Answer:

Clayey soil is rich in humus and very fertile, so it is suitable for growing cereals like wheat and gram. Such soil is good at retaining water.Clayey is known to be useful for crops. Because the particle size in this soil is very fine, it has the ability to retain more amounts of water. - This makes it easy for crops to access water as it is very essential for the growth of the plant. - Some of the crops need a high amount of water in order to grow.Clayey soil is made up of fine particles that are tightly packed and increases soil density and strength. It is rich in nutrient content in the form of organic matter or humus so, it is very fertile soil. It has excellent water retaining a capacity.

Draw the alkane formed when 4,5,5-trimethyl-1-hexyne is treated with two equivalents of hbr.

AveGali [126]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

The Alkane formed is 5,5-dibromo-2,2,3-trimethylhexane. as shown below in attached scheme (Green Color).

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Alkynes like Alkenes undergo <em>Electrophillic Addition Reactions</em>. The reaction given is a two step reaction. In step 1, the Alkyne adds first equivalent of HBr obeying <em>Markovnikov's rule</em> (i.e. Bromine will add to carbon containing less number of hydrogen atoms) and forms <em>2-bromo-4,5,5-trimethylhex-1-ene</em>. In step 2, the alkene formed in first step (2-bromo-4,5,5-trimethylhex-1-ene) undergoes addition reaction with the second equivalent of HBr via Markovnikov's rule to produce <em>5,5-dibromo-2,2,3-trimethylhexane</em>.

The scheme is attached below, Blue color is assigned to starting Alkyne, Red color is assigned to intermediate Alkene and Green color is assigned to product Alkane respectively.
