Question

**Predict the Major Product of the Reaction Shown**

This exercise asks students to identify the major product of the chemical reaction provided:

**Reaction:**
- Starting compound: An alkyne with a methyl group attached to the second carbon.
- Reaction conditions: Hg²⁺, H₂SO₄, H₂O

**Options for the major product:**

- **a.** A ketone with the carbonyl group on the second carbon.

- **b.** An alcohol with the hydroxyl group on the second carbon.

- **c.** A ketone with the carbonyl group on the third carbon.

- **d.** An aldehyde with the carbonyl group on the fourth carbon.

**Explanation of Diagrams:**
- Each structure displays variations in functional groups. Pay attention to where the carbonyl (C=O) or hydroxyl (OH) groups are attached to decide the correct product.

**Additional Instructions:**
- Consider the reaction mechanism such as hydration of alkynes in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate and sulfuric acid, which usually leads to the formation of ketones.

**Navigation Note:**
- At the bottom of the page, navigational options include a dropdown menu labeled "Jump to..." and a link titled "Worksheet and Problem Set Chapter 5."

This educational material aims to reinforce understanding of organic reaction mechanisms, specifically alkyne hydration.
