Chapter 20, Problem 2E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The type of radioactive decay that has net effect of changing neutron to proton and proton to neutron needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Radioactive decays are process of converting unstable atomic nucleus to smaller stable fragments. This happens only when there is imbalance of number of protons and neutrons in atomic nucleus releasing energy in the form of radiation. These radiations are mostly alpha, beta and gamma. Alpha particles have two neutrons and two protons. Beta decay will occur causing conversion of proton to neutron or neutron to protons. Whereas in gamma ray emission, there is loss or gain of electrons or neutrons.

Heating an alcohol in the presence of sulfuric or phosphoric acid will cause a dehydration to occur: the removal of the elements of water from a molecule, forming an alkene. The reaction usually follows an E1 mechanism. The SN1 pathway is suppressed by using a strong acid whose conjugate base is a poor nucleophile. Further, heating the reaction mixture causes a greater increase in the rate of E1 compared to the rate of Sy1. 3rd attempt h Draw curved arrow(s) to show how the alcohol reacts with phosphoric acid.
