Answer:

See picture below

Explanation:

In general terms, oxidation of thiol are rather different than oxidations with alcohols.

A dithiol is a molecule that has two thiols in an organic compound. In the case of the 2,5 hexanedithiol, we have the thiols in the carbon 2 and carbon 5.

When oxidation of thiols occurs, and depending of the number of thiols in the molecule, the final compound will have a sulfide group.

This is because the oxydation makes that the hydrogen atom of the sulfur is substracted. So, in the case of the dithiols, we have that both hydrogen atoms are substracted and then, they are available to join. Therefore, As the thiols are in the same molecule, it will occur a self condensation reaction.

The picture below will show the final product.

Hope this helps

15 grams of sodium reacts with a certain amount of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride, as shown below.
ale4655 [162]

Answer: 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction is one in which two or more than two elements combine together to forma single product.

Na+Cl\rightarrow NaCl

The atoms present in the reactants are found on the product side. According to the law of conservation of mass, the number of atoms on both sides of the arrow must be same as the total mass must be conserved.

15 grams of sodium reacts with 22 grams of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride. Thus 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction.
