Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.65SP
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The three isomers of benzenedicarboxylic acid are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Isomers are defined as molecules having the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms. Geometrical isomers are those isomers which show isomerism due to the presence of restricted rotation in a molecule.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The melting point of three isomers of benzenedicarboxylic acid is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Isomers are defined as molecules having the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms. Melting point of para isomers is generally higher than ortho and meta isomers.
