Concept introduction:
All aromatic compounds are derivatives of benzene. The benzene ring accounts for six carbon atoms. The remaining carbons can be attached as alkyl group like methyl, ethyl etc. to the benzene ring. Halogens, if present, can be attached to the benzene ring or to a side chain in the molecule.
Monosubstituted benzenes are named by adding the name of the substituent to the parent name benzene. Alkyl-substituted benzenes, called arenes, are named in different ways depending on the size of the alkyl group. If the alkyl group is smaller than the ring (six or fewer carbons), the arene is named as an alkyl-substituted benzene. If the alkyl substituent is larger than the ring (seven or more carbons), the arene is named as a phenyl-substituted
Disubstitutedbenzenes can exist as three isomers such as ortho, meta and para. They are named using the prefixes ortho (o), meta(m) and para (p). An ortho-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,2-relationship on the ring. A meta-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,3-relationship on the ring. A para-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,4-relationship on the ring. While writing the name the substituent groups are arranged alphabetically.

The dominant macrostate or configuration of a system is the macrostate with the greatest weight W. Are both statements correct?arrow_forwardFor the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state. In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy.arrow_forward
