Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Molecular formula and condensed structural formula for the given ball-stick model has to be written along with the IUPAC name.
Concept Introduction:
Molecular formula of a compound is the representation of a compound by using the total number of atoms that is present in it.
Condensed structural formula is representation of the organic compound. In this the lengthy carbon chain is shown only with the carbon atoms (along with the hydrogen) without any bonds. The additional branches are shown with explicit bonds.
Any organic molecule can be named by using certain rules given by IUPAC (International Union for Pure and applied chemistry). IUPAC name consists of three parts in major namely Prefix suffix and root word.
Prefix represents the substituent present in the molecule and its position in the root name.
Suffix denotes the presence of functional group if any in the molecule. It can be an
Root word represents the longest continuous carbon skeleton of the organic molecule.
