Answer:
The reactive nucleophile is Ketone.
Explanation:
In organic chemistry, The process of acid - catalyzed aldol condensation starts from when ketone (or any aldehyde) is converted to an -enol, after which it attacks another ketone/aldehyde that has already been activated by parbonyl oxygen protonation.
The process of this is that first of all the ketone undergoes tautomerization to form -enol. Thereafter, the other carbonyl will undergo protonation which makes the carbon activated towards attack. Now, the nucleophilic enol will be added to the carbonyl in a [1,2]-addition reaction and we will now use deprotonation to obtain the neutral Aldol product.
Now, since only the ketone can produce an -enol, thus it is the nucleophile as aldehydes are better electrophiles

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
Silicon reacts with carbon dioxide to form silicon carbide and silicon dioxide. Write the balanced chemical equation.
<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.
A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of silicon and carbon dioxide follows:
![2Si+CO_2\rightarrow SiC+SiO_2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2Si%2BCO_2%5Crightarrow%20SiC%2BSiO_2)
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
2 moles of silicon reacts with 1 mole of carbon dioxide gas to produce 1 mole of silicon carbide and 1 mole of silicon dioxide
Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.
The frequency of radiation : 1.2 x 10¹⁵ Hz
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Radiation energy is absorbed by photons
The energy in one photon can be formulated as
![\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clarge%7B%5Cboxed%7B%5Cbold%7BE%5C%3A%3D%5C%3Ah%5C%3A.%5C%3Af%7D%7D%7D)
Where
h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)
f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves
<h3>f = c / λ
</h3>
c = speed of light
= 3.10⁸ m/s
λ = wavelength
Wavelength-λ is 2.51 x 10⁻⁷m
The frequency :
![\tt f=\dfrac{3.10^8}{2.51\times 10^{-7}}=1.2\times 10^{15}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%20f%3D%5Cdfrac%7B3.10%5E8%7D%7B2.51%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-7%7D%7D%3D1.2%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B15%7D)
