Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.14P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The list of organic compound present in immediate environment should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the substances containing most commonly carbon atoms bonded in covalent bonds with other atoms like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen etc. The presence of organic compounds is everywhere and surrounds us in many substances. Earth’s crust contains carbon in group of element which is only present as 0.9% in it.

Acetaminophen, a popular painkiller, has the following structure:
Name the recognizable functional groups in this molecule. Do you think there are other groups of atoms in this molecule that might qualify as functional groups?
Name 5 common organic compounds that are found in your home. Draw their Lewis structures and give their molecular formula. Encircle and identify the functional group/s that is/ are present in each molecule. Write your answers in another sheet of paper.
C5H12 has 3 structural isomers
C6H14 has 5 structural isomers
C7H16 has 9 structural isomers.
I get what a structural isomer is, but when I see a statement like the 3 statements above, I wonder if there is a way I can figure out how many structural isomers something has? I'm in CHEM 2. We didnt talk about that but when I see a slide he has telling me this, and I am wondering what to take from the slide...hmmm.
