Question
Chapter 3.1, Problem 3.2TIY
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:The reason behind the decreased bond strength in the series
Concept introduction:There are several factors that contribute to the strength of a bond and they are as follows:
The orbitals of bonds if matched betterin size and energy then lead to effective overlap and thus it is difficult to cleave such strong bonds.If the polarity between the atoms that overlap is greater then greater extent of columbic attraction that reinforces the bond.

Draw the complete Lewis structure of (CH3)2CHCH(NH2)CO2H and identify all H-bond donors and all H-bond acceptors.
The compound whose structure is shown here is acetyl acetone. It exists in two forms:the enol form and the keto form
The molecule reacts with OH–to form an anion, [CH3COCHCOCH3] (often abbreviatedacac–for acetylacetonate ion). One or the most interesting aspects of this anion is thatone or more of them can react with transition metal cations to give stable, highlycolored compounds
(a) Are the keto and enol forms of acetylacetone resonance forms? Explain youranswer.(b) What is the hybridization or each atom (except H) in the enol form? What changesin hybridization occur when it is transformed into the keto form?(c) What are the electron-pair geometry and molecular geometry around each C atomin the keto and enol forms? What changes in geometry occur when the keto formchanges to the enol form?(d) Draw three possible resonance structures for the acac–ion.(e) Is cis-trans isomerism possible in either the enol or the keto form of acetylacetone?(f) Is the enol form of acetylacetone polar?…
