1.what is the structure of the trans-3-hexane molecule.(how do you draw it?)
2.assuming there is enough energy to initiate a reaction with trans-3-hexane what is the structure and the name of the hydration product.
3. When exposed to air the product in question 2 becomes oxidized. what is the structure and name of this oxidation product?
4. Can the product in question 3 undergo further oxidation? explain please.
5. order the 3 molecules trans-3-hexane,the products in part 2 and 3 from the lowest to the highest boiling point.
when answering make sure you are positive with your answer please and thank you to all who answer!

1. CH3CH2CH=CHCH2CH3
Draw it with the H atoms on the C=C with one up and one down.
2. hexan-3-ol
3. hexan-3-one
4. No, ketones can't be oxidised further.
5. the alkene < the ketone < the alcohol
