Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The stepwise mechanism for the given reaction is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The removal of two substituents from a molecule either in one step or in two steps is called an elimination reaction.

The general steps involved in acid catalyzed reaction are as follows:

• First step is the protonation of alcohol group.

• The second step is the removal of OH2 group.

• The third step is the deprotonation.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The conversion of X into 16,17 dehydroprogesterone is to be shown.

Concept introduction: Ring-flipping converts equatorial bonds into axial bonds and axial bonds into equatorial bonds. The reduction of ketone into alcohol can be done by using reagent H2 in the presence of palladium.

The ability of atoms to associate with each other depends ona) the electronic structure and its spatial orientation.b) the electron affinity.c) The other two answers are correct.
What is the final volume after you reach the final temperature? I put 1.73 but the answer is wrong not sure why  The initial volume of gas is   1.60 LL  , the initial temperature of the gas is   23.0 °C°C  , and the system is in equilibrium with an external pressure of 1.2 bar (given by the sum of a 1 bar atmospheric pressure and a 0.2 bar pressure due to a brick that rests on top of the piston). Then, as you did in Exercise 1, you heat the gas slowly until the temperature reaches  48.2 °C
