Reaction Scheme

a.

Draw the displayed formula of Compound Y.

[1]
b.

Name the mechanism for Reaction 2 and state an essential condition to ensure that the primary amine, CH3CH2CH2NH2\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{NH}_2CH3​CH2​CH2​NH2​, is the major product.

[2]
c.

Calculate the mass, in grams, of CH3CH2CH2NH2\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{NH}_2CH3​CH2​CH2​NH2​ produced from 24.6 g24.6\text{ g}24.6 g of CH3CH2CH2Br\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{Br}CH3​CH2​CH2​Br in Reaction 2 assuming a 72.0%72.0\%72.0% yield. Give your answer to 3 significant figures. (Relative atomic masses: H=1.0\text{H} = 1.0H=1.0, C=12.0\text{C} = 12.0C=12.0, N=14.0\text{N} = 14.0N=14.0, Br=79.9\text{Br} = 79.9Br=79.9)
