Please solve the given and explain 

Consider the bleach oxidation of 3-pentanol to 3-pentanone shown below.
5% aq. NaOCI
(2.2 equiv.)
HOAc (15 M
OH
3-pentanol
FW 88.15 g/mol
d. 0.815 g/mL
3-pentanone
FW 86.13 g/mol
d. 0.813 g/mL
a) Liquids are often 'measured by volume. Convert 30. mmol of 3-pentanol to mL.
b) If 30. mmol of 3-pentanol is oxidized to 3-pentanone using the same procedure from this
experiment, calculate the theoretical yield of 3-pentanone in grams.
