Chapter 5, Problem 5.3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The working of barometer and whether the column of mercury in a barometer is shorter when it is present on top of the mountain or at sea level should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

An instrument or a device which is used to measure the atmospheric pressure is known as barometer. In another language, barometer is used to measure the pressure of air because it varies with the distance either above or below the level of sea. Barometer is of two types that are Mercury barometer and Aneroid barometer. The most commonly used barometer is mercury barometer.

Show the full mechanism of how the molecule ((1E, 3E, 5E)-1-methoxyhepta-1,3,5-triene) is built using substitution and elimination reactions. You can start with an alkane of any carbon length with any number of leaving groups attached or with a alkoxide of any carbon length (conjugate base of an alcohol). Show each step and and explanation for each reaction. Also include why the reagents and solvents were picked and what other products can be expected.
Problems 1. Acids (11) and (12) were both made by Grignard addition to CO2 rather than by cyanide displacement (p T 80). Why? (11) -CO2H MeO- (12) CO,H
