2‑Butanone is converted into 3‑methyl‑3‑hexanol using a Grignard reagent prepared from 1‑bromopropane and magnesium metal in THF solution. List the procedural steps required to collect the alcohol product by microdistillation.

1. Decant the THF solution into -25mL round-bottom flask

Explanation:

1. Decant the THF solution into -25mL round-bottom flask.

2. Add boiling chips to the solution in round-bottom flask.

3. Grease all joints and attach the flask to a micro distillation apparatus.

4. Set apparatus in heating mantle and use heat shield tiles.

5. Adjust variac to distill THF at -60°C.

6. Increase variac setting to cause distillation of higher-boiling product.

7. Stop distillation before the flask becomes dry.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.

the answer would be a
