Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct sequence from lowest to highest boiling point is Methane (CH4CH_4), Ethane (C2H6C_2H_6), Propane (C3H8C_3H_8), and Butane (C4H10C_4H_{10}).
In the unbranched alkane homologous series, boiling point increases progressively with increasing carbon chain length and relative molecular mass due to stronger intermolecular van der Waals forces. Consequently, Methane (CH4CH_4) has the lowest boiling point, followed by Ethane (C2H6C_2H_6), Propane (C3H8C_3H_8), and Butane (C4H10C_4H_{10}) with the highest boiling point.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the relationship between molecular size and boiling point in a homologous series
As the number of carbon atoms in straight-chain alkanes increases, the molecular mass increases.
Members of a homologous series share identical functional groups and exhibit a gradual gradation in physical properties.
2
Evaluate the strength of intermolecular forces
Van der Waals (dispersion) forces become stronger with increasing molecular surface area and electron count.
Greater intermolecular attraction requires more thermal energy to separate molecules into the gas phase.
3
Sequence the compounds from smallest to largest carbon chain
Methane (1C) < Ethane (2C) < Propane (3C) < Butane (4C)
Fewer carbon atoms correlate directly with a lower boiling point.

Cevap

Alkanals match with CnH2nOC_n H_{2n}O; Alkanoic acids match with CnH2nO2C_n H_{2n}O_2; Alkynes match with CnH2n−2C_n H_{2n-2}; Alkanols match with CnH2n+2OC_n H_{2n+2}O.
Each class of organic compound is defined by its characteristic functional group and degree of unsaturation. Alkanols are saturated single-oxygen compounds (CnH2n+2OC_n H_{2n+2}O), Alkanals feature one carbonyl double bond (CnH2nOC_n H_{2n}O), Alkanoic acids feature a carboxyl group (CnH2nO2C_n H_{2n}O_2), and Alkynes contain a triple bond reducing hydrogen content to CnH2n−2C_n H_{2n-2}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the general formula for aliphatic monohydric alkanols.
Alkanols consist of an alkyl group (CnH2n+1C_n H_{2n+1}) bonded to a hydroxyl group (−OH-\text{OH}), giving the molecular formula CnH2n+2OC_n H_{2n+2}O.
Saturated aliphatic monohydric alcohols have the maximum possible hydrogen-to-carbon ratio for oxygenated single-bonded species.
2
Determine the general formula for alkanals.
Alkanals contain a terminal carbonyl group (−CHO-\text{CHO}), introducing one double bond (C=O\text{C=O}) which reduces the hydrogen atom count by two compared to alkanols, giving CnH2nOC_n H_{2n}O.
Each site of unsaturation (such as a π\pi-bond) decreases the hydrogen atom count by two.
3
Determine the general formula for alkanoic acids.
Alkanoic acids contain a carboxyl group (−COOH-\text{COOH}), giving two oxygen atoms and one carbon-oxygen double bond, yielding CnH2nO2C_n H_{2n}O_2.
Carboxylic acids are functional group isomers of esters and share the general formula CnH2nO2C_n H_{2n}O_2.
4
Determine the general formula for alkynes.
Alkynes possess one carbon-carbon triple bond (two π\pi-bonds), reducing the hydrogen count by four relative to alkanes (CnH2n+2C_n H_{2n+2}), resulting in CnH2n−2C_n H_{2n-2}.
A triple bond accounts for two degrees of unsaturation.

Cevap: 3-methylpentane

Cevap

3-methylpentane
The correct IUPAC name is determined by finding the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms. Expanding the condensed formula CH3−CH2−CH(CH2CH3)−CH3\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)-\text{CH}_3 shows that the longest continuous chain contains 5 carbons (pentane). The remaining branch is a methyl group at carbon-3, making the systematic name 3-methylpentane.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the longest continuous carbon chain in the structure.
Expanding CH3−CH2−CH(CH2CH3)−CH3\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)-\text{CH}_3 shows a continuous chain of 5 carbon atoms (pentane).
IUPAC nomenclature rules dictate that the parent chain must be the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms.
2
Identify substituents and number the parent chain.
A methyl group (−CH3-\text{CH}_3) is attached at carbon-3.
Numbering the 5-carbon chain from either end places the substituent at position 3.
3
Combine the substituent locant, substituent name, and parent alkane name.
The correct IUPAC name is 3-methylpentane.
Combining the locant (3), substituent (methyl), and parent (pentane) yields 3-methylpentane.

In a homologous series of alkanoic acids, physical properties such as boiling point change systematically with increasing molecular size. Arrange the following straight-chain alkanoic acids in order of increasing boiling point, starting with the compound that has the lowest boiling point.

