Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Moles of propylene = 100 moles, = 300 K
= 800 K,
,
of propylene = 100 J/mol
Now, we assume the following assumptions:
Since, it is a compression process therefore, work will be done on the system. And, work done will be equal to the heat energy liberating without any friction.
W =
=
= 5 MJ
Thus, we can conclude that a minimum of 5 MJ work is required without any friction.
Hi, you have not provided structure of the aldehyde and alkoxide ion.
Therefore i'll show a mechanism corresponding to the proton transfer by considering a simple example.
Explanation: For an example, let's consider that proton transfer is taking place between a simple aldehyde e.g. acetaldehyde and a simple alkoxide base e.g. methoxide.
The hydrogen atom attached to the carbon atom adjacent to aldehyde group are most acidic. Hence they are removed by alkoxide preferably.
After removal of proton from aldehyde, a carbanion is generated. As it is a conjugated carbanion therefore the negative charge on carbon atom can conjugate through the carbonyl group to form an enolate which is another canonical form of the carbanion.
All the structures are shown below.
