They are formed behind an obstacle when the wind blows the sand up to it.
There are 1,69*10^2^4 molecules. Hope this helps. This was a hard question so if im right can u give brainliest?
The given compound is being synthesized by condensing
Acetone and
Pivaldehyde (Trimethylacetaldehyde).
First Acetone is treated with
Base, the base abstracts the mildly acidic proton present at alpha position to carbonyl group. The resulting specie called
enolate act as a nucleophile and attacks on highly reactive aldehyde which upon
dehydration yields the
Aldol Product. The Reaction is as follow,
<span>Saturated sodium chloride
is used to transfer the product rather than water since it is not polar and
rinsing the product with water would revert any 4-methylcyclohexene back to
4-methylcyclohexanol in the Hickman Head and thus lowering the percent yield;
using water would shift the equilibrium towards the reactants. Also
sodium chloride removes the small amount of phosphoric acid and also a small
amount of water. If one were to add water, both 4-methylcyclohexene and
phosphoric acid are partially soluble making difficult to remove the water
later; sodium chloride makes the water less reactive so easier to remove by
making the aqueous later more polar.</span>
