Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.16P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given compounds and their respective melting points are to be matched.
Concept introduction:
The melting point is defined as a temperature at which the conversion of a solid into a liquid state takes place. At this temperature, a solid is in equilibrium with its liquid. The melting point of symmetrical molecules is found to be greater as compared to non-symmetrical molecules.

You are teaching a class in organic chemistry to grade 12 students. Outline the differences in 3 physical properties between alkanes, alcohols, and
carboxylic acids. Note: they all have the same hydrocarbon length.
Glucose, C6H12O6, contains an aldehyde group but exist predominantly in the form of the cyclic hemiacetal show below.
A cyclic hemiacetal is formed when the —OH group of one carbon bonds to the carbonyl group of another carbon. Identify which carbon provides the —OH group and which provides the —CHO? Give a functional isomer of glucose and draw its structure.
What structural features help us identify a compound as(a) an alkane, (b) a cycloalkane, (c) an alkene, (d) an alkyne,(e) a saturated hydrocarbon, (f) an aromatic hydrocarbon?
