(a)
Interpretation:
Whether or not secondary and tertiary carbon atoms are present in the structures given has to be indicated.
Concept Introduction:
In a hydrocarbon structure, each and every carbon atoms are classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary carbon atom.
If a carbon atom in an organic molecule is directly bonded to only one another carbon atom is known as primary carbon atom.
If a carbon atom in an organic molecule is directly bonded to two other carbon atoms is known as secondary carbon atom.
If a carbon atom in an organic molecule is directly bonded to three other carbon atoms is known as tertiary carbon atom.
If a carbon atom in an organic molecule is directly bonded to four another carbon atom is known as quaternary carbon atom.
These carbon atoms are denoted by notations as,

Organic And Biological Chemistry
- How many secondary carbon atoms are present in each of the structures in Problem 12-96? a. b. c. d.arrow_forward11-48 How are the boiling points of hydrocarbons during petroleum refining related to their molecular weight?arrow_forwardAs stated in Section 11-9, the wax found in apple skins is an unbranched alkane with the molecular formula C^H^. Explain how the presence of this alkane in apple skins prevents the loss of moisture from within the apple.arrow_forward
- Alcoholic beverages contain: a. wood alcohol. b. isopropyl alcohol. c. glyceryl alcohol. d. ethyl alcohol.arrow_forward14 What type of organic molecule is this? ketone O alcohol aldehyde organic acid I- I- I-0–Iarrow_forwardWhat group does the following organic compound belong? ОН CH3CHCHCH2CH3 ČH2CH2CH3 A. Ketone B. Aldehyde O C. Alkane D. Alcoholarrow_forward
- What is the reason why tertiary alcohols cannot be oxidized?arrow_forwardDefine Preparation of Alcohols ?arrow_forwardIndicate whether each statement is true or false. Pentane has higher molar mass than hexane. The longer the linear alkyl chain for straight-chain hydrocarbons, the higher the boiling point. The local geometry around the alkyne group is linear. Propane has two structural isomers.arrow_forward
- Classify each of the following hydrocarbons as saturated or unsaturated.a. CH3—CH2—CH3b. CH3—CH=CH2c. CH3—C≡CHd. CH3—CH=CH—CH3arrow_forwardFor each of the alkane structures in Problem 12-51, give the number of (a) primary, (b) secondary, (c) tertiary, and (d) quaternary carbon atoms present. a. b. c. d.arrow_forward
