Question
Chapter 20, Problem 10A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A small chain of carbon atoms attached to a longer chain of carbon atoms have to be defined.
Concept Introduction:
Alkanes can be classified as-
- Straight-chain alkanes
- Branched-chain alkanes
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 10A
A small chain of carbon atoms which is attached to a longer chain of carbon atoms are called substituents.
Explanation of Solution
A small chain of carbon atoms which is attached to a longer chain of carbon atoms are called substituents.
The examples of a linear alkane and a branched alkane are-
Here two methyl groups in 2,5-dimethylhexane structure are substituents. H-atoms in linear chain or parent chain are replaced by the substituents.
