Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The free-energy diagram for the reaction of A converted into B without formation of intermediates is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The free energy diagram of a reaction is the plot of standard free energy versus reaction coordinate or reaction progress. The products and reactants are placed at their respective free energy. The difference in the free energy of products and reactants is the standard free energy of the reaction.
(b)
Interpretation:
The free energy of activation for the reverse reaction of
Concept introduction:
The free energy diagram of a reaction is the plot of standard free energy versus reaction coordinate or reaction progress. The products and reactants are placed at their respective free energy. The difference in the free energy of products and reactants is the standard free energy of the reaction.

- An organic compound A of unknown structure was found to have a molecular formula C8H16. When A was poured in water and heated, compound B having a molecular formula C8H18O was formed. B upon heating with sulfuric acid was converted to C as the major product which is identical to A. Ozonolysis of C gave one molecule each of two different products D and E, both having a molecular formula C4H8O.
