Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation: A dotted line that connects each partial positive charge density to nearby partial negative charge density should be drawn.
Concept introduction: Electronegative elements have tendency to attract electrons towards it. Since electrons are shared more towards electronegative element, it acquires partial negative charge on it. As a result, other bonded atom forms a partial positive charge.
b)
Interpretation: The reason for the higher boiling point of
Concept introduction: Dipole moment is the measure of bond polarity in a molecule. It is defined as product of charge and distance of separation between opposite charges. Polar molecules consist of dipole moments due to presence of charges in them, whereas non-polar molecules do not have dipole moments. Boiling is used to define when a substance gets converted from its liquid to vapor phase at the boiling point. The temperature at which the vapor pressure of liquid and atmospheric pressure becomes equal is called boiling point.

Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry
- Build a model of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylhexane. Orient the model so that you are looking at the carbon with the arrow pointing to it in Figure 3. Align the bond to the next carbon in the chain so that it is directly behind the first carbon to match a Newman projection view. (See Figure MM.3 in the lab manual) Spin the carbons on either side of the bond you're looking down to cycle through all three staggered and all three eclipsed positions of the substituents. Draw all six positions as Newman projections on the data sheet and identify the position with the highest energy. Draw the six Newman projections of all of the different energy levels. Label each as staggered or eclipsed and rank in order from lowest energy to highest.arrow_forwardShow the process of Converting a Hexagon with Substituents to a Chair Form ?arrow_forward1.
