(a)
To determine: The number of isoprene units in the given terpene and identification of the terpene as a monoterpene, sesquiterpene or diterpene.
Interpretation: The number of isoprene units in the given terpene and identification of the terpene as a monoterpene, sesquiterpene or diterpene are to be stated.
Concept introduction: An isoprene unit is bunched of five-carbon atoms. In terpenes, the isoprene units are connected to each other in head to tail fashion. The head part of an isoprene unit is branched, whereas the tail part of an isoprene unit is un-branched.

- Can you please help me and explain how I would find a mechanism consistent, using my results. Help with number 5.arrow_forwardThe conversion of (CH3)3CI to (CH3)2C=CH2 can occur by either a one-step or a two-step mechanism, as shown in Equations [1] and [2]. [1] + I + H₂Ö: :OH [2] q slow :OH + I¯ H₂Ö: a. What rate equation would be observed for the mechanism in Equation [1]? b. What rate equation would be observed for the mechanism in Equation [2]? c. What is the order of each rate equation (i.e., first, second, and so forth)? d. How can these rate equations be used to show which mechanism is the right one for this reaction? e. Assume Equation [1] represents an endothermic reaction and draw an energy diagram for the reaction. Label the axes, reactants, products, Ea, and AH°. Draw the structure for the transition state. f. Assume Equation [2] represents an endothermic reaction and that the product of the rate-determining step is higher in energy than the reactants or products. Draw an energy diagram for this two-step reaction. Label the axes, reactants and products for each step, and the Ea and AH° for each…arrow_forwardSteps and explanations.
