Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reduction or oxidation processes that are occurring in the reaction are to be determined.

Concept introduction: The term oxidation means loss of electrons and reduction means a gain of electrons. The entity which gets oxidized attains a positive charge on the atom and reduced gets a negative charge on the atom.

1. Most margarines have been hydrogenated to maintain a soft, homogeneous mixture. While the product is easy to spread, this has made the product an unhealthy choice. A hydrogenation reaction is used to convert an alkene to an alkane. a carboxylic acid to an aldehyde. an alkene to a ketone an aromatic hydrocarbon to a linear hydrocarbon
Question 5: The name of compound A in Figure 5 is 1-(butan-2-yl)-3- methylcyclohexane. Use this information to determine the IUPAC name of compound B. [Numbers are separated by commas and numbers and letters by hyphens Use lower case letters and do not use spaces.] * Your answer Figure 5 Question 6: Which of the alkenes in Figure 6 can exist both as a cis and trans A.
Mark the correct statements about the structural features of alkenes and alkynes. *         A- Free rotation is not possible around a double or triple bond.         B- A triple bond is shorter and stronger than a double bond.         C- A pi-bond can only form by overlap of p-orbitals on adjacent atoms if these atoms are from the same element.         D- The pi-bond in an alkene is weaker than the sigma bond because the sideways overlap of p-orbitals is less than the head-to-head overlap of sp² hybrid orbitals.         E- All the bond angles in an alkyne are 180°.
