Concept Introduction:
Addition of H2gas to a multiple bond is known as hydrogenation. In the presence of palladium metal as the catalyst H2 molecules react with

Answer to Problem 75P
Explanation of Solution
When an aldehyde reacts with H2 gas in the presence of palladium metal resulting product is an alcohol of the initial aldehyde molecule. Palladium metal act as a catalyst to the reaction that provides a surface to bind both the H2 and carbonyl compound which reduce the activation energy of the reaction.
Hydrogen atoms in the alcohol molecule shown below, which are indicated in red color are the added H during the hydrogenation reaction.

Answer to Problem 75P
Explanation of Solution
In the presence of alcohol in the acidic medium, aldehydes undergo addition reactions and give acetal in two steps. In the first step aldehydes form hemiacetals and during the second step it converts to an acetal molecule of the respective aldehyde molecule.
Addition of one molecule of alcohol in to an aldehyde forms a hemiacetal, one bond of the

Concept Introduction:
In the presence of water and acid, acetals undergo hydrolysis reaction and produce aldehydes.
OR' groups in the acetal molecule shown below, which are indicated in red color are the molecules which becomes alcohol molecules during the hydrolysis.

Answer to Problem 75P
Explanation of Solution
Acetals are stable molecules, but their bonds can cleave by a reaction with water and produce aldehydes.
In the acetal molecule, two bonds of the

- 20. The Brusselator. This hypothetical system was first proposed by a group work- ing in Brussels [see Prigogine and Lefever (1968)] in connection with spatially nonuniform chemical patterns. Because certain steps involve trimolecular reac tions, it is not a model of any real chemical system but rather a prototype that has been studied extensively. The reaction steps are A-X. B+X-Y+D. 2X+ Y-3X, X-E. 305 It is assumed that concentrations of A, B, D, and E are kept artificially con stant so that only X and Y vary with time.
