When 5-bromo-1-pentanol is treated with sodium hydride in diethyl ether, the product is analyzed to be c5h10o. propose a likely structure for this product, suggesting a reasonable mechanistic pathway for its formation.?

The alcohol is likely to be first deprotonated by the strong base, generating an alkoxide ion, which can then undergo intramolecular SN2 reaction to afford the observed product, a cyclic ether. Cl .. OH .. NaH H2 Cl .. + O : Na .. O NaCl

What do you need with it’s not a question your just stating what it says

Answerthis solution will not form a precipitateexplanationsolubility equilbrium:         pbf₂(s)  ⇄ pb²⁺(aq) + 2 f⁻(aq)the solubility product expression is    (we exclude solids from the equilibrium expression).now suppose we have the trial ion product q, which we can define as    then, we can interpret  q as the product of the concentration of the ions that we have and ksp as the product of the ion concentrations that are needed to form a saturated solution.if q > ksp, then that implies that there will be a surplus of ions that exceed the amount that is required to form a saturated solution. a precipitate will then form (the precipitate continually  forms until the surplus ions are removed and q is decreased to ksp's value).if q = ksp, the saturated solution that forms is barely saturated and the precipitate will be minimal.if q < ksp, then the ion concentration will not be enough to form a saturated solution (so no precipitate).using our information, we calculate the trial ion product:     since q = 2.7  × 10⁻⁸ < ksp =  4  ×  10⁻⁸, a precipitate will not form.
