An unknown compound displays singlets at δ 2.1 ppm and 2.56 ppm in the ratio of 3:2. what is the structure of the compound?
1 answer:
1) As can be seen from any 1H NMR chemical shift ppm tables, hydrogens which have δ values from 2ppm to 2.3ppm are hydrogens from carbon which is bonded to a carbonyl group. From this, we can conclude that our hydrogens belong to the type, but from 2 different alkyl groups because of 2 different signals.
2) So, one alkyl group is CH3 and second one can be CH or CH2.
3) If we know that ratio between two types of hydrogens is 3:2, it can be concluded that second alkyl group is CH2.
4) Finally, we don't have any other signals and it indicates that part of the compound which continues on CH2 is exactly the same as the first part.
The ratio remains the same, 3:2 ie 6:4

Answer : The balanced reduction half-reaction is:
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.
The given balanced redox reaction is :
The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:
Oxidation reaction :
Reduction reaction :
In order to balance the electrons, we multiply the oxidation reaction by 2 and reduction reaction by 3 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.
Oxidation reaction :
Reduction reaction :
The balanced redox reaction will be:
Thus, the balanced reduction half-reaction is:
Answer:
MES for pH near to 6.0 and MOPS for pH near to 7.5.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, given that the Henderson-Hasselbach equation is:
Good's buffers are those having pKa's near to the required pH since we look for a [Base]/[Acid] ratio to approach 1, thus, for a pH near to 7.0 a good buffer may be MOPS as it has a pKa of 7.5 and for a pH neat to 6.0 a good buffer may be MES as it has a pKa of 6.15.
Best regards.
