NEED HELP NOT GRADED PRACTICE 

**Problem Statement:**

6. For the following molecule, provide the number of peaks you expect in each \( ^1H \) NMR signal **due to splitting** in the boxes provided.

**Molecular Structure:**

The diagram features a molecule with the chemical composition shown below:

- A central carbon (C) attached to a methylene group (\( CH_2 \)), which in turn is attached to a methyl group (\( CH_3 \)) and another methylene group (\( CH_2 \)). 
- One of the methylene groups is bonded to an oxygen atom (O).
- The oxygen atom is bonded to a carbon which is bonded to two other methyl groups (\( CH_3 \)).
- Each hydrogen group (either \( CH_3 \) or \( CH_2 \)) has a corresponding empty box to indicate the number of peaks expected in the ^1H NMR signal due to splitting.

**Explanation of the Diagram:**

The molecular structure includes several groups with indicated empty boxes for the expected number of NMR peaks due to splitting:

1. **Top Left Box**: Corresponds to the \( CH_3 \) group attached to the oxygen through a single carbon.
2. **Bottom Left Box**: Corresponds to another \( CH_3 \) group attached similarly to the oxygen through the same carbon.
3. **Top Middle Box**: Corresponds to the \( CH \) group attached directly to the oxygen.
4. **Top Right Box**: Corresponds to the \( CH_2 \) group that is connected to the central carbon and is adjacent to a \( CH_3 \) group.
5. **Bottom Box**: Corresponds to the central \( CH_2 \) group that is bonded to a \( CH_3 \) group and the oxygen through the previous carbon.
6. **Right Box**: Corresponds to the \( CH_3 \) group bonded to the methylene group directly bonded to the carbon central \( CH_2 \).
