Question
Chapter 15, Problem 15.49P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Fischer projection for the given ball and stick model needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Fischer Projection is a method of drawing 3-D structures of organic molecules in 2D nature. In this method, all non-terminal bonds are depicted as horizontal or vertical lines.
For a simple molecule consists of one chiral center with four different groups attached (e.g. CHClBrI), the Fischer projection method uses a cross formula to draw the two bonds in the plane. In the Fischer projection, both horizontal bonds come forward (drawn on wedges) and both vertical bonds go behind (on dashed lines).

In the solid state, oxalic acid occurs as
a dihydrate with the formula H2C2O4
C+2H2O. Use this formula to
calculate the formula weight of oxalic
acid. Use the calculated formula
weight and the number of moles
(0.00504mol)
of oxalic acid in each titrated
unknown sample recorded in Table
6.4 to calculate the number of grams
of pure oxalic acid dihydrate
contained in each titrated unknown
sample.
1.
Consider a pair of elements with 2p and 4p valence orbitals (e.g., N and Se). Draw their
(2p and 4p AO's) radial probability plots, and sketch their angular profiles. Then, consider these
orbitals from the two atoms forming a homonuclear л-bond. Which element would have a
stronger bond, and why?
