- Give IUPAC names for the five isomers with the formula C6H14.arrow_forwardEthylene glycol, the main ingredient in antifreeze, contains 38.7% carbon, 9.7% hydrogen and 51.6 % oxygen. Calculate the empirical and molecular formulas for ethylene glycol. Given the molar mass is approximately 60 g/mol. A) Empirical formula: B)Molecular formula: Explain how you obtained the Molecular formula (b)?arrow_forwardWhen Alfred Werner was developing the field of coordination chemistry, it was argued by some that the optical activity he observed in the chiral complexes he had prepared was due to the presence of carbon atoms in themolecule. To disprove this argument, Werner synthesized a chiral complex of cobalt that had no carbon atoms in it, and he was able to resolve it into its enantiomers. Design a cobalt(III) complex that would be chiral if it could be synthesized and that contains no carbon atoms.arrow_forward
