Answer:

Explain: In order to balance the chemical equation, you need to make sure the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of each element on the product side. In order make both sides equal, you will need to multiply the number of atoms in each element until both sides are equal.

An alkene with the molecular formula C8H16 undergoes ozonolysis to yield a mixture of (CH3)2C=O and (CH3)3CCHO. The alkene is:

aalyn [17]

Answer:

2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of $(CH_{3})_{2}C=O$ and $(CH_{3})_{3}CHO$

Explanation:

In ozonolysis (hydrolysis step involve a reducing agent such as Zn, $Me_{2}S$ etc.), a pi bond is broken to form ketone/aldehyde.

Ketone is formed from di-substituted side of double bond and aldehyde is formed from mono-substituted side of double bond.

Ozoznolysis involves two consecutive steps : (1) formation of ozonide, (2) hydrolysis of ozonide.

Hydrolysis can be done with/without using reducing agent. Carboxylic acid/carbon dioxide/ketone is produced when hydrolysis is done without using reducing agent.

Here, 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of $(CH_{3})_{2}C=O$ and $(CH_{3})_{3}CHO$

Reaction steps are shown below.
