Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation: A dotted line that connects each partial positive charge density to nearby partial negative charge density should be drawn.
Concept introduction: Electronegative elements have tendency to attract electrons towards it. Since electrons are shared more towards electronegative element, it acquires partial negative charge on it. As a result, other bonded atom forms a partial positive charge.
b)
Interpretation: The reason for the higher boiling point of
Concept introduction: Dipole moment is the measure of bond polarity in a molecule. It is defined as product of charge and distance of separation between opposite charges. Polar molecules consist of dipole moments due to presence of charges in them, whereas non-polar molecules do not have dipole moments. Boiling is used to define when a substance gets converted from its liquid to vapor phase at the boiling point. The temperature at which the vapor pressure of liquid and atmospheric pressure becomes equal is called boiling point.

Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry
- Consider an organic molecule with the molecular formula C13H10O. a. Propose a chemically correct structure for this molecule that contains a ketone. b. Propose a chemically correct structure for this molecule that contains a functional group other than a ketonearrow_forward4. Show the steps necessary, in order, to make each of the following compounds. Start with benzene, and use only reactions we studied this semester. -NO₂ a) b) Br -COH ·Porarrow_forwardConstitutional isomers are compounds which have the same molecular formula but different structural formulae. They are different compounds with different physical and chemical properties.a. Rearrange your model of n-hexane to make as many possible isomers of C6H14 as you can. Draw the structural formula and write down the IUPAC name for each isomer that you make.b. Constitutional isomers can also have different functional groups. Make all possible isomers of C3H8O. Write down the structural formulae and IUPAC names for all the compounds you make. Hint: Consider alcohol and ether functional groups.arrow_forward

A saturated hydrocarbon with molecular formula C6H14arrow_forwardFacts are stated in the table below about three common alcohols. Each alcohol has at most 3 carbon atoms per molecule. In the third column of the table, write the systematic (IUPAC) name of each alcohol. Also, in the drawing area below the table draw the chemical structure of 3. (You can draw a condensed or skeletal structure, whichever you prefer.) Part 1 of 2 alcohol 1 2 3 Part 2 of 2 some facts By far the greatest use of this alcohol is in "alcoholic" beverages such as beer, wine, and spirits. But it's also used as a minor ingredient in over-the-counter medications like cough syrup. This poisonous alcohol is a typical major component of car antifreeze. This alcohol is not safe to eat or drink, but it is often used topically (e.g. on the skin) in the clinical setting because it is a good disinfectant and has a lower toxicity than similar light alcohols.
