- Draw structural formulas for all of the following. Q.) Alcohols with the molecular formula C4H10Oarrow_forwardSalicylic acid (o-hydroxybenzoic acid) is used as starting material to prepare aspirin. Draw the structure of salicylic acid.arrow_forwardDraw a Lewis structure for hydroxylamine, NH2OH.arrow_forward
- Provide compounds that fit the following descriptions:(a) Two amines that are gases at room temperature(b) A heterocyclic amine(c) A compound with an amine group on an aromatic ringarrow_forwardIDENTIFY THE FUNCTIONAL GROUP PRESENT IN THESE COMPOUNDS. A = ? B = ? C = ?arrow_forwardDraw the structures of the following compounds. (Includes both new and old names.) 3-cyclopentylhexan-3-olarrow_forward
- Write the possible structural formulas for all the constitutionally isomeric compounds having the given molecular formula USING THE DASH FORMULA. Take into account the valency of each atom. Indicate the Formal Charge of the Atom, if there is any on the proposed lewis structure. 2. C5H12O (at least 1 ether, at least 1 Alcohol)arrow_forwardIsobutylene, CH2=C(CH3)2, is used to prepare cold-flow rubber. Draw a structure for the addition polymer formed from this alkene.arrow_forwardIdentify the acid on the left and its conjugate base on the right in the following equations:(a) HOCl + H2O ↔ H3O+ + OCl-(b) HONH2 + H2O ↔ HONH3+ + OH-(c) NH4+ + H2O ↔ NH3 + H3O+(d) 2HCO3-2 ↔ H2CO3 + CO3-2 (e) PO4-3 + H2PO4- ↔ 2HPO4-2arrow_forward
- Are the following molecules chiral or achiral? If they are chiral, identify the chiral carbon atom(s).(a) Pentan-3-ol (b) 2-Bromobutane(c) 2-Methylcyclohexanolarrow_forwardWhen Alfred Werner was developing the field of coordination chemistry, it was argued by some that the optical activity he observed in the chiral complexes he had prepared was due to the presence of carbon atoms in themolecule. To disprove this argument, Werner synthesized a chiral complex of cobalt that had no carbon atoms in it, and he was able to resolve it into its enantiomers. Design a cobalt(III) complex that would be chiral if it could be synthesized and that contains no carbon atoms.arrow_forwardThe quantitative differences in biological activity between the two enantiomers of a compound are sometimes quite large. For example, the D isomer of the drug isoproterenol, used to treat mild asthma, is 50 to 80 times more effective as a bronchodilator than the L isomer. Identify whether each of the indicated atoms in isoproterenol is a chiral center or achiral. HO HO chiral center OH C. H achiral CH₂ Isoproterenol H H H— - N с CH 3 achiral chiral center CH 3arrow_forward
