a)
Interpretation:
The structure of the
Concept introduction:
- The longest continuous ring of carbon atoms is identified. The prefix is added with ‘cyclo’.
- The substituent groups attached to the parent chain is identified. A substituent group contains group of atoms attached to the carbon atom of the chain.
- While numbering the longest chain, the substituent should get least possible number.
- Write the name of the compound; the parent name written as last part of the name. The name of the substituents is written as prefix and a hyphen separates the number that the substituents attached with carbon. More than one substituent should be written in alphabetical order.
b)
Interpretation:
The structure of cis-2-butene has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
IUPAC Nomenclature of
- The longest continuous chain of carbon atoms is identified.
- The substituent groups attached to the parent chain is identified. A substituent group contains group of atoms attached to the carbon atom of the chain.
- While numbering the longest chain, the substituent should get least possible number.
- Write the name of the compound; the parent name written as last part of the name. The name of the substituents is written as prefix and a hyphen separates the number that the substituents attached with carbon. More than one substituent should be written in alphabetical order.
Geometric isomers of Alkenes:
Cis-isomer: When two particular atoms (identical group of atoms) are adjacent (on same side) to each other, the alkene is known as cis-isomer.
Trans-isomer: When two particular atoms (identical group of atoms) are opposite from each other, the alkene is known as trans-isomer.
c)
Interpretation:
The structure of 2-hexanol has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
IUPAC Nomenclature of alkanes:
- The longest continuous chain of carbon atoms is identified.
- The substituent groups attached to the parent chain is identified. A substituent group contains group of atoms attached to the carbon atom of the chain.
- While numbering the longest chain, the substituent should get least possible number.
- Write the name of the compound; the parent name written as last part of the name. The name of the substituents is written as prefix and a hyphen separates the number that the substituents attached with carbon. More than one substituent should be written in alphabetical order.
d)
Interpretation:
The structure of 1,4-dibromobenzene has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
IUPAC Nomenclature of
- The parent compound of aromatic compound is Benzene.
- The substituent groups attached to the parent is identified. A substituent group contains group of atoms attached to the carbon atom of the aromatic ring.
- While numbering the parent, the location of the second group relative to the first substituent uses prefixes like o-ortho (1,2-), m-meta (1,3-), and p-para (1,4) in disubstituted aromatic ring.
e)
Interpretation:
The structure of 2-butyne has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
IUPAC Nomenclature of
- The longest continuous chain of carbon atoms is identified. The suffix is added replaced with ‘yne’.
- The substituent groups attached to the parent chain is identified. A substituent group contains group of atoms attached to the carbon atom of the chain.
- While numbering the longest chain, the substituent should get least possible number.
- Write the name of the compound; the parent name written as last part of the name. The name of the substituents is written as prefix and a hyphen separates the number that the substituents attached with carbon. More than one substituent should be written in alphabetical order.

- personality of each of them in terms of nucleophile vs. electrophile (some can be considered acids/bases but we are not looking at that here). Note you may have to use your growing intuition to figure out the personality of one of the molecules below but I believe in you! Rationalize it out based on what we have called strong versus weak electrophiles in past mechanisms. Consider using the memes below to help guide your understanding!

- The fire releases 2.80 x 107 Joules of heat energy for each liter of oil burned. The water starts out at 24.5 °C, raising the water's temperature up to 100 °C, and then raises the temperature of the resulting steam up to 325 °C. How many liters of water will be needed to absorb the heat from the fire in this way, for each 1.0 liter of crude oil burned? 4186 J/(kg°C) = heat of water 2020 J/(kg°C) = heat of steam 2,256,000 (i.e. 2.256 x 106) J/kg = latent heat of vaporization for water (at the boiling point of 100 °C).arrow_forward6 Which of the following are likely to be significant resonance structures of a resonance hybrid?
