Alkanes and Cycloalkanes

Alkanes are saturated organic compounds which are made up of C and H atoms. Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2. Alkane contains sp3 hybridized carbon atoms with four sigmas (σ) bonds & every hydrogen atom is connected with one of the carbon atom…

There are three compounds with the molecular

formula C.,H,,Br₂. Two of these are polar and have a dipole, and one has no dipole (it is not polar). Draw structural formulas for these three compounds and explain why two are polar and the third is not.

a. The structure of the bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) ion, HCO3-, HCO3 " is best described as a hybrid of several contributing resonance forms, two of which are shown here. HO :0: HO + :Ö: Bicarbonate is crucial for the control of body pH (for example, blood pH 7.4). A more self-indulgent use is in baking soda, where it serves as a source of CO2 CO2 gas, which gives bread and pastry their fluffy constituency. (i) Draw at least one additional resonance form. = (ii) Using curved "electron-pushing" arrows, show how these Lewis structures may be interconverted by movement of electron pairs. (iii) Determine which form or forms will be the major contributor(s) to the real structure of bicarbonate, explaining your answer on the basis of the criteria in Section 1-5.

Calibri 11 + BIL NAME: Jaylena M A student is investigating the ctect of volume on pressure during a lab activity. The student uses the following volumes (mL). 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 28, 30, 33, 34, 35, 38, 40, 42, 44. 46, and 50. As the volume changed they measured the following pressures (atm) 11.0, 10.5, 10.0, 9.2. 8.5, 78, 75, 7.0, 6.8, 6.5, 6.0, 5.9, 5.5, 5.0, 4.8, 4.5, 4.2, 3.9, 3.8, 3.5, 3.3, 3.2, 3.0, 2.9.
