A ketone and a Grignard reagent react in ether solution followed by acid workup, to form a tertiary alcohol. Grignard reactions must be scrupulously dry in order to work effectively. A common method of drying glassware is to rinse with acetone prior to use.
1. Why is rinsing with acetone not suitable for the reaction stated in the question?a)Magnesium does not dissolve in acetone. b)Water dissolves in acetone. Adding acetone will add water to the reaction flask. c)Magnesium dissolves in acetone. Adding acetone will remove a vital reactant from the flask. d)Acetone is a ketone. Grignard reagents will react with acetone to make an unwanted byproduct.

Which common material is an example of a polymer? (25 pts) a. steel b. plastic c. petroleum d. rubbing alcohol

Solutions of sodium carbonate and silver nitrate react to form solid silver carbonate and a solution of sodium nitrate. a solution containing 3.50 g of sodium carbonate is mixed with one containing 5.00 g of silver nitrate. how many grams of sodium carbonate, silver nitrate, silver carbonate, and sodium nitrate are present after the reaction is complete?

What is the relationship between wind and ocean waves? question 17 options: wind moving at higher speeds will transfer more energy to the water, resulting in stronger waves. wind moving at higher speeds will transfer energy over a larger part of the ocean water, resulting in waves with a shorter wavelength. winds moving at higher speeds with cause water to move forward at faster rates, causing larger ocean waves. winds moving at higher speeds will affect deeper water, resulting in waves that move at a faster rate. how do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? question 15 options: as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.
