- Two useful organic compounds that contain Cl atoms are vinyl chloride (CH2 = CHCl) and chloroethane (CH3CH2Cl). Vinyl chloride is the starting material used to prepare poly(vinyl chloride), a plastic used in insulation, pipes, and bottles.Chloroethane (ethyl chloride) is a tica roman local anesthetic. Why is the C–Cl bond of vinyl chloride stronger than the C–Cl bond in chloroethane ?arrow_forwardHow many different El products could be formed in the given molecule?

- 1. True or False a. UV-Vis spectroscopy is necessary for the analysis of organic compounds because most organic compounds are colored green in the presence of an extracting solvent. (T/F) b. The spectrophotometer is able to detect and report Absorbance values of a compound based on the compound's ability to absorb radiation or emit radiation. (T/F) c.
