Interpretation: The explanation corresponding to the given statement, “the homolysis of the
Concept introduction: The formation of carbocation, carbanion and free radical occur due to the heterolysis or homolysis process. Homolysis is opposite to the heterolysis. It forms radical with an unpaired electron.
Resonance is the delocalisation of
(b)
Interpretation: The reason for the shorter
Concept introduction: The bond length is inversely related to the bond strength. Bond length is defined as the distance between the centers of the nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule. It is determined by bond order. The increasing

- Draw the structure of the major organic product(s) of the reaction. H₂C. CH₂ O 1.2 CH₂MgBr, ether 2. H₂0*arrow_forwardFor each of the following processes predict the sign of AS for the reaction. In other words, will AS sys be positive (an increase in entropy) or negative (a decrease in entropy)? AS sys is expected to be positive (an increase in entropy) because one molecule is converted into two molecules. AS sys is expected to be negative (a decrease in entropy) because a cyclic compound is converted into acyclic compounds. O AS sys is expected to be positive (an increase in entropy) because an acyclic compound is converted into cyclic compounds. O AS sys is expected to be negative (a decrease in entropy) because two molecules are converted into one molecule.arrow_forward11. Draw the structure for the molecule that would yield the products shown below under the indicated reaction conditions. Br 1 molar eq HBr -78 °C 1 molar eq HBr 50 °C Brarrow_forward

- Solve the attached file?arrow_forwardConsider the reaction of two compounds 'A' and 'B' which could make two possible diastereomers 'AB' and 'BA' (much like this week's Diels Alder reaction). Reaction pathway 1: A + B → AB E, = 12.0 kJ/mol AG = -30.0 kJ/mol Reaction pathway 2: A + B – BA E = 13.0 kJ/mol AG=-21.7 kJ/mol a a) Which of the two products (A or B) will form in greater abundance under thermoydynamic control? Which will form in greater abundance under kinetic control? Explain your responses using a sketch of the reaction coordinate diagram for the reactions described above. b) Assuming kinetic reaction control, how much more of the kinetically favored product will form (as a percentage of the total product) when the reaction is run to completion at 275 K? Show your calculation. c) Assuming thermodynamic reaction control, how much more of the thermodynamically favored product will form (as a percentage of the total product) when the reaction is run to completion at 450K? Show your calculation.arrow_forwardRefer to the reaction below. In step 2, what is the substance added to the product of step 1? alpha-Napthanol Orcinol Resorcinol Furfuralarrow_forward
