A task is assigned to an undergraduate student to test two samples (known as compounds K and L) in the laboratory. She placed these two compounds through various scientific tests. She discovered that these compounds have the same molecular formula, C8H8O. When treated with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, all of these compounds produce brightly coloured precipitate, and both are reduced to an organic compound with the molecular formula C8H10O. However, compound K can be easily oxidized by chromic acid to formed compound N and vice versa for compound L. Furthermore, when both compounds reach with Fehling's solutions, they produce negative results. However, only compound K forms a silver mirror when it reacts with Tollen's reagent, and compound L does not.
Identify the possible formulae for compounds K, L, and N by ignoring their possible isomerism.
Indicate the formation of compound N from compound K.
Predict the chemical reaction that occurs when compound L reacts with…

- Although benzene is normally written with three double bonds, benzene is not reactive towards many reagents that alkenes normally react with. This lack of reactivity can be explained by the unusual stability created by cyclic conjugation. First, (i) describe at least one of the physical properties of benzene that demonstrates how the true structure of benzene does match the way the structure is normally written. Then, (ii) explain how the unusual stability of benzene can be demonstrated by its thermodynamic properties through some form of experiment. Be sure to (iii) include an appropriately labeled diagram as part of your answer (you do not have to quote any numerical values).arrow_forward(a) suggest the suitable mechanism and illustrate the stepwise of the (heptyloxy)cyclopentane mechanism.
