Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Given that cyclopropanone is highly reactive because of the large angle strain in the molecule. Methylcyclopropenone, although even more strained than cyclopropanone, is quite stable and can even be distilled. Taking the polarity of the carbonyl group into account this observation is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Carbonyl group is polar as oxygen is more electronegative than carbon. According to Huckel’s rule, any specie that is cyclic, planar and has (4n+2) Ï€ electrons will be
To explain:
Taking into account the polarity of the carbonyl group, the observation that cyclopropanone is highly reactive because of the large angle strain in the molecule while methylcyclopropenone, although even more strained than cyclopropanone, is quite stable and can even be distilled.

- 3. An unknown element, X, combines with chlorine to give a substance with the formula XC14. A chlorine analysis of the substance indicates that it contains 83.47% chlorine by mass. What element is X and what is the formula of this compound? (Hint: to identify an element or compound, identify its molar mass. Remember that Molar Mass = (grams A)/(moles A). Solve for each individually and then divide them to find molar mass.)arrow_forward1. When hydrogen sulfide (H2S, MM = 34.08 g/mol) gas is bubbled into a solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH, 40.00 g/mol), sodium sulfide (Na2S, 78.04 g/mol) and water (18.02 g/mol) are produced according to the balanced chemical equation shown below?

Recently, however, MTBE has been found in the drinking water of a number of communities. As a result several states are phasing out the use of MTBE as a fuel additive. A combustion experiment using 10.00 g of MTBE was found to produce 24.97g of CO2 and 12.26 g of H2O. (a) What is the empirical formula of MTBE assuming it contains C, H, and O only?
