Chapter 26, Problem 1E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structural formula for ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH(CH}}_3{\text{)CH}}_2{\text{CBr}}_2{\text{CH}}_2{\text{CHClCH}}_3$ should be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The formula which represents the bonding and type of bonds that hold the atoms in a molecule together is said to be a structural formula.

Answer to Problem 1E

Explanation of Solution

There is a difference between structural formula and condensed formula.

The formula which represents the bonding and type of bonds that hold the atoms in a molecule together is said to be a structural formula.

In condensed structural formula, the organic structures of the compound are written in a line of text showing all the atoms in the molecule and omitting the vertical and horizontal bonds.

The structural formula for ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH(CH}}_3{\text{)CH}}_2{\text{CBr}}_2{\text{CH}}_2{\text{CHClCH}}_3$ is:
