Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the reactant

The reactant is a cyclohexyl thiol.

Step 2: Oxidation of thiols

Oxidation of thiols forms disulfides. Two thiol molecules combine, losing their hydrogen atoms and forming a sulfur-sulfur bond.

Step 3: Draw the disulfide product

The disulfide product will have two cyclohexyl groups connected by a disulfide (S-S) bond.

Calculate each derivative. If f(x) = 1/x^4 + 1/x^7 then f'(x) = -(4 / x^5) - (7 / x^8) If g(x) = -1/(3 x^0.3) then g'(x) = 0.1 / x^1.3 If h(x) = 3/x - 3/x^7 + 1/x^3 then h'(x) = -(3 / x^2) + (21 / x^8) - (3 / x^4)