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct order of straight-chain alkanoic acids from lowest to highest boiling point is: Methanoic acid (HCOOH\text{HCOOH}), Ethanoic acid (CH3COOH\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}), Propanoic acid (CH3CH2COOH\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{COOH}), and Butanoic acid (CH3CH2CH2COOH\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{COOH}).
In any homologous series of organic compounds, physical properties such as boiling point increase with increasing relative molecular mass and carbon chain length. Methanoic acid has 1 carbon, Ethanoic acid has 2, Propanoic acid has 3, and Butanoic acid has 4. Therefore, the boiling point increases steadily from methanoic acid to butanoic acid.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the homologous series and structural difference among the compounds.
All four compounds belong to the alkanoic acid homologous series, differing consecutively by a −CH2−-\text{CH}_2- (methylene) unit.
Members of a homologous series share similar chemical properties but show a gradual gradation in physical properties.
2
Determine how molecular mass and chain length affect the boiling point.
As the number of carbon atoms in the chain increases, the relative molecular mass increases and the surface area for intermolecular contact expands.
Greater molecular mass and contact surface area lead to stronger London dispersion (van der Waals) forces, requiring more thermal energy to boil.
3
Sequence the compounds by increasing carbon chain length and molar mass.
Methanoic acid (1 C1\text{ C}) < Ethanoic acid (2 C2\text{ C}) < Propanoic acid (3 C3\text{ C}) < Butanoic acid (4 C4\text{ C}).
Methanoic acid has the lowest boiling point (~101∘C101^\circ\text{C}) and Butanoic acid has the highest (~163∘C163^\circ\text{C}).

Cevap: 2-methylbutane

Cevap

The correct IUPAC name for the compound is 2-methylbutane.
The longest continuous carbon chain consists of 4 carbon atoms (butane). Numbering from the end closest to the branch assigns the methyl group to position 2, giving the correct IUPAC name 2-methylbutane.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the longest continuous carbon chain.
The longest chain has 4 carbon atoms, which corresponds to the parent alkane butane.
IUPAC rules mandate that the parent structure is named according to the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms.
2
Number the parent carbon chain to give substituents the lowest locant numbers.
Numbering from left to right assigns the methyl group to carbon-2 (CC-2), whereas right to left gives carbon-3 (CC-3). Thus, left-to-right numbering is correct.
Substituents must receive the lowest possible numerical locants.
3
Assemble the complete IUPAC name.
The substituent prefix '2-methyl' combined with the parent 'butane' gives 2-methylbutane.
The full name consists of the substituent position, substituent name, and parent alkane name.

Cevap

The correct sequence in decreasing order of IUPAC principal functional group priority is: Carboxylic acid (−COOH-\text{COOH}), Ester (−COOR-\text{COOR}), Aldehyde (−CHO-\text{CHO}), Alcohol (−OH-\text{OH}), and Amine (−NH2-\text{NH}_2).
According to official IUPAC nomenclature seniority rules for principal functional groups: Carboxylic acids (−COOH-\text{COOH}) take top priority, followed by acid derivatives like Esters (−COOR-\text{COOR}), then Aldehydes (−CHO-\text{CHO}), Alcohols (−OH-\text{OH}), and finally Amines (−NH2-\text{NH}_2).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the highest-priority functional group among carboxylic derivatives and oxygen/nitrogen species.
Carboxylic acids (−COOH-\text{COOH}) occupy the top hierarchy level among organic functional groups.
IUPAC nomenclature assigns the highest principal suffix priority to carboxylic acid functional groups over esters, carbonyls, alcohols, and amines.
2
Compare carboxylic acid derivatives to carbonyl and hydroxyl groups.
Ester (−COOR-\text{COOR}) ranks higher than Aldehyde (−CHO-\text{CHO}).
Carboxylic acid derivatives (esters, acyl halides, amides) take priority over aldehydes and ketones.
3
Determine priority among oxygen- and nitrogen-containing groups.
Aldehyde (−CHO-\text{CHO}) > Alcohol (−OH-\text{OH}) > Amine (−NH2-\text{NH}_2).

