7.(a) Compound X has the following percentage composition by mass:
C: 38.9% ; H: 5.4% ; Cl: 38.4%; O: 17.3%
(i) Calculate the empirical formula of X.
(Relative atomic mass of C = 12; H = 1; Cl= 35.5; O= 16.0)
C

Cl
% by mass of atoms
relative no. of mole of atoms
(= % by mass ÷ relative atomic mass)
simplest mole ratio of atoms
(divided by the smallest no. of mole)
The empirical formula of X is
(ii)
Find out the molecular formula of X if the relative molecular mass of X is 92.5.
(c) If X is an optically alkanal, give the structural formula
X and draw this pair of enantiomers.
Structural formula of X :
(b) If X has a C=C bond and a saturated OH group (i.e. The OH group does not attach to the C=C), give the
structural formula of X if X shows cis-trans isomerism. Draw the pair of cis-trans isomers.
Structural formula of X :
