Answer:

2-methylene propylbenzene

Explanation:

The Wittig Reaction is a reaction that converts aldehydes and ketones into alkenes through reaction with a phosphorus ylide.

The ketone in this case is 1-phenylpropan-1-one. The provided phosphonium ylide is shown in the image attached. The reaction involves;

i) alkylation

ii) addition

The product of the major organic product of the reaction is 2-methylene propylbenzene.

How does mass affect potential energy?

Andreyy89

What i would say: The amount of gravitational potential energy an object has depends on its height and mass. The heavier the object and the higher it is above the ground, the more gravitational potential energy it holds. Gravitational potential energy increases as weight and height increases.

Hope this helps! :)

Zinc phosphide, Zn3P2, is often used as a rat poison. Phosphorus has 5 valence electrons. How many valence electrons does each z

Helen [10]

The choices that should have accompanied this question were:
A. 1
B. 2 
C. 3 
D. 4

My answer is B. 2.
Below is an explanation, I found while doing the research.

Phosphate needs 3 electrons each totaling 6 electrons so each zinc will need to give up 2 electrons.

Phosphate wants to imitate the electron configuration of Argon because noble configurations are the most stable. With P getting the extra electrons the valence shell will be 3s2 3p6, which is the same as Argon. Without the extra electrons, the P valence shell looks like this 3s2 3p3, now you can see why each phosphorus wants 3 more electrons, that will make it 3s2 3p6, just like Argon.
