Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among the given compounds, the one that has higher boiling point is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The boiling point of a molecule depends upon the interactions that result from permanent or induced dipoles. The boiling point of alkane increases with an increase in the size of the hydrocarbon chain. In simple words, more is the molecular size; more is the boiling point of alkane.

Given that there are three possible cis-dimethylcyclohexanes, if the same amount of these compounds were each combusted in a calorimeter, which one pf the three would be expected to release the least amount of heat?
Draw a structural formula for the one constitutional isomer of the unbranched alkane C7H16 in which the longest carbon chain has 4 atoms. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.
(a) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the combustion of 1 mol of benzene, C6H61l2, to CO21g2 and H2O1l2.(b) Compare the quantity of heat produced by combustion of 1.00 g propane with that produced by 1.00 g benzene.
