- Define the process of determining Intermolecular Forces in Organic Compounds ?arrow_forwardFor each of the following, circle the portion of the molecule that determines its functional group classification and state whether the functional group is an acyl halide, aldehyde, amide, anhydride, carboxylic acid, ester, ketone, lactam, lactone, or nitrile. Then, unless otherwise indicated, write both the IUPAC and common name of the molecule.arrow_forwardMany substitution reactions are initiated by electrostatic attraction between reactants. Show where this attraction arises in the formation of an amide from an amine and an ester.arrow_forward
- What is common in the structures of carboxylic acids?arrow_forwardWhat is the importance of knowing the process of salicylic acid synthesis, given the fact the this compound has a diverse pharmaceutical use?arrow_forwardThe chemical reaction where a carboxylic acid reacts with an alcohol in the presence of an inorganic acid source, is called esterification. True Falsearrow_forward
- What is the name of the ester formed when hexanol reacts with ethanoic acid? OR Explain why carboxylic acids are generally solids at room temperature.arrow_forwardWhen methanoic acid reacts with a mixture of these two propanol isomers, two esters are formed. Draw the complete structural formulas of these two esters.arrow_forwarda)why can esterification also be considered to be a neutralization reaction? b)What is distillation? How would distillation be used to purify an ester?arrow_forward
