Explanation:

In the Baeyer-Villiger reaction, we will produce an ester from a ketone (see the first reaction). In our case, the ketone is Acetophenone therefore phenyl acetate would be produced.

Now, for the mass calculation, we have to keep in mind that we have a reaction with a 1:1 ratio. So, if we have 0.02 moles of acetophenone and 0.036 moles of m-CPBA the limiting reagent would be the smallest value in this case acetophenone.

Additionally, if we have a 1:1 ratio and the limiting reagent is 0.02 moles of acetophenone we will have as product 0.02 of phenyl acetate, if we take into account the molar mass of phenyl acetate (136.05 g/mol), we can do the final calculation:

I hope it helps!

that's what i got you can count the number of atoms

the awnser is group 12
