Concept Introduction:
Oxidation: If electrons are moved from a species during a
Reduction: If electrons are gained to a species during a chemical reaction. The species which gets electrons are said to be reduced.
Redox reaction: It occurs when oxidation and reduction takes place at the same time in a chemical reaction.
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass (atoms) is neither created nor destroyed during a reaction. This implies that the number of atoms in the reactant side should be equal to the number of atoms in the product side. Therefore, it is necessary to represent the equation in a balanced form, such that the number of atoms on both sides of the reaction is equal.

You can start with an alkane of any carbon length with any number of leaving groups attached or with a alkoxide of any carbon length (conjugate base of an alcohol). Show each step and and explanation for each reaction. Also include why the reagents and solvents were picked and what other products can be expected.arrow_forwardProblems 1.
