Question
Chapter 30, Problem 30.41P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The mechanism for the given reaction is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: In biological reactions, allylic carbocations are the intermediates that are required for the formation of Farnesyl diphosphate.
The general steps involved in the biological formation of Farnesyl diphosphate are stated below.
➢ The first step is the generation of allylic carbocation by the loss of the diphosphate group.
➢ The second step is the nucleophilic attack of isopentyl diphosphate to form new bond.
➢ The third step is the deprotonation to give final product.

We will derive the forms of the molecular partition functions for atoms and molecules shortly in class, but the partition function that describes the translational and rotational motion of a homonuclear diatomic molecule is given by Itrans (V,T) = = 2πmkBT h² V grot (T) 4π²IKBT h² Where h is Planck's constant and I is molecular moment of inertia. The overall partition function is qmolec Qtrans qrot. Find the energy, enthalpy, entropy, and Helmholtz free energy for the translational and rotational modes of 1 mole of oxygen molecules and 1 mole of iodine molecules at 50 K and at 300 K and with a volume of 1 m³.
