Textbook Question

Chapter 8.5, Problem 2RIA

Retrieve, Infer, Apply

Construct a table that compares the chemical nature, mechanism of action, mode of application, common uses and effectiveness, and advantages and disadvantages between: phenolics, alcohols, halogens, heavy metals, quaternary ammonium compounds, aldehydes, and ethylene oxide.

Definition Definition Organic compounds that have a carbonyl group, C=O, as their functional group. The carbonyl group in aldehydes is placed at the end of the molecular structure, which means the C=O is attached to one hydrogen atom and an alkyl group or a benzene ring. Just like all the other homologous series in organic chemistry, the naming of aldehydes uses the suffix “-al”. The general molecular formula is C n H 2n O.
