Complete Question:

check the first image for complete part of the question

Answer and Explanation:

Epoxide is a three membered ring made up of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Epoxides are cyclic ethers. Due to its ring size, it is highly strained and very reactive. Epoxide ring opening takes place with respect to addition of acid and base.

Ring opening of epoxide with acid:  

In the presence of base, the nucleophile attacks the epoxide ring at more substituted site and inverse stereochemistry takes place.(check file 2 attached)

Ring opening of epoxide with base:  

The backside attack of nucleophile takes place in less substituted site and then it undergoes protonation to form a product.

What effect does<br>hybridization have on boods,​
Alchen [17]
Hybridisation influences the bond length and bond enthalpy strength in organic compounds. The sp hybrid orbital contains more s character and hence it is closer to its nucleus and forms shorter and stronger bonds than the sp3 hybrid orbital.
