Question
Chapter 2, Problem 3Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The statement '' water not used to extinguish most fires in an organic laboratory" should be explained. Also, the safety issues with the given scenario should be explained.
Concept introduction:
The interaction of water and organic compounds makes them unusable as a fire control measure in an organic laboratory. Organic compounds are generally lighter than water and thus float on water. When water is used as a control measure to put out fire the fire is spread due to the flow of water.
An organic laboratory is guided to follow a set of precautious measures which helps in reducing the risks of accident breakout. These measures include use proper disposal and aeration of labs.

What is the practical importance of distillation in relation to pharmaceutical and medicinal organic chemistry?
I do NOT understand the answer. Here is the official answer to the problem. Explain the answer in a clear step-by-step fashion to me. Explain the answer provided in the image in a clear fashion and as if I did not know much about organic chemistry. Can you demystify or simplify this problem? Explain all of your steps in a clear and sequential/straightforward manner.
Predict the organic products that form in the reaction below:
HO- +
H*
X
H+
Note: You may assume you have an excess of either reactant if the reaction requires more than one of those molecules to form the products.
In the drawing area below, draw the skeletal ("line") structures of the missing organic products X and Y. You may draw the structures in any arrangement that
you like, so long as they aren't touching.

- Alcohols are very useful starting materials for the production of many different compounds. The following conversions, starting with 1-butanol, can be carried out in two or more steps. Show the steps (reactants/catalysts) you would follow to carry out the conversions, drawing the formula for the organic product in each step. For each step, a major product must be produced. (See Exercise 62.) (Hint: In the presence of H+, an alcohol is converted into an alkene and water.
