Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name, condensed structural formula and molecular mass of the given molecule should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Name of the compound can be assigned according to below rule:
First, identify the number of carbon atoms present in chain, and then identify the function group if present in the given compound.
Condensed structural formula is defined as the structural formula which shows the spatial arrangement of bonds in an organic compound. In this structural formula, the bonds between the atoms are shown with lines and omit the bond between carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Molecular mass is defined as the sum of mass of each atom present in the compound.
(b)
Interpretation:
The name, condensed structural formula and molecular mass of the given molecule should be drawn.
