Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Chemical symbol for mercury has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Every element has a unique name and in most cases it was selected by the person who discovered it. For an element, abbreviation known as chemical symbol also exist for all elements name. Chemical symbol is simply one- or two-letter designation given for an element that is derived from the name of element. Chemical symbols occupy less space compared to chemical names.
In a chemical symbol, the first letter is always capitalized while the second letter is present in lower case. Two-letter chemical symbols are often the first two-letters of the chemical name of an element. Some elements symbol are derived from the Latin name of the element.
(b)
Interpretation:
Chemical symbol for chlorine has to be given.

- Hello! I have a 500 Hz H-NMR for 1,5-bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-penta-1,4-dien-3-one. I need to label the signals with the corresponding H's. Then, find out if the two alkenes are cis or trans by calculating the J values. I believe that I have the H-NMR labeled correctly, but not sure if I got the J values correct to determine if the two alkenes in the compound will make the compound cis or trans.arrow_forwardWhat is the only possible H-Sb-H bond angle in SbH3?arrow_forwardpls helparrow_forward
