An alkyne with the molecular formula C5H8 was reduced with H2 and Lindlar's catalyst. Hydroboration-oxidation of the resulting a
1 answer:
Since the addition of the H2O in the last step of hydroboration is anti-Markovnikov, the starting material is 1-pentyne.
The addition of H2 to C5H8 yields an alkene when a Lindlar catalyst is used. Recall that the Lindlar catalysts poisons the process so that the addition do not go on to produce an alkane.
When hydroboration is carried out on the alkene, we are told that a primary alcohol was obtained. We must note that in the last step of hydroboration, water is added in an anti- Markovnikov manner to yield the primary alcohol. Hence, the starting material must be 1-pentyne as shown in the image attached.

Answer:
58.44 g/mol
Explanation:
In this problem, make sure to remember that volume is measured in mL, L or any other units of volume. Remember that g represents grams, and grams is a measure of mass.
However, independent of what mass or what volume we take, molar mass is known to be an intensive property. That is, molar mass doesn't depend on any external conditions or any measurements.
Molar mass solely depends on the chemical structure of a compound and is a constant number at any given conditions.
In this problem, we are given sodium chloride, NaCl. In order to find its molar mass, we need to refer to the periodic table, find the atomic masses of Na and Cl and then add them up to have the molar mass of NaCl:
