Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using the given transformation, the structural formulae for isoborneol and camphor are to be deduced.

Concept introduction:

The secondary alcohols on oxidation with strong oxidizing agent chromic acid form ketone.

The reduction of the asymmetric ketone gives isomers of the secondary alcohol.

The borneol and isoborneol are stereoisomers.

Give the oxidation products of the following reactions
Another source of phosphorus in water is known as organic phosphorus which commonly finds its way into natural bodies of water from human and animal waste and food residues. If you wish to measure the phosphorus content due to organic matter in the water sample using the vanadomolybdophosphoric acid method, you must first "digest" the sample to convert the organic phosphorus to orthophosphate. O True O False
Ethyl ethanoate (commonly called ethyl acetate), CH3CO₂C₂H5, is an important solvent used in nail polish remover, lacquers, adhesives, the manufacture of plastics, and even as a food favoring. It is produced from acetic acid and ethanol by the reaction CH3CO₂H + C₂H5OH CH³CO₂C₂H5 + H₂O ethanoic acid (acetic acid) ethanol ethyl ethanoate (ethyl acetate) At 25 °C, Kc = 4.10 for this reaction. In a reaction mixture, the following equilibrium concentrations were observed: [CH3CO₂H] = 0.318 M, [H₂O] = 0.00671 M, and [CH3CO₂C₂H5 ] = 0.702 M. What was the concentration of C₂H5OH in the mixture? [C2₂H5OH] = M
