Optically pure Compound 1 undergoes a reaction at room temperature with sodium methoxide (NaOCH3) in methanol to form a single isomer of Compound 2 as shown below: 3. The rate of the above reaction is determined experimentally to follow second-order kinetics. Give a fully labelled sketch of a reaction coordinate diagram for the reaction. 4. draw a mechanism on a piece of paper (using curly arrows) to show the formation of Compound 2 from Compound 1 including any activated complex.

You found a bottle of aqueous solution in the laboratory cabinet. Unfortunately, the label has been eroded and you could not recognize it. To the best of your recollection, it may be one of the following solutions:  HCl  CH3COOH  CH3CH2COOH  A mixture of HF and NaF (both of substantial amount)  A mixture of H3PO4 and NaH2PO4 (both of substantial amount)  NH4Cl  NaHCO3 In order to identify the solution, you conduct the following experiments: Using a pH meter, you determine the pH of the solution to be 3.00. You dilute 20 mL of the solution with water to a total volume of 200 mL and measure the pH again, this time it reads 3.50. You take some volume of the solution, add phenolphthalein, and titrate it with NaOH solution until the mixture turns pink. You record the volume of the required titrant as Vt and the pH meter reads 9.05. In a separate flask, you take the same volume of the unknown solution as in step iii and titrate it with the same NaOH…
