Answer:

Electric current

Hydrogen and oxygen gas

Explanation:

Electrolysis is defined as a method of separation whereby an electric current is introduced into compounds to separate them . The electric current used here is a direct electric current (DC) and it makes the compound to be spit into its' component elements.

Now, in the case of water like it says in the question. Water is a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gas. Thus, when electric current is passed through water which has an Electrolyte, it makes the water to decompose into its compound elements which are hydrogen and oxygen.

Answer:

(S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol

Explanation:

In this case, we have an epoxide opening in acid medium. The first step then is the protonation of the oxygen. Then the epoxide is broken to generate the most stable carbocation. The nucleophile ( $CH_3OH$ ) will attack the carbocation generating a new bond. Finally, the oxygen is deprotonated to obtain an ether functional group and we will obtain the molecule (S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol.
