- 15) Give the IUPAC name for each compound.arrow_forwardMenthene, a compound found in mint plants, has the formula C10H18 and the IUPAC name 1-isopropyl- 4-methylcyclohexene. What is the structure of menthene?arrow_forwardPolyisobutylene, a synthetic high molecular weight alkane with many properties similar to polyethylene (Section 11.5A), is the principal component of Elastol, a product used to clean up oil spills. Elastol dissolves oil to form a thick mat that can be skimmed or suctioned from the surface. Explain why oil dissolves in Elastol.arrow_forward

- 1,4-Pentadiene (CH2=CH-CH2-CH=CH2) is a liquid at room temperature and has a density of 0.66 g/mL and molar mass of 68.12 g/mol. In a laboratory experiment, 3.80 mL of this compound was treated with 4.80 mL of conc. H2SO4 (100% w/w; molar mass 98.08 g/mol). Note that the density of conc. H2SO4 is 1.84 g/mL. The resulting sulfate ester was then treated with 1.20 mL of water (molar mass 18.02 g/mol) affording, after work- up, 2,4-pentanediol (molar mass 104.15 g/mol) as the crude product. The crude product was then purified by simple distillation, which yielded 2.00 g of pure product. What is the theoretical yield of 2,4-pentanediol expressed in grams? Show calculations. What is the percentage yield of pure 2,4-pentanediol?arrow_forward1,4-Pentadiene (CH2=CH-CH2-CH=CH2) is a liquid at room temperature and has a density of 0.66 g/mL and molar mass of 68.12 g/mol.
