Under strongly acidic conditions, hexane is observed to undergo an isomerization process, during which it is converted into
branched alkanes having the same molecular formula as hexane (C6H₁4). The rate at which each constitutional isomer is produced
is related to the type of acid that is used in the reaction and the degree of mixing that occurs during the reaction (J. Chem. Soc.,
Perkins Trans. 2 1999, 12, 2715-2718).
Step 1
Draw a bond-line structure of hexane.
Draw Your Solution
There are four branched isomers of hexane. Draw bond-line structures of all four of its isomers.
Draw Your Solution
Ethyl ethanoate (commonly called ethyl acetate), CH3CO₂C₂H5, is an important solvent used in nail polish remover, lacquers,
adhesives, the manufacture of plastics, and even as a food favoring. It is produced from acetic acid and ethanol by the reaction
CH3CO₂H + C₂H5OH
CH³CO₂C₂H5 + H₂O
ethanoic acid
(acetic acid)
ethanol
ethyl ethanoate
(ethyl acetate)
At 25 °C, Kc = 4.10 for this reaction.
In a reaction mixture, the following equilibrium concentrations were observed:
[CH3CO₂H] = 0.318 M,
[H₂O] = 0.00671 M, and
[CH3CO₂C₂H5 ] = 0.702 M.
What was the concentration of C₂H5OH in the mixture?
[C2₂H5OH] =
M
Carbon–carbon bond dissociation enthalpies have been measured for many alkanes. Identify the alkane in each of the following pairs that has the lower carbon–carbon bond-dissociation enthalpy, and explain the reason for your choice. (a) Ethane or propane (b) Propane or 2-methylpropane (c) 2-Methylpropane or 2,2-dimethylpropane (d) Cyclobutane or cyclopentane
