Answer to Problem 70A
The structure of 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxylhexanal is,
Explanation of Solution
The compound 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxylhexanal is an aldehyde. Aldehydes are organic compounds that have a carbonyl carbon attached to atleast one hydrogen atom. The general formula of aldehyde is
The general structure of an aldehyde is,
Where,
In 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxylhexanal,
The parent chain is hexane (six carbon atoms), since it is an aldehyde it becomes hexanal.
The carbonyl carbon occupies the first position.
The prefix “penta-” in pentahydroxyl shows the presence of five-hydroxyl groups.
The substituent hydroxyl is placed in the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth positions.
The structure of 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxylhexanal is,
Conclusion
The structure of 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxylhexanal is,

- The reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH3)2N2H2, and liquefied dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been investigated for use as rocket fuel. The reaction produces the gases carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and water vapor (H2O), which are ejected in the exhaust gases. In a controlled experiment, solid dimethylhydrazine was reacted with excess dinitrogen tetroxide, and the gases were collected in a closed balloon until a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 400.0 K were reached.(a) What are the partial pressures of CO2, N2, and H2O?(b) When the CO2 is removed by chemical reaction, what are the partial pressures of the remaining gases?arrow_forwardOne liter of chlorine gas at 1 atm and 298 K reacts completely with 1.00 L of nitrogen gas and 2.00 L of oxygen gas at the same temperature and pressure.
