6. A modified carboxyl group has several uses in cosmetics and perfumes industries
due to its property in secreting the pleasant odors. This organic compound can be
produced by a reaction of two different compounds.
Predict the chemical class of the modified carboxyl group.
Based on your answer above, display one example in detail, the complete
chemical reaction and all the chemical structures of all compounds involved
in the reaction.
(ii)
The following paragraph is a description of the fictional element melbournium (Mb).
Mb in its elemental form, is a solid at room temperature. There are 38 protons in its nucleus. The sample of Mb in my laboratory has 40 neutrons. Its electronegativity is 0.5. I have been told that there is only one other isotope of Mb with 38 neutrons (which is 50% abundant).
All the information you require about Mb to answer the questions below is supplied in the statement above (it is a fictional element, so it is not on The Periodic Table). Data for F (fluorine), mentioned below, can be sourced from the Periodic Table.
I. Determine the atomic number of Mb.
II. Determine the mass number of the isotope that I have in my lab.
III. Determine how many electrons are in Mb.
IV Write the full electronic configuration of Mb using the correct rules for the energy levels.
V. Will Mb gain or lose electrons (and how many) to form an octet? Why?
VI.…
