reaction in which an insoluble salt formed when two aqueous solutions are combined.

The insoluble salt that settle down in the solution is known an precipitate.

It is a double displacement reaction. So, it is not an oxidation-reduction reaction.

V. Decomposition reaction :

A chemical reaction in which the the larger molecule decomposes to give two or more smaller molecules.

The oxidation state remains same on reactant and product side. So, it is not an oxidation-reduction reaction.

How many moles of H2 can be made from complete reaction of 3.0 moles of Al?

tresset_1 [31]

Answer: 4.5 moles of $H_{2}$ can be made from complete reaction of 3.0 moles of Al.

Explanation:

The given reaction equation is as follows.

$2Al + 6HCl \rightarrow 2AlCl_{3} + 3H_{2}$

This shows that 2 moles of Al reacts with 6 moles of HCl. So, the amount of HCl required to react with 1 mole Al is three times the amount of HCl.

Therefore, 3 moles of Al will react with 9 moles of HCl to give 3 moles of $AlCl_{3}$ and $\frac{9}{2}$ moles of $H_{2}$ .

The reaction equation now will be as follows.

$3Al + 9HCl \rightarrow 3AlCl_{3} + \frac{9}{2}H_{2}$

The moles $\frac{9}{2}$ can also be written as 4.5 moles.

Thus, we can conclude that 4.5 moles of $H_{2}$ can be made from complete reaction of 3.0 moles of Al.
