Chapter 3.SE, Problem 52AP

Increased substitution around a bond leads to increased strain. Take the four substituted butanes listed below, for example. For each compound, sight along the C2-C3 bond and draw Newman projections of the most stable and least stable conformations. Use the data in Table 3-5 to assign strain-energy values to each conformation. Which of the eight conformations is most strained? Which is least strained?

(a) 2-Methylbutane

(b) 2,2-Dimethylbutane

(c) 2,3-Dimethylbutane

(d) 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential Ered +1.26 V. An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least 1.10 V of electrical power. The cell will operate under standard conditions. Note for advanced students: assume the engineer requires this half-reaction to happen at the anode of the cell. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have? If so, check the "yes" box and calculate the minimum. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. If there is no lower limit, check the "no" box.. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have? If so, check the "yes" box and calculate the maximum. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. If there is no upper limit, check the "no" box. yes, there is a minimum. 1 red Πν no minimum Oyes, there is a maximum. 0 E red Dv By using the information in the ALEKS…
