Predict the geometry around each carbon atom in vinyl acetate, a precursor of the polyvinyl alcohol polymer used in automobile safety glass.

Describe the orbitals used by each carbon atom in bonding and indicate the approximate bond angles. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.

Predict the approximate molecular geometry around each carbon atom of acetonitrile. H3C- -C EN: The carbon atom in CH, is: The nitrile carbon atom (C=N) is: trigonal planar trigonal pyramidal bent trigonal planar tetrahedral bent trigonal pyramidal tetrahedral linear linear

Which compounds have a carbon-carbon triple bond?

What is the VSEPR Shape of Hexane?

How many electron pairs are shared when a triple bond exists between two carbon atoms? What must he the geometric arrangement around the carbon atoms in a triple bond? Draw the Lewis structure of a simple molecule that contains a triple bond.

Fatty acids are molecules with a carboxylic acid on one end and long hydrocarbon chain on the other. The sodium salts of fatty acids (such as sodium strearate, shown below) are commonly used in soaps to trap nonpolar dirt and grease particles. Soap does not work well in "hard water, which is water with high concentration of magensium and calcium ions (often found in water obtained from wells) Explain this observation at a molecular level.

Draw the structure of CH4, COH4, COH2, AND CO2H2

1. Predict the structure of ethanol once it oxidizes in the human body. Draw the condensed structure. 2. A student found a bottle in the lab filled with a colorless solution. The label on the bottle was fading. The students were able to correctly identify, but knewit was aa phenol from the readable part of the label. The student decided to run a ferric chloride test. The test resulted in a greed color. What is the identity of the liquid? 3. Predict below alcohols their skeletal structure; if soluble in water; does it contain a phenol group, is it primary, secondary, or tertiary alcohol; can it be oxidized by chromate; if yes what is the oxidation product and draw the skeletal structure; will the alcohol form a colorful ccomplex with Fe3+? Thymol ( found in oil of thyme, antiseptic properties) Menthol ( found in mint, gives a cooling sensation) Cinnamyl aalcohol (used in perfumes ans deodorants) Cety alcohol (ingredient in shampoo, creams, and lotions)

Why does NH3 have a higher boiling point than BH3?To answer this question, draw out the Lewis structure for each molecule, and then draw out the VSEPR shape for each molecule. Also, Butane is more viscous (has higher intermolecular forces) than ethane. Why?
