A proton transfer reaction can occur when an aldehyde is placed in strong base, such as an alkoxide ion, producing an alcohol an

d a charged conjugate base that is resonance stabilized. In the left box, draw the curved arrows for the proton transfer. In the middle and right boxes, draw the two structures for the resonance-stabilized product as noted in the box-specific directions. Be sure to include all lone pairs and nonzero formal charges.

Hi, you have not provided structure of the aldehyde and alkoxide ion.

Therefore i'll show a mechanism corresponding to the proton transfer by considering a simple example.

Explanation: For an example, let's consider that proton transfer is taking place between a simple aldehyde e.g. acetaldehyde and a simple alkoxide base e.g. methoxide.

The hydrogen atom attached to the carbon atom adjacent to aldehyde group are most acidic. Hence they are removed by alkoxide preferably.

After removal of proton from aldehyde, a carbanion is generated. As it is a conjugated carbanion therefore the negative charge on carbon atom can conjugate through the carbonyl group to form an enolate which is another canonical form of the carbanion.

All the structures are shown below.

Two moles of gas A spontaneously convert to 3 moles of gas b in a container where the temperature and pressure are held constant
erica [24]

At constant temperature and pressure, If the amount of gas increases to the given value, its volume also increases to 20.85L.

<h3>What is Avogadro's law?</h3>

Avogadro's law states that "equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules."

It is expressed as;

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial amount of gas n₁ = 2moles
  • Initial volume v₁ = 13.9L
  • Final amount of gas n₁ = 3moles
  • Final volume v₂ = ?

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

V₁n₂ = V₂n₁

V₂ = V₁n₂ / n₁

V₂ = (13.9L × 3moles) / 2moles

V₂ = 41.7molL / 2mol

V₂ = 20.85L

At constant temperature and pressure, If the amount of gas increases to the given value, its volume also increases to 20.85L.

Highest energy level for lithium​
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

<u>Q</u><u>U</u><u>E</u><u>S</u><u>T</u><u>I</u><u>O</u><u>N</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • highest energy level for lithium

<u>A</u><u>N</u><u>S</u><u>W</u><u>E</u><u>R</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • There are 2 electrons on the first energy level and 1 electron on the second. Explain that the first energy level can only have 2 electrons so the next electron in lithium is on the next (second) level. Explain that neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons.

The electrons in the outer shell of an atom are called:<br> outer<br> ionized<br> polar<br> valence
Marrrta [24]
Valence.

The electrons in the outer shell of an atom are called valence electrons. 

Valence electrons determine whether the an element is ready form compounds. These electrons can be gained, lost, or shared in the formation of compounds.
