(a)
Interpretation: The
Concept introduction: Functional groups are specific substituents present in the molecule that is responsible for the characteristic
(b)
Interpretation: The site at which pantothenic acid can form hydrogen bond to water molecule is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Hydrogen bonding is the strongest intermolecular forces present between the substances. A hydrogen atom participates in hydrogen bonding if it is bonded to an electronegative atom like fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.
(c)
Interpretation: The solubility of pantothenic acid in water is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The general rule of solubility is like dissolves like, in other words, polar compounds dissolve in polar solvents, and non-polar compounds dissolve in non-polar solvents.
The polar solvent such as water has partial

- Draw the structure of a compound of molecular formula C 9H 11NO that contains a benzene ring and a: (a) 1 ° amide; (b) 2 ° amide; (c) 3 ° amide.arrow_forwardQuestion -S1arrow_forwardBile salts are derivative of cholestrol. However, the solubilities of these compounds in water are drastically different; cholestrol is highly hydrophobic, and the bile salts are soluble in digestive juices. Explain the differences.arrow_forward
- Certain omega-3 fatty acids can be found only in animal sources, such as fatty fish. Two of these are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) [20:5] and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) [22:6], both of which are ω-3 fatty acids. DHA has been shown to be important in healthy brain development, so it has recently been added to infant formulas. Breast milk is rich in DHA as long as the mother maintains a healthy diet that includes fish. Draw skeletal structures of the fatty acids EPA and DHA.arrow_forward(a) Draw a skeletal structure of the anabolic steroid 4-androstene-3,17-dione, also called "andro," from the following description. Andro contains the tetracyclic steroid skeieton with carbonyl groups at C3 and C17, a double bond between C4 and C5, and methyl groups bonded to C10 and C13. (b) Add wedges and dashes for all stereogenic centers with the following information: the configuration at C10 is R, the configuration at C13 is S, and all substituents at ring fusions are trans to each other.arrow_forwardPropylamine (bp 48°C), ethylmethylamine (bp 37°C), and trimethylamine (bp 3°C) are constitutional isomers with the molecular formula C3H9N. Account for the fact that trimethylamine has the lowest boiling point of the three and propylamine has the highest.arrow_forward
- Draw the structure of a compound of molecular formula C4H11NO that fits each description: (a) a compound that contains a 1° amine and a 3° alcohol; (b) a compound that contains a 3° amine and a 1° alcohol.arrow_forwardEthyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring. It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l) Part A Given 7.30 gg of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100%% yield? Express your answer in grams to three significant figures. Part B A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.95 gg of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield? Express your answer as a percent to three significant figures. Part C The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0%% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.30 gg of…arrow_forwardEthyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple.
