Question
Chapter 16, Problem 38P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason that menthol is a solid and menthone is a liquid at room temperature should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The melting point of a chemical substance refers to the temperature at which it undergoes a transition from solid to the liquid state provided the pressure is normal. The molecules which have higher intermolecular attraction forces will have higher melting points as more energy is required for overcoming these internuclear forces of attraction.

PLEASE READ!!! I DONT WANT EXAMPLES, I DONT WANT WORDS OR PARAGRAPHS FOR THE MECHANISM!!! THANKS
First image: QUESTION 6. I have to show, with ARROWS and STRUCTURES, the mechanism of the reaction at the bottom. Also I have to show by mecanism why the reaction wouldn't work if the alcohol was primary.
I also tried to draw the mechanism, tell me what to change. Please note that its an AMIDE thats formed not an AMINE the nitrogen has ONE hydrogen and one Phenyl-C-Phenyl. I already asked for this mechanism and got as a final product ...-NH2 not whats shown on the picture, thank you
Ths second part. QUESTION 3. I just need a way to synthesize the lactone A, I already started please continue from where I left it
Second image: I simply need the products, substrates or reagents, thank you
Indicate how to prepare a 10% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution to a slightly alkaline pH.

A commercial oxygenated bleach is much safer to handle and less likely to ruin your clothes. It is possible to determine the amount of active ingredient in an oxygenated bleach product by performing a redox titration. The balance reaction for such a titration is: 6H+ +5H2O2 +2MnO4- à 5O2 + 2Mn2+ + 8H2O If you performed the following procedure: “First, dilute the Seventh Generation Non-Chlorine Bleach by pipetting 10 mL of bleach in a 100 mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with distilled water. Next, pipet 10 mL of the diluted bleach solution into a 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask and add 20 mL of 1.0 M H2SO4 to the flask. This solution should be titrated with 0.0100 M KMnO4 solution.” It took 18.47mL of the KMnO4 to reach the endpoint on average.
