Explain Conformations of Acyclic Alkanes—Ethane ?
Show what is asked for the following alkanes.1. Butanea) combustionb) halogenationc) substitution2. Pentanea) combustionb) halogenation
Branched compounds are said to have weaker intermolecular forces of attraction. Therefore, between pentane, a straight-chained compound and 2-methylbutanol which exhibits branching at carbon 2, the former has stronger IMFA. (hint: look at the structure of the two molecules) True or False
the bonds in the alkene compounds are sigma and bi bonds true or flase
. With very reactive agents, such as the halogen elements, alkanes undergo reactions, whereby a new atom rep laces one or more hydrogen atoms of the alkane.
If one hydrogen in a hydrocarbon is replaced by a halogen atom, the number of isomers that exist for the substituted compound depends on the number of types of hydrogen in the original hydrocarbon. Thus there is only one form of chloroethane (all hydrogens in ethane are equivalent), but there are two isomers of propane that arise from the substitution of a methyl hydrogen or a methylene hydrogen. How many isomers can be obtained when one hydrogen in each of the compounds named below is replaced by a chlorine atom? a. n-pentane b. 2-methylbutane c. 2,4-dimethylpentane d. methylcyclobutane
