Concept Introduction:
Fischer Esterification:
When an acid is reacted with an alcohol in presence of strong acid catalyst, it forms an ester.
The condensed formula is a way of representing an organic compound formula in a single line without the vertical bonds. In condensed formula each carbon atom is grouped with its hydrogens, but all bonds are not shown.
(b)
Interpretation:
The condensed formula for the carboxylic acid and alcohol that forms propyl benzoate has to be drawn.

- A mixture of C7H12O2, C9H9OCl, biphenyl and acetone was put together in a gas chromatography tube. Please decide from the GC resutls which correspond to the peak for C7,C9 and biphenyl and explain the reasoning based on GC results. Eliminate unnecessary peaks from Gas Chromatography results.arrow_forwardIs the molecule chiral, meso, or achiral? CI .CH3 H₂C CIarrow_forwardPLEASE HELP ! URGENT!arrow_forward
