Chapter 15, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason should be identified for the classification of cyclohexanol as a secondary alcohol and cyclohexanamine as a primary amine.

Concept Introduction:

The primary carbons are those carbons which are attached to one another carbon. Secondary carbons are those carbons, which are attached to two another carbons. Tertiary carbons are those carbons, which are attached to three another carbons.

Write the chemical equation for a pentanoate ion acting as base when it reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCI). Which is formula of this rule of reaction?
You were tasked to propose a structure for a compound with a chemical formula of C₂H₂N. In the laboratory, the compound appears as a clear, colorless liquid. To determine the structure of the compound, you subject the compound to several solubility tests and chemical tests. The observations for these tests are summarized: SOLUBILITY GROUP: Group V Insoluble in water and 10% NaOH but soluble in 10% HCI FUNCTIONAL GROUP/CLASS: Amine 1) Based on the results of the solubility tests and chemical tests, what is the most probable structure of C7H9N? Draw your answer in the box below. You may draw the compound using line-bond formula OR Lewis structure. |
