Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The Lewis structure of the molecule whose Newman projection is given is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
In a Newman projection, the bond of interest connecting the atoms is not shown. But the atoms connected are shown explicitly. The front atom is shown as a point while the back atom is shown as a circle. The atoms attached to the front carbon converge at the point while the atoms attached to the back carbon are shown connected to the circle.

Answer to Problem 4.1P
The Lewis structure of the molecule is:
Explanation of Solution
The given Newman projection is:
In this Newman projection, the front carbon atom is shown by a point. It is attached to two hydrogen atoms and a methyl group. The back carbon atom is shown by a circle. It is attached to three hydrogen atoms. Thus, in the Lewis structure, there will be a chain of three carbon atoms. The molecule is propane. Its Lewis structure is shown below:
The Lewis structure of the molecule is drawn as shown above.

Some of these techniques are:Distillation – this process is used to separate components that have significantly different boiling points. The solution is heated and the lower boiling point substance is vaporized first. The vapor can be collected and condensed and the component recovered as a pure liquid. If the temperature of the mixture is then raised, the next higher boiling component will come off and be collected. Eventually only non-volatile components will be left in the original solution.Centrifugation – a centrifuge will separate mixtures based on their mass. The mixture is placed in a centrifuge tube which is then spun at a high speed. Heavier components will settle at the bottom of the tube while lighter components will be at the top. This is the technique used to separate red blood cells from blood plasma.Sieving – this is…arrow_forwardBriefly describe a eutectic system.arrow_forward
