b. 2,3-dimethyl-2-hexene.

c. 2,4-dimethyl-2-hexene.

d. 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene.

e. more than one of these choices is a possible answer.

2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of and

Explanation:

In ozonolysis (hydrolysis step involve a reducing agent such as Zn, etc.), a pi bond is broken to form ketone/aldehyde.

Ketone is formed from di-substituted side of double bond and aldehyde is formed from mono-substituted side of double bond.

Ozoznolysis involves two consecutive steps : (1) formation of ozonide, (2) hydrolysis of ozonide.

Hydrolysis can be done with/without using reducing agent. Carboxylic acid/carbon dioxide/ketone is produced when hydrolysis is done without using reducing agent.

Here, 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of and

Reaction steps are shown below.

pure water does not conduct electricity very well. however, when certain substances are dissolved in water, the solution does conduct electricity. you can make a simple device that shows how well a solution conducts electricity. this device uses a flashlight bulb to indicate how well the solution conducts electricity. the better the solution conducts electricity, the brighter the bulb will glow.

a
