The correct Answer is:
To convert the compound \( CH_3-CHCl-CHCl-CH_3 \) to \( CH_3-C \equiv CNa \) using \( NaNH_2 \) in liquid ammonia, we need to analyze the reaction step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Starting Compound The starting compound is \( CH_3-CHCl-CHCl-CH_3 \). It has two chlorine atoms attached to the second carbon. ### Step 2: First Reaction with \( NaNH_2 \) In the first step, we will use one mole of \( NaNH_2 \) to remove one of the chlorine atoms and one hydrogen atom from the adjacent carbon. This will result in the formation of a double bond (alkene) and the release of \( HCl \). **Reaction:** \[ CH_3-CHCl-CHCl-CH_3 + NaNH_2 \rightarrow CH_3-CH=CH-CH_3 + HCl \] ### Step 3: Second Reaction with \( NaNH_2 \) Next, we will use another mole of \( NaNH_2 \) to remove the second chlorine atom and a hydrogen atom from the adjacent carbon. This will convert the alkene into an alkyne. **Reaction:** \[ CH_3-CH=CH-CH_3 + NaNH_2 \rightarrow CH_3-C \equiv C-CH_3 + HCl \] ### Step 4: Final Reaction to Form the Desired Product Finally, we will use one more mole of \( NaNH_2 \) to generate the sodium salt of the alkyne. **Reaction:** \[ CH_3-C \equiv C-CH_3 + NaNH_2 \rightarrow CH_3-C \equiv CNa + NH_3 \] ### Conclusion In total, we used 3 moles of \( NaNH_2 \) to convert \( CH_3-CHCl-CHCl-CH_3 \) to \( CH_3-C \equiv CNa \). ### Final Answer The number of moles of \( NaNH_2 \) required is **3 moles**. ---
