Question
i got this question wrong, could you please give me the correct answer so i can use it to study?

Transcribed Image Text:### Reaction Mechanism and Curved-Arrow Notation
#### Initial Reaction Structures (Reactants)
- **Molecule A**:
- Structure: A carboxylic acid group with an additional single bonded hydrogen.
- Atoms: Contains a carbon with a double-bonded oxygen (C=O) and an OH group.
- Additional Groups: The carbon is bonded to a propyl group (CH2-CH2-CH3).
- **Molecule B**:
- Structure: A carbonyl group with no additional hydrogens bonded to the carbon.
- Atoms: Contains a carbon double-bonded to oxygen (C=O) with a single lone pair.
#### Final Reaction Structures (Products)
- **Molecule C**:
- Structure: Similar to Molecule B with a carboxylic acid structure.
- Atoms: Has a carbon doubly bonded to an oxygen (C=O).
- Additional Groups: Remains bonded to the same propyl group (CH2-CH2-CH3).
- **Molecule D**:
- Structure: Similar to an alcohol with no charge.
- Atoms: Contains an OH group with a hydrogen atom bonded.
#### Curved-Arrow Notation
- **Description**: The diagram below the reaction equation illustrates the electron flow using curved-arrow notation.
- **Electron Flow**:
- A curved arrow starts from the lone pair of electrons on the oxygen of Molecule A's OH group.
- The arrow points towards the hydrogen atom, indicating that the lone pair is forming a bond with the hydrogen.
- Another curved arrow starts from the bond between the hydrogen and oxygen in the OH group, pointing towards the oxygen in Molecule B, indicating the transfer of the hydrogen atom.
This notation shows the movement of electrons during the reaction, facilitating the conversion of reactants to products. Understanding this visual representation is crucial for deciphering reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry.

- Catra wanted to determine the concentration of copper(II) chloride at an unknown concentration .She began by trying to determine the value of epsilon (ε) using beers law for copper(II) chloride. Catra remembered in lab when they wanted to solve for epsilon they would test the absorbance for three different concentrations of a known solution and then graph it. Catra got frustrated and asked Shera what to do next to determine epsilon. What should Shera tell Catra?arrow_forwardis this a Z or E? and why is it.arrow_forwardI don't know this questionarrow_forward
