Interpretation:
A line formulas for all primary, secondary, or tertiary free radicals having molecular formula
Concept introduction:
A carbon atom with three bonds and one unpaired electron is called a carbon radical.
The stability order of a carbon radical is Methyl < Primary < Secondary < Tertiary.
The methyl carbon radical is bonded to three hydrogen atoms.
The primary carbon radical is bonded to two hydrogen atoms.
The secondary carbon radical is bonded to one hydrogen atom.
The tertiary carbon radical does not have hydrogen attached.
Constitutional isomers having the same molecular formula differ in the order in which their atoms are connected.

- Given the reaction R + Q → P, indicate the rate law with respect to R, with respect to P and with respect to P.arrow_forwardSteps and explanations. Also provide, if possible, ways to adress this kind of problems in general.arrow_forwardk₁ Given the reaction A B, indicate k-1 d[A] (A). the rate law with respect to A: (B). the rate law with respect to B: d[B] dt dtarrow_forward
- k₁ Given the reaction R₂ R + R, indicate k-1 (A). the rate law with respect to R2: (B). the rate law with respect to R: d[R₂] dt d[R] dtarrow_forwardGiven the reaction R+ Q → P, indicate (A). the rate law with respect to P: (B). the rate law with respect to R: (C). the rate law with respect to Q: d[P] dt d[R] dt d[Q] dtarrow_forwardThe reaction for obtaining NO2 from NO and O2 has the rate equation: v = k[NO]2[O2]. Indicate which of the following options is correct.(A). This rate equation is inconsistent with the reaction consisting of a single trimolecular step.(B). Since the overall order is 3, the reaction must necessarily have some trimolecular step in its mechanism.(C). A two-step mechanism: 1) NO + NO ⇄ N2O2 (fast); 2) N2O2 + O2 → NO2 + NO2 (slow).(D). The mechanism must necessarily consist of three unimolecular elementary steps with very similar rate constants.arrow_forward
- a. What is the eluent used in the column chromatography here (a “silica plug filtration” is essentially a very short column)? b. The spectroscopy of compound 5b is described in the second half of this excerpt, including 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR (which you will learn about in CHEM 2412L), MS (which you will learn about later in CHEM 2411L) and IR. One of the IR signals is at 3530 cm-1. What functional group does this indicate might be present in compound 5b?arrow_forwardSteps and explanations. Also provide, if possible, ways to adress this kind of problems in general.arrow_forwarda. The first three lines of this procedure describe the reaction used to make compound 5b. In the fourth line, hexane and sodium bicarbonate are added. What organic lab technique is being used here? b. What is the purpose of the Na2SO4? c. What equipment would you use to “concentrate [a solution] under reduced pressure”?arrow_forward
- When N,N-dimethylaniline is treated with bromine both the ortho and para products are observed. However when treated with a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid only the meta product is observed.
