The description of the molecule shown, having G as a generic substituent, is to be written.
Concept introduction:
An
Answer to Problem A.1P
The given molecule is a substituted ethane.
Explanation of Solution
The given molecule is:
In this molecule, there are two carbon atoms in the straight chain. Hence, the alkane must be ethane
The given molecule is a substituted ethane.
(b)
Interpretation:
The description of the molecule shown, having G as a generic substituent, is to be written.
Concept introduction:
An alkane is said to be substituted if a hydrogen atom of the alkane is replaced by another atom or group of atoms. The atom or group of atoms which replaces the hydrogen atom is called a substituent. It is shown by G, which means a generic substituent.
Answer to Problem A.1P
The given molecule is a substituted pentane.
Explanation of Solution
The given molecule is:
In this molecule, there are five carbon atoms in the straight chain. Hence, the alkane must be pentane
The given molecule is a substituted pentane.

- Experiment: Each team will be provided with 5g of a mixture of acetanilide and salicylic acid. You will divide it into three 1.5 g portions in separate 125 mL Erlenmeyer flasks savıng some for melting point analysis. Dissolve the mixture in each flask in ~60mL of DI water by heating to boiling on a hotplate. Take the flasks off the hotplate once you have a clear solution and let them stand on the bench top for 5 mins and then allow them to cool as described below. Sample A-Let the first sample cool slowly to room temperature by letting it stand on your lab bench, with occasional stirring to promote crystallization. Sample B-Cool the second sample 1n a tap-water bath to 10-15 °C Sample C-Cool the third sample in an ice-bath to 0-2 °C Results: weight after recrystalization and melting point temp.