Arrange the following hydrocarbons in order of increasing boiling point, starting with the compound that has the lowest boiling point:

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct order from lowest to highest boiling point is 2,2-dimethylpropane, 2-methylbutane, pentane, and hexane.
Boiling points of alkanes depend on molecular mass and surface area contact. Hexane has the highest molecular mass and largest surface area, yielding the highest boiling point. Among the structural isomers of pentane, increased branching produces a more spherical shape with smaller surface contact area, reducing intermolecular van der Waals forces. Consequently, 2,2-dimethylpropane (most branched) has the lowest boiling point, followed by 2-methylbutane, straight-chain pentane, and finally hexane.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Compare molecular mass and carbon chain length among the given hydrocarbons.
hexane (C6H14C_6H_{14}) has a larger molecular mass and longer chain than the pentane isomers (C5H12C_5H_{12}), giving it the strongest London dispersion forces and highest boiling point.
Boiling point increases with molar mass in a homologous series due to increased electron cloud polarizability.
2
Compare the degree of branching among the structural isomers of pentane (C5H12C_5H_{12}).
2,2-dimethylpropane is highly branched (compact spherical shape), 2-methylbutane is moderately branched, and pentane is a straight chain.
Increased branching makes the molecule more spherical, reducing the surface area available for intermolecular van der Waals contact.
3
Rank all four compounds in order of increasing boiling point.
2,2-dimethylpropane < 2-methylbutane < pentane < hexane.
More branched isomers have lower boiling points than less branched isomers of the same molecular formula, and higher molar mass alkanes boil at higher temperatures than lower mass alkanes.

Cevap: 4-ethyl-5-methylhex-1-yne

Cevap

4-ethyl-5-methylhex-1-yne
The compound is numbered starting from the terminal alkyne carbon to give the triple bond the lowest locant (C1C1). At C4C4, there are two possible 6-carbon chains. Following IUPAC tie-breaking guidelines, the continuous chain that yields the greater number of substituents (ethyl at C4C4 and methyl at C5C5) is chosen as the parent chain, resulting in 4-ethyl-5-methylhex-1-yne.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the principal functional group and assign lowest locant numbering
The alkyne triple bond (−C≡C−-C\equiv C-) is at position 1, so numbering starts from the rightmost carbon: C1 is HC≡HC\equiv, C2 is −C−-C-, C3 is −CH2−-CH_2-, C4 is −CH(C2H5)−-CH(C_2H_5)-.
IUPAC rules state that principal functional groups receive the lowest possible locants.
2
Determine the longest continuous carbon chain containing the triple bond
From C4, continuing straight through −CH(CH3)CH3-CH(CH_3)CH_3 gives 6 carbons (hex-1-yne). Going down the ethyl group −CH2CH3-CH_2CH_3 also gives 6 carbons (hex-1-yne).
Both potential paths yield a parent chain length of 6 carbons.
3
Apply the tie-breaking rule for chains of equal length
The chain straight through −CH(CH3)CH3-CH(CH_3)CH_3 has 2 substituents (ethyl at C4, methyl at C5). The path through the ethyl group has only 1 substituent (isopropyl at C4). Thus, the chain with 2 substituents is selected.
When two chains of equal length compete for parent status, IUPAC rules dictate selecting the chain with the maximum number of substituents.
4
Assemble the IUPAC name in alphabetical order
Alphabetize 'ethyl' before 'methyl' to give 4-ethyl-5-methylhex-1-yne.
Substituents are listed alphabetically regardless of their locant numbers.

Arrange the following organic compounds in order of INCREASING solubility in water, starting with the least soluble compound:

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct sequence from least soluble to most soluble in water is: Pentane, Pentan-1-ol, Butane-1,4-diol, Ethane-1,2-diol.
Water solubility in organic compounds is determined by the balance between hydrophilic (water-attracting) functional groups and hydrophobic (water-repelling) carbon chains. Pentane is non-polar and cannot form hydrogen bonds, making it the least soluble. Pentan-1-ol has one −OH-\text{OH} group but a large 5-carbon hydrophobic chain, giving it low solubility. Butane-1,4-diol contains two −OH-\text{OH} groups, significantly enhancing hydrogen bonding with water molecules. Ethane-1,2-diol has two −OH-\text{OH} groups and the shortest hydrophobic carbon chain (2 carbons), making it the most soluble in water.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the functional groups present in each compound.
Pentane has no polar functional groups. Pentan-1-ol has one −OH-\text{OH} group. Butane-1,4-diol has two −OH-\text{OH} groups. Ethane-1,2-diol has two −OH-\text{OH} groups.
Water is a polar solvent that dissolves compounds capable of forming hydrogen bonds through polar functional groups like −OH-\text{OH}.
2
Compare the hydrophobic alkyl chain lengths for compounds with the same functional group capability.
Ethane-1,2-diol has a smaller non-polar carbon chain (2 carbons) compared to Butane-1,4-diol (4 carbons).
A larger non-polar alkyl region increases hydrophobic interaction, reducing solubility in water.
3
Establish the complete order of increasing solubility.
Pentane < Pentan-1-ol < Butane-1,4-diol < Ethane-1,2-diol.
Solubility increases with an increasing ratio of hydrophilic functional groups (−OH-\text{OH}) to non-polar alkyl chain length.
