Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Numbers are not used to designate the position of the functional group in propanone and butanedione this has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Any organic molecule can be named by using certain rules given by IUPAC (International Union for Pure and applied chemistry).IUPAC name consists of three parts, namely Prefix, suffix and root word.

Prefix- Represents the substituent present in the molecule and its position in the root name.

Suffix- Denotes the presence of functional group if any in the molecule.  It can be an alkene, alkyne, alcohol, carboxylic acid, alcohol etc.  To add suffix to name a compound, the suffix “-ane” in the parent alkane is replaced by the respective suffix, which corresponds to the functional group present in the given compound.  For carboxylic acid, suffix “-oic” will be added, for alcohol, suffix “-ol” will be added and so on

Root word - Represents the longest continuous carbon skeleton of the organic molecule.

The functional group in the aldehydes and Ketones are carbonyl group.

The given compound is an aldehyde (CHO), the compound name end up with al. The name of the compound is given according to the number of carbon atom.

please help and the percent recovery of clove oil from cloves is 4.61% and i have attached my ir spectrum as well. Based on your GC data, how many components are in the clove oil? Calculate the percentage of each component. Clearly show your work. Which of the components corresponds to eugenol? How do you know? Is eugenol the major component?
please help and i am so confused if the picture is the gc data or ir spectrum. you dont have to do everything just what you can please because i am lost and the mass of the cloves was Mass of cloves 62.299g. Mass of recovered clove oil 62.761g.
Which compound would you expect to have a higher decomposition temperature,Na2CO3 or Cs2CO3? Justify your answer, but you do not need to do any calculations.
