The total number of alkenes possible by dehydrobromination of 3-bromo-3-cyclopentylhexane using alcoholic \(\mathrm{KOH}\) is
- A 5
- B 10
- C 15
- D 20
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) 5
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The substrate has three different types of \(\mathrm{B}-\mathrm{H}\), therefore, first, three structural isomers of alkenes are expected as

The last two alkenes II and III are also capable of showing geometrical isomerism hence two geometrical isomers for each of them will be counted giving a total of five isomers.

The last two alkenes II and III are also capable of showing geometrical isomerism hence two geometrical isomers for each of them will be counted giving a total of five isomers.

Copper is the most noble of the first row transition metals and occurs in small deposits in several countries. Ores of copper include chalcanthite \(\left(\mathrm{CuSO}_4 \cdot 5 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)\), atacamite \(\left(\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{Cl}(\mathrm{OH})_3\right)\), cuprite \(\left(\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)\), copper glance \(\left(\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{~S}\right)\) and malachite \(\left(\mathrm{Cu}_2(\mathrm{OH})_2 \mathrm{CO}_3\right)\). However, 80\% of the world copper production comes from the ore chalcopyrite \(\left(\mathrm{CuFeS}_2\right)\). The extraction of copper from chalcopyrite involves partial roasting, removal of iron and self-reduction.
