(a)
Interpretation:
The five resonance structures of the carbocation intermediate of trans-cinnamyl chloride are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Most of the organic structures cannot be represented using a single Lewis structure. Therefore, there exists more than one Lewis structure for representing a molecule or ion. These structures are known as resonance structures.
(b)
Interpretation:
The two structurally isomeric products formed in the
Concept introduction:
The compounds that have the same molecular formula but have different connectivity of molecules are termed as constitutional isomers. The constitutional isomers are also known as structural isomers. These compounds consist of the same chemical formula but the sequence of atoms to each other is different.
(c)
Interpretation:
The method by which the identification of two alcohol products using UV spectroscopy is done is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Spectroscopy method is used to identify the structure of the molecule. It is based on the interactions between matter and
(d)
Interpretation:
The structure of compound A is to be drawn and explained.
Concept introduction:
