Interpretation:
The most polar diatomic molecule that could be formed using only halogen atoms should be explained.
Concept introduction:
A diatomic molecule is formed by the bonding between two atoms only. If only one type of atoms are used in forming diatomic molecule then the molecule is symmetric and known as homo diatomic molecules like H2,O2,Cl2 etc.
If two different atoms are shared together by a bond then it is known as a hetero-diatomic molecule.
Halogens are group 17th elements which have seven electrons in their outermost orbit so by accepting one electron they get the complete octets.
Halogens have following elements:
Now, the more the electronegativity difference between sharing atoms more will be its polarity in bond formation.
Further the property of electronegativity decreases down a group.

Cyanohydrins are important intermediates in the synthesis of a-hydroxycarboxylic acids from ketones and aldehydes. The nitrile functional group can be hydrolyzed by aqueous acid to yield a carboxylic acid. Nitriles can also be hydrolyzed to carboxylic acids using aqueous base. Unfortunately, when a cyanohydrin is treated with aqueous base the original carbonyl compound is isolated.

A derivative of saralasin is used therapeutically as an antihypertensive. Amino acid analysis of saralasin show the presence of the following amino acids: Ala, Arg, His, Pro, Sar, Tyr, Val, Val A. Sar is the abbreviation for sarcosine, N-methyl aminoethanoic acid. Draw the structure of sarcosine. B. N-Terminal analysis by the Edman method shows saralasin contains sarcosine at the N-terminus. Partial hydrolysis of saralasin with dilute hydrochloric acid yields the following fragments: Tyr-Val-His Sar-Arg-Val His-Pro-Ala Val-Tyr-Val Arg-Val-Tyr What is the structure of saralasin?arrow_forward
