Chemistry: An Atoms First Approach
- Catalytic cracking is an industrial process used to convert high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons to low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons. A petroleum company has a huge supply of heating oil stored as straight-chain C17H36, and demand has picked up for shorter chain hydrocarbons to be used in formulating gasoline. The company uses catalytic cracking to create the shorter chains necessary for gasoline. If they produce two molecules in the cracking, and 1-octene is one of them, what is the formula of the other molecule produced? As part of your answer, draw the condensed structural formula of the 1-octene.arrow_forwardExplain why stearic acid has higher melting point than decanoic acid. Explain why salicylic acid has higher melting point than benzoic acid. Explain why benzoic acid has higher melting point than stearic acid. Explain why octane has a higher melting point than isooctane. Explain why 2,2,3,3-tetramethylbutane has the highest melting point among the three isomers of C8H18arrow_forwardPolychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) are chemicals formed by attaching one or more chlorine atoms to a pair of connected benzene rings. (a) Summarise the adverse health effects associated with exposure to PCBs. (b) With a suitable illustration, explain the action of PCBs toxicity.arrow_forward
- Define about Chain-Growth Polymers—Addition Polymers ?arrow_forwardDuring our lectures on polymeric materials, I used polyethylene as an example because of its very straightforward structure. Draw a diagram of a long-chain molecule of polyethylene that consists of six units (or mers) of ethylene along with the starting and endpoint OH-. Include bonds in your diagram.arrow_forwardThe following is a structural diagram for penicillin G, an antibiotic compound with outstanding antibacterial activity. It is obtained from the liquid filtrate of molds. HO H H H C-C N- H Penicillin G can be described as an Organic Co -N- organic inorganic CH₂ H CH₂ -COOH compound. One functional group found in penicillin G is the ◆ grouparrow_forward
- Organic compounds may have characteristic odors as well as other characteristic physical properties. For example, the distinct odor of the seashore at low tide results in part from the presence of dimethyl sulfide (CH3SCH3), a molecule with a similar structure to dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3). Ethanethiol (CH3CH2SH), also called mercaptan, is an isomer of dimethyl sulfide with a much less pleasant odor.The table lists four related compounds and their enthalpies of vaporization (ΔH°vap) in kJ/mol. Compound ΔH°vap (kJ/mol) CH3OCH3 23 CH3SCH3 28 CH3CH2SH 27.5 CH3CH2OH 42 Rank the following compounds in order of increasing strength of their intermolecular forces, given the ΔH°vap listed for each. Place the compound with the strongest intermolecular forces (IMFs) at the top of the list. (Strongest to weaknest). Why is ΔHºvap for CH3SCH3 greater than ΔHºvap for CH3OCH3? A. CH3OCH3 is more polar. B. CH3SCH3 has stronger dipole–dipole attractions. C. CH3OCH3 can form…arrow_forwardAdenine and guanine are the members of a class of molecules known as purines; they have two rings in their structure. Thymine and cytosine, on the other hand, are pyrimidines and have only one ring in their structure. Predict which have larger dispersion forces in aqueous solution.arrow_forwardThis is on Achieve (the homework website)arrow_forward
- Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has received much recent attention because the lactic acid monomer [CH3CH(OH)COOH] from which it is made can be obtained from carbohydrates rather than petroleum. This makes PLA a more “environmentally friendly” polyester. (A more in-depth discussion of green polymer synthesis is presented in Chapter 30.) Draw the structure of PLA.arrow_forwardGlucose, C6H12O6, contains an aldehyde group but exist predominantly in the form of the cyclic hemiacetal show below. A cyclic hemiacetal is formed when the —OH group of one carbon bonds to the carbonyl group of another carbon. Identify which carbon provides the —OH group and which provides the —CHO? Give a functional isomer of glucose and draw its structure.arrow_forwardBriefly Differentiate between Tg and Tm polymers.arrow_forward
