(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of sodium isopropoxide is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The systematic naming of organic compound is given by
Rules for writing IUPAC name from structural formula are:
• First identify the longest carbon chain.
• The next step is to identify the groups attached to the longest chain.
• Identify the position, location, and number of the substituents bonded to the carbon chain.
• Use prefix di, tri, tetra if same type of substituents are present.
• Name the substituents in alphabetical order.

Answer to Problem 10.1P
The structure of sodium isopropoxide is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
The name of the compound sodium isopropoxide indicates that the compound is organic salt. The cation of the sodium isopropoxide is sodium ion and anion of this compound is isopropoxide ion. The isopropoxide ion has isopropyl group attracted to oxygen atom. The charge on isopropoxide ion is
