Identify reagents necessary to convert cyclohexane into 1,3-cylohexadiene: notice that the starting material has no leaving grou

Vinvika [58]

1,3-cylohexadiene i synthesized starting from cyclohexane in following 4 steps.

1) Free Radical Substitution Rxn: Halogenation of cyclohexane in the presence of UV yield chlorocyclohexane.

2) Elimination Rxn: Dehydrohalogenation of chlorocyclohexane yields cyclohexene.

3) Halogenation of Cyclohexene (Electrophillic Addition Rxn) gives 1,2-dihalocyclohexane.

4) Elemination Rxn: When dibromocyclohexane is treated with KOH and heated it gives 1,3-cyclohexadiene as shown below,

Silicon has 2 isotopes, Silicon-28 with an abundance of 90% and Silicon-30 with an abundance of 10%. Find the AAM for Silicon.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

RAM

$RAM = (mass \: of \: ^{28} Si \: \times \%abundance) + (mass \: of \: ^{30} Si \: \times \%abundance) \\ RAM = (28 \times 90\%) + (30 \times 10\%) \\ RAM = 25.2 + 3 \\ RAM = 28.2$
