The mechanism for this reaction involves the following steps: Diethyl malonate reacts with ethoxide ion to form enolate anion 1; 3-Hexene reacts with a peroxyacid to form epoxide 2; Enolate anion 1 reacts with epoxide 2 to form malonate alkoxide 3; Malonate alkoxide 3 reacts to form tetrahedral intermediate 4; Tetrahedral intermediate 4 collapses to form lactone 5; Lactone 5 reacts with aqueous base to form carboxylate 6; Carboxylate 6 reacts with aqueous acid to form the final product. Work out the mechanism on a separate sheet of paper, and then draw the structure of carboxylate 6.

219 grams of iron (iii) oxide reacts with excess carbon according to the reaction equation shown below. fe2o3 + c → fe + co2 after a scientist performs the chemical reaction they find the actual yield of iron to be 57.4 grams. calculate the percent yield of this chemical reaction.

Hot air balloons float in the air because of the difference in density between cold and hot air. in this problem, you will estimate the minimum temperature the gas inside the balloon needs to be, for it to take off. to do this, use the following variables and make these assumptions: the combined weight of the pilot basket together with that of the balloon fabric and other equipment is w. the volume of the hot air inside the balloon when it is inflated is v. the absolute temperature of the hot air at the bottom of the balloon is th (where th> tc). the absolute temperature of the cold air outside the balloon is tc and its density is ďc. the balloon is open at the bottom, so that the pressure inside and outside the balloon is the same. as always, treat air as an ideal gas. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Tin has ten stable isotopes. the heaviest, 124sn, makes up 5.80% of naturally occuring tin atoms. how many atoms of 124sn are present in 82.0 g of naturally occurring tin? what is the total mass of the 124sn atoms in this sample?
