Question
Chapter 1, Problem 52P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
For the following sets of atoms, the bond-line formulas for all the possible constitutionally isomeric compounds or ions that could be made from them are to be written. All unshared electron pairs andformal charges are to be shown.
Concept Introduction:
In bond line formulas, the bonds between atoms are drawn in a zigzag manner. If no atom is present at the corner of atom, it is assumed carbon atom is present. In this notation, carbon and hydrogen atoms are not written but if any other atom is present like O, Br, Cl, N, they must be written.
