The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the chlorination of the given hydrocarbon in the presence of sunlight and the subsequent fractional distillation, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Reactant The reactant is pH-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH3, which is a derivative of toluene (methylbenzene). ### Step 2: Understand the Reaction The reaction involves chlorination in the presence of sunlight (hv), which indicates a free radical substitution mechanism. In this process, chlorine (Cl2) will replace hydrogen atoms from the alkyl chain (the part of the molecule that is not aromatic). ### Step 3: Determine Possible Products Since the chlorination can occur at different positions on the alkyl chain, we will consider the following positions: 1. Chlorination at the terminal CH3 group (producing pH-CH(CH2Cl)-CH2-CH3) 2. Chlorination at the CH2 group (producing pH-CH(CH3)-CH(Cl)-CH3) 3. Chlorination at the second CH3 group (producing pH-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2Cl) Each of these products can potentially have stereoisomers if they have chiral centers. ### Step 4: Identify Chiral Centers 1. The product from the second position has a chiral center (pH-CH(CH3)-CH(Cl)-CH3). 2. The product from the third position also has a chiral center (pH-CH(CH2Cl)-CH2-CH3). ### Step 5: Count the Total Products - The first product (no chiral center) contributes 1. - The second product (with a chiral center) contributes 2 (enantiomers). - The third product (with a chiral center) contributes 2 (enantiomers). - The fourth product (no chiral center) contributes 1. Adding these together gives: 1 (from the first product) + 2 (from the second) + 2 (from the third) + 1 (from the fourth) = 6 total products. ### Step 6: Determine the Number of Fractions from Fractional Distillation Fractional distillation will separate the products based on their boiling points. Since we have: - 1 product without a chiral center, - 2 enantiomers from the second product, - 2 enantiomers from the third product, - 1 product without a chiral center, This results in a total of 4 distinct fractions (the two enantiomers from the chiral centers are counted separately). ### Final Answers - Number of products: 6 - Number of fractions: 4 ### Summary Thus, the final answer to the question is: - Number of products: **6** - Number of fractions: **4**
