Interpretation:
Whether the statement.
The general name of an aliphatic
Concept Introduction:
Alkanoic acid is the IUPAC name of carboxylic acid.
- First choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms having carboxyl group known as parent chain.
- The numbering of parent chain should be done in a way that the carboxyl group and substituents get the lowest number.
- The root name of the carbon chain is “oic” acid.
- The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
- The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement.
A molecule containing two COOH groups is called a dicarboxylic acid is true or false.
Concept Introduction:
Carboxylic acids containing two COOH groups are known as dicarboxylic acid.
(c)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement.
Ethanedioic (oxalic acid) acid is the simplest dicarboxylic acid is true or false.
Concept Introduction:
Oxalic acid contains total two carbon atoms. It’s IUPAC name is ethanedioic acid, here dioic represents the two carboxyl groups.
(d)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement.
3-Methylbutanoic acid is chiral is true or false.
Concept Introduction:
Chiral molecules are those in which there are four different groups attached tetrahedrally.
(e)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement.
The simplest carboxylic acid is methanoic acid (common name: formic acid), HCOOH is true or false.
Concept Introduction:
Formic acid is a carboxylic acid with one carbon.
(f)

- 3. Propose a synthesis for the following transformation. Do not draw an arrow-pushing mechanism below, but make sure to draw the product of each proposed step (3 points). CN + En CNarrow_forward3) Propagation of uncertainty. Every measurement has uncertainty. In this problem, we'll evaluate the uncertainty in every step of a titration of potassium hydrogen phthalate (a common acid used in titrations, abbreviated KHP, formula CsH5KO4) with NaOH of an unknown concentration. The calculation that ultimately needs to be carried out is: concentration NaOH 1000 x mass KHP × purity KHP molar mass KHP x volume NaOH Measurements: a) You use a balance to weigh 0.3992 g of KHP. The uncertainty is ±0.15 mg (0.00015 g). b) You use a buret to slowly add NaOH to the KHP until it reaches the endpoint. It takes 18.73 mL of NaOH. The uncertainty of the burst is 0.03 mL.. c) The manufacturer states the purity of KHP is 100%±0.05%. d) Even though we don't think much about them, molar masses have uncertainty as well. The uncertainty comes from the distribution of isotopes, rather than random measurement error. The uncertainty in the elements composing KHP are: a. Carbon: b. Hydrogen: ±0.0008…arrow_forwardDon't used hand raiting and don't used Ai solutionarrow_forward

You have a stock solution certified by the manufacturer to contain 150.0±0.03 µg SO42-/mL. You would like to dilute it by a factor of 100 to obtain 1.500 µg/mL. Calculate the uncertainty in the two methods of dilution below.
