Chapter 3, Problem 18P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Various products formed from the pyrolysis of butane with regard to only C – C bond cleavage as initial step should be written.

Concept introduction: Long-chain petroleum hydrocarbons can be broken down unless highly elevated temperatures are used. At extremely elevated temperature the C–C bond and C – H undergoes homolytic cleavage. This process generates radicals and is essentially the first step of pyrolysis. If no oxygen is available the radical formed in initial phase may recombine with one another and result in variety of alkanes. For example, the pyrolysis of hexane occurs via homolytic fission of either C1–C2 or C2–C3 or C3–C4. The radicals generated undergo combinations as illustrated below:

Thus the products have new covalent bonds formed as results of electrons contributed from different atoms.

In the Thermo Fisher application note about wine analysis (Lesson 3), the following chromatogram was collected of nine components of wine. If peak 3 has a retention time of 3.15 minutes and a peak width of 0.070 minutes, and peak 4 has a retention time of 3.24 minutes and a peak width of 0.075 minutes, what is the resolution factor between the two peaks?
