Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The oxide
Concept Introduction:
All the main group elements except noble gas react with oxygen. Soluble ionic oxides are found on the left of the periodic table. Molecular oxides are found on the right side of the periodic table.
Metallic elements with low ionization energy form basic ionic oxides.
Elements with intermediate ionization energies form amphoteric oxides.
The general pattern of oxides is,
s-block | p-block | d-block | |
Type | Ionic | Covalent | Ionic |
Acid-base character | Basic | Amphoteric to acidic | Basic to amphoteric |
(b)
Interpretation:
The oxide
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
The oxide
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(d)
Interpretation:
The oxide
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).

- A mixture of C7H12O2, C9H9OCl, biphenyl and acetone was put together in a gas chromatography tube. Please decide from the GC resutls which correspond to the peak for C7,C9 and biphenyl and explain the reasoning based on GC results. Eliminate unnecessary peaks from Gas Chromatography results.arrow_forwardIs the molecule chiral, meso, or achiral? CI .CH3 H₂C CIarrow_forwardPLEASE HELP ! URGENT!arrow_forward
