give the groups in order of priority highest to lowest using greater than signs between them. So it would look like S, OH>NH2>CH3

Transcribed Image Text:The image displays five molecular structures labeled 1 to 5. Each structure consists of a central carbon atom (C) bonded to various other atoms or groups. Here is a detailed explanation of each:
1. **Structure 1:**
- Central carbon (C) atom is bonded to four different atoms/groups:
- Fluorine (F)
- Bromine (Br)
- Hydrogen (H)
- Iodine (I)
2. **Structure 2:**
- Central carbon (C) atom is bonded to:
- Hydrogen (H)
- Bromine (Br)
- Chlorine (Cl)
- Methyl group (CH₃)
3. **Structure 3:**
- Central carbon (C) atom is bonded to:
- Sulfur (S)
- Hydrogen (H)
- Methyl group (CH₃)
4. **Structure 4:**
- Central carbon (C) atom is bonded to:
- Cyanide group (CN)
- Hydroxyl group (OH)
- Hydrogen (H)
- Aminomethyl group (CH₂NH₂)
5. **Structure 5:**
- Central carbon (C) atom is bonded to:
- Hydroxymethyl group (HOH₂C)
- Carboxyl group (COOH)
- Hydrogen (H)
- Alkynyl group (HC≡C)
These structural formulas represent different organic compounds, showcasing the diversity of chemical bonding in organic molecules. Each unique combination of atoms and groups around the carbon atom contributes to differing chemical and physical properties.
Expert Solution

Step 1
Here priority will be given according to atomic number . Higher the atomic number higher will be priority. In case of isotopes priority will be according to atomic mass higher the atomic mass higher will be priority.
1. I >Br>F >H
