Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of an achiral tetramethylcyclohexane for which the chair interconversion results in identical molecules is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Conformation isomers are formed by the rotation about single bond while the atoms and connectivity remains same. For cyclohexane, the most stable conformation is chair conformation in which all the carbon-hydrogen bonds are staggered. Axial bonds are above or below the plane of the ring while equatorial bonds are in the plane of the ring.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of an achiral trimethylcyclohexane with two chair forms that are conformational diastereomers is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Conformation isomers are formed by the rotation about single bond while the atoms and connectivity remains same. For cyclohexane the most stable conformation is chair conformation in which all the carbon-hydrogen bonds are staggered. Axial bonds are above or below the plane of the ring while equatorial bonds are in the plane of the ring.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of a chiral trimethylcyclohexane with two chair forms that are conformational diastereomers is to be predicted.

(d)
Interpretation:
The structure of a tetramethylcyclohexane with chair forms that are conformational enantiomers is to be predicted.

- Technetium is the first element in the periodic chart that does not have any stable isotopes. Technetium-99m is an especially interesting and valuable isotope as it emits a gamma ray with a half life ideally suited for medical tests. It would seem that the decay of technetium should fit the treatment above with the result In(c/c) = -kt. The table below includes data from the two sites: http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/druginfo.cfm?id=7130 http://wiki.medpedia.com/Clinical: Neutrospec_(Technetium_(99m Tc)_fanolesomab). a. b. C. Graph the fraction (c/c.) on the vertical axis versus the time on the horizontal axis. Also graph In(c/c.) on the vertical axis versus time on the horizontal axis. When half of the original amount of starting material has hours fraction remaining disappeared, c/c = ½ and the equation In(c/c.) = -kt becomes In(0.5) = -kt1/2 where t₁₂ is the half life (the time for half of the material to decay away). Determine the slope of your In(c/c.) vs t graph and…arrow_forwardPlease correct answer and don't use hand ratingarrow_forward1. a) Assuming that an atom of arsenic has hydrogen-like atomic orbitals, sketch the radial probability plots for 4p and 4d orbitals of S atom.
