Interpretation:
The possible structures for the given molecular formulae are to be represented.
Concept Introduction:
A molecular formula gives the number and type of atoms present in a compound. It can be used to identify the possible functional group of the compound, and hence, the structure can be drawn.
Functional groups are specific substituent within the molecules that are responsible for the characteristic
Esters are the organic compounds that contain
Alcohols are the organic compounds that contain
Amides are the organic compounds that contain
Carboxylic acids are the organic compounds that contain
