The alternative resonance structure for each of the given compounds that all the six membered rings correspond to Kekule forms of benzene is to be written. Concept introduction: In the Kekulé structure of notation, all the covalent bonds in the compounds are indicated by the lines and does not include lone pairs or formal charge. This gives rise two possible structures. Two adjacent carbon atoms are joined by a single bond in one structure while the same two adjacent carbon atoms are joined by a double bond in the other structure. For benzene there two Kekulé structures, that they have the same connectivity of the atoms, but different arrangement of π electrons. This shows that the two Kekulé structures are the resonance forms.

Dr. Mendel asked his BIOL 260 class what their height was and what their parent's heights were. He plotted that data in the graph below to determine if height was a heritable trait. A. Is height a heritable trait? If yes, what is the heritability value? (2 pts) B. If the phenotypic variation is 30, what is the variation due to additive alleles?

Experiment: Each team will be provided with 5g of a mixture of acetanilide and salicylic acid. You will divide it into three 1.5 g portions in separate 125 mL Erlenmeyer flasks savıng some for melting point analysis. Dissolve the mixture in each flask in ~60mL of DI water by heating to boiling on a hotplate. Take the flasks off the hotplate once you have a clear solution and let them stand on the bench top for 5 mins and then allow them to cool as described below. Sample A-Let the first sample cool slowly to room temperature by letting it stand on your lab bench, with occasional stirring to promote crystallization. Sample B-Cool the second sample 1n a tap-water bath to 10-15 °C Sample C-Cool the third sample in an ice-bath to 0-2 °C Results: weight after recrystalization and melting point temp. A=0.624g,102-115° B=0.765g, 80-105° C=1.135g, 77-108 What is the percent yield of A,B, and C.
