- Draw the structure of all compounds that t the following descriptions.a. ve constitutional isomers having the molecular formula C4H8b. nine constitutional isomers having the molecular formula C7H16c. twelve constitutional isomers having the molecular formula C6H12 and containing one ringarrow_forwardAlcohols with two or more - OH groups have higher boiling point.I. Alcohols with more than two -OH groups are more water soluble than similar alcohols with only one -OH group.A.BOTH statements are CORRECTB. BOTH statements are INCORRECTC. FIRST statement is CORRECT. SECOND is INCORRECT D.FIRST statement is INCORRECT, SECOND is CORRECT 2. l. An alcohol is an organic compound with at least one hydroxyl (-OH) group bound to unsaturated carbon atom. II. Alcohols have higher boiling points than corresponding alkynes.A.FIRST statement is CORRECT. SECOND is INCORRECTO FIRST statement is INCORRECT SECOND Is CORRECTAre INCORKI© bUlk statements are CORRECTIarrow_forward2.) Draw 1 isomer of the compounds in item no. 3, and state the type of isomerism. Example: 2-hydroxy-pentanal OH Structure: Isomer: он Type of isomerism: Functional Isomerismarrow_forward
- 2. Draw and name four alkenes with the formula C,Hg.arrow_forwardClassify each statement as a property of ethers, alcohols, or both ethers and alcohols. 1. These compounds cannot form hydrogen bonds between themselves, but they can form hydrogen bonds with other compounds containing an O−HO−H , N−HN−H , or F−HF−H bond, such as water.2. These compounds are water soluble if they have fewer than four carbon atoms.3. When comparing ethers and alcohols of similar molecular weights, these compounds have the higher boiling point. alcohols both ethers and alcohols ethersarrow_forward4. Draw possible structures for isomeric compounds with the molecular formula C6H10O that contain the following: a) an alkene b) a ketone c) an alcohol and a ringarrow_forward
- Make two identical models of methane with four different colored balls attached to each carbon. On one of the models switch two of the balls. Draw the two structures in stereoscopic projection (with dash, wedge, etc.). Label each hydrogen as H1, H2, etc.arrow_forward2. The molecules shown below are four terpineol isomers. They are isolated from plants and have distinct aromas. For example, a -terpineol is a common perfume ingredient and smells similar to lilacs. Hol H-O- a-terpineol B-terpineol Y-terpineol 4-terpineol A) Draw a structural isomer of terpineol that meet the following criteria. You should draw one unique structure for each set. You must draw each molecule twice, once as a skeletal structure and once as a complete Lewis structure showing all atoms, bonds, and lone pairs of electrons. i. Does not have a ring. ii. Has an E alkene. iii. Has a secondary alcohol. iv. Does not contain an alcohol. B) Draw a complete Lewis structure of a-terpineol showing all bonds, atoms and lone pairs of electrons.arrow_forwardWhich structure is not an isomer if butanal? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- Q7arrow_forward2. In the past ether was used as an anaesthetic but has been replaced by safer compounds because it is very volatile and flammable. Explain why ether has a lower boiling point than alcohols but higher than alkanes. Please answer this question with the full explanation, its very urgent!arrow_forwardIs it possible for a motor fuel to have a negative octane rating? Explain.arrow_forward
