Alkenes on reacting with ozone results in the formation of ozonide which undergo reductive cleavage in presence of dimethyl sulfide to form carbonyl compounds (aldehyde or ketone). Whereas in presence of hydrogen peroxide it undergoes oxidative cleavage to form carboxylic acids or ketones.
Since, A alkene yields 4-heptanone only on treatment with ozone and DMS thus, it implies that both the chains on the side of the double-bond are similar the product is 4-heptanone that means the double bond is present between the chains at the 4th carbon. Therefore the structure of compound A is 4,5-dipropyloct-4-ene.
The reaction is as shown in the image.
The reaction of A with m-CPBA (meta-perchlorobenzoic acid) followed by aqueous acid
is shown in the image.
m-CPBA (meta-perchlorobenzoic acid) is a peracid and forms epoxides on reacting with alkenes.
Answer:
It is the intermolecular forces acting between the molecules that cause attractions between them making them liquids or solids. The strength of Van der Waals forces depends primarily on the number of electrons in total in the molecule, so larger molecules will have higher boiling points.

Answer:
Explain some of the uses of metals based on their properties.
Explanation:
Metals have a shiny or metallic luster and are good conductors of heat and electricity, they can be bent and pounded in various shapes, so they can be used on cars, coins, some pipes, keys, and and a flag.
Answer: B) 46.7% Si and 53.3% O
Explanation:
To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

Mass of quartz
= 5.05 g
Mass of silicon = 2.36 g
Mass of oxygen = Mass of quartz
- mass of silicon = 5.05g - 2.36 g = 2.69 g


Thus the percentages of silicon and oxygen in quartz are B) 46.7% Si and 53.3% O
