(a)
Interpretation:
The alcohol that is needed as a starting material to prepare the following compound as a product should be determined:
Concept Introduction:
A
In a chemical reaction, the substance which is involved in conversion is said to be reactant whereas the newly formed substance is called a product. Both reactants and products must be separated by an arrow.
The oxidation reaction is the reaction that involves the addition of O atom in the presence of certain oxidizing agents such as
(b)
Interpretation:
Interpret the alcohol that is needed as a starting material to prepare given carbonyl compound by an oxidation reaction.
Concept Introduction:
A chemical reaction is the symbolic representation of the conversion of substances to new substances.
In a chemical reaction, the substance which is involved in conversion is said to be reactant whereas the newly formed substance is called a product. Both reactants and products must be separated by an arrow.
The oxidation reaction is the reaction that involves the addition of O atom in the presence of certain oxidizing agents such as
