Answer:
(S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol
Explanation:
In this case, we have an <u>epoxide opening in acid medium</u>. The first step then is the <u>protonation of the oxygen</u>. Then the epoxide is broken to generate the most <u>stable carbocation</u>. The nucleophile (
) will attack the carbocation generating a new bond. Finally, the oxygen is <u>deprotonated</u> to obtain an ether functional group and we will obtain the molecule <u>(S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol</u>.
See figure 1

The oxidation number of H is -1.
Sum of the oxidation numbers in each element =
charge of the complex
CaH₂ has 1 Ca atom and 2H atoms. The charge of
the complex is zero. Let’s say Oxidation number of H is "a".
Then,
<span> (+2)
+ 2 x a = 0 </span>
<span> +2 + 2a = 0</span>
2a = -2
a = -1
Hence, the oxidation number of Hydrogen atom in CaH₂ is -1
Carbonated drinks have the air under pressure so that carbon bubbles are forced into the drink, keeping it carbonated. So when you open a can, the air under pressure in the can comes out of the can at a high speed, making a "whooshing" sound. The gas law that applies to this concept is the Boyle's Law (PV=k or P1V1=P2V2).
