(a)
Interpretation:
IUPAC name has to be determined for the given compound.
Concept Introduction:
A common nomenclature of naming organic compounds has been developed by IUPAC. By usage of this nomenclature or rules, memorizing of names of organic compounds is not necessary.
IUPAC rules for naming
There are about five rules that has to be followed for naming an alkane and they are,
- The longest continuous carbon chain in the compound has to be identified. This is known as parent compound. From this the parent name is obtained. Suffix “–ane” (for alkane) is added at the end of the prefix which gives information about the number of carbon atoms.
- Numbering has to be done so that the lowest number is given to the first group that is encountered in the parent chain.
- Naming and numbering has to be given for each atom or group that is attached to the parent chain. Numbering has to be done in a way that substituents get the least numbering.
- If the same substitution is present in the parent chain more than once, a separate prefix is added which tells about the number of times the substituent occurs. Prefixes used are di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- etc.
- Name of the substituents has to be placed in an alphabetical order before the parent compound name.

- Use the literature Ka value of the acetic acid, and the data below to answer these questions. Note: You will not use the experimental titration graphs to answer the questions that follow. Group #1: Buffer pH = 4.35 Group #2: Buffer pH = 4.70 Group #3: Buffer pH = 5.00 Group #4: Buffer pH = 5.30 Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, the buffer pH provided and the literature pKa value of acetic acid to perform the following: a) calculate the ratios of [acetate]/[acetic acid] for each of the 4 groups buffer solutions above. b) using the calculated ratios, which group solution will provide the best optimal buffer (Hint: what [acetate]/[acetic acid] ratio value is expected for an optimal buffer?) c) explain your choicearrow_forwardHow would you prepare 1 liter of a 50 mM Phosphate buffer at pH 7.5 beginning with K3PO4 and 1 M HCl or 1 M NaOH?
