Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The three- dimensional representation of the oxygen-bearing carbon atom in ethanol, CH3CH2OH, using the standard convention of solid, wedged and dashed lines is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

To draw the structure of a tetrahedral carbon attached to four atoms or groups using solid, wedged and dotted lines certain conventions are used. The solid line is used to represent the bonds present in the plane of the paper, heavy wedged line is used to represent a bond coming out of the plane of the paper and the dotted line is used to represent a bond going back behind the plane of the paper.

To determine:

The three- dimensional representation of the oxygen-bearing carbon atom in ethanol, CH3CH2OH, using the standard convention of solid, wedged and dashed lines.

A trace evidence analyst places crystals of an unidentified white powder onto the stage of a polarizing microscope and observes the crystals through the eyepiece.Under correct focus, some of the crystals show brightcolors while others appear very dark and hardly distinguishable. What can be concluded about the contents ofthe white powder?
Each sketch below shows three objects with an electric charge. In each case, decide whether there is a net force acting on the object outlined in green. If there is a net force, decide whether it pushes the green-ring object to the left or right. Then select the appropriate button under the sketch. For example, if there is a net force pushing the green-ring object in the first sketch to the left, select the left button under the first sketch. If there is no net force on the green-ring object in the second sketch, select the middle button under the second sketch.
