Textbook Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.22QP
Catalytic cracking is an industrial process used to convert high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons to low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons. A petroleum company has a huge supply of heating oil stored as straight-chain C17H36, and demand has picked up for shorter chain hydrocarbons to be used in formulating gasoline. The company uses catalytic cracking to create the shorter chains necessary for gasoline. If they produce two molecules in the cracking, and 1-octene is one of them, what is the formula of the other molecule produced? As part of your answer, draw the condensed structural formula of the 1-octene.

I need help with the following two problems, understanding them in a simple manner. Can you please draw them out for me with a detailed explanation so that I can better comprehend? I'm a visual person, so I definitely need that. Thank you very much!
Problem 54, could you please explain it in detail? Thank you! Step by step, I'm really confused, so please don't make it overly complex. My question is to visually draw it out and demonstrate it to me; I'm confused about that problem, please (not just in words) but demonstrate it to me in all due essence (visually) with descriptions.
