2a) a) Increasing the difference between the sample mean and the original. The z score represents the distance of each X or score from the mean. If the distance between the sample mean and the population mean the z score will increase. b) Increasing the population standard deviation. The standard deviation is the factor that is used to divide by in the equation. the bigger the SD‚ then the smaller the z score. c) Increasing the number of scores in the sample.

We began our research by treating chalcone 1a (??) with acetylacetone 2a (??) in the presence of morpholine as the base (??) in CH3CN at 80 ºC for 12 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the disappearance of the starting material and the formation of 1-(5-benzoyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-2‚3-dihydrofuran-3-yl)ethanone 3a. this reaction mixture‚ containing the 2‚3-dihydrofuran 3a generated in situ‚ was treated with sulfur element (??) in the presence of base of morpholine (??) at 80°C and the desired
