Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The complete, detailed mechanism for the given reaction is to be drawn, and the major product is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The electrophilic addition of a Bronsted acid to the carbon-carbon double bond of alkenes is susceptible to carbocation rearrangements due to the stability of the carbocation. The carbocation rearrangement occurs via either 1, 2 hydride shift or 1, 2 methyl shift, depending on the stability of carbocation formed. The stability order for carbocations is secondary benzylic > tertiary > secondary benzylic > secondary allylic > secondary > primary > methyl etc.

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide according to the equation: 50°C 2 N2O5(g) 4 NO2(g) + O2(g) follows first-order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.0065 s-1. If the initial concentration of N2O5 is 0.275 M, determine: the final concentration of N2O5 after 180 seconds. ...
Don't used hand raiting
CS2(g) →CS(g) + S(g) The rate law is Rate = k[CS2] where k = 1.6 × 10−6 s−¹. S What is the concentration of CS2 after 5 hours if the initial concentration is 0.25 M?
