Chapter 16.10, Problem 1RC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In the increasing order of basicity, the given oxides have to be arranged.

Concept Introduction:

Oxides are elements that are bonded with oxygen molecules.

Acidic and basic properties of oxides:

  • All alkali and alkali earth metal oxides are basic oxides.
  • All mon-metallic oxides are acidic oxides.
  • Some alkali metals are amphoteric oxides which mean that they can act both as an acidic oxide as well as a basic oxide.

Basicity means the ability to share or donate electrons. When the atomic number of an atom increases, then it implies that the size of an atom increases. Consequently its electron affinity decreases. Ultimately the atom will be more likely to share or to donate electrons. Thus the basicity increases with the increasing atomic size.

1) The isoamyl acetate report requires eight paragraphs - four for comparison of isoamyl alcohol and isoamyl acetate (one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR) and four for comparison of acetic acid and isoamyl acetate ((one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR. 2) For MS, the differing masses of molecular ions are a popular starting point. Including a unique fragmentation is important, too. 3) For HNMR, CNMR and IR state the peaks that are different and what makes them different (usually the presence or absence of certain groups). See if you can find two differences (in each set of IR, HNMR and CNMR spectra) due to the presence or absence of a functional group. Include peak locations. Alternatively, you can state a shift of a peak due to a change near a given functional group. Including peak locations for shifted peaks, as well as what these peaks are due to. Ideally, your focus should be on not just identifying the differences but explaining them in terms of…
