Markovnikov's rule can best be explained by considering * a) the number of hydrogen atoms attached to each of the double bond carbons atoms. b) the number of alkyl groups attached to each of the double bond carbons atoms. c) the relative stabilities of the carbocations that can be formed from the alkene. d) the spatial arrangement of the groups around the double bond. e) All of the above are good explanations for Markovnikov's rule.

Using Zaitsev's rule, choose the most stable alkene among the following. Draw out the structures of each of the options then select the correct answer. Recall that Zaitsev's Rule is about alkene stability. The trend for this is similar to the trend for carbocation stability. Either more or fewer groups on the alkene (and the carbocation) make it more stable. This question is wanting you to remember if it's more or fewer. A) 1,2-dimethylcyclohexene B) 1,6-dimethylcyclohexene C) cis-3,4-dimethylcyclohexene D) They are all of equal stability according to Zaitsev's rule. Provide the major dehydration product of the following reaction. Recall which of the four substitution and elimination reactions a dehydration is. Before you do your S# or EF mechanism, remember what heteroatoms do in the presence of an acid (aka-the-OH is a bad leaving group, but protonating it might turn it into a good one). Don't forget to apply the concept from the previous question. OH Ht A

2. A student named a compound as 3,3-dimethyl-4,4-diethylcyclohexa-1,5-diene. Even though one can draw a correct structure based on that name, the name itself is incorrect according to the IUPAC naming conventions. Draw a structure for the compound (based on the above name), and then name the compound correctly. Structure Correct Name
