### Question 5

#### Instruction:
**Give the reagents.**

#### Diagram:
The diagram represents a chemical reaction, starting with an organic molecule that consists of a benzene ring attached to a propene chain with a methyl group on the terminal carbon. The product of the reaction shows the benzene ring forming a benzaldehyde (benzene with a formyl group) and the propene chain splitting to form acetaldehyde (ethanal).

Starting Material:   Product:
          _______
         |       |
         |       |
         |       |
          \_____/
              |
              CH2-CH=CH-CH3     ---->    _______
                                      |       |
                                      |       |
                                      |       |-CHO   +   CH3-CHO
                                      \______/
```

#### Answer Options:
- O mCPBA
- O 1. BH3, 2. H2O2, NaOH
- O KMnO4, H2O
- O O3
- O 1. Hg(OAc)2, H2O 2. NaBH4

#### Note:
Moving to another question will save this response.

#### Explanation:
**The correct reagent choice is `O3` (ozone) indicating the process is ozonolysis of an alkene.**

### Educational Context:
This question is designed to test the student's knowledge of organic chemistry, particularly the reaction conditions required to transform alkenes into carbonyl compounds through distinct oxidative cleavage. The options represent different oxidizing and reducing agents or conditions used in organic synthesis.
