Interpretation: To draw the structural formula and IUPAC name of all possible di-chloropropanes.
Concept Introduction: The structural formula is used to represent the atoms of a chemical compound. It is the way of representing the chemical compound and chemical proportions of an atom using
Answer to Problem 7LC
Isomers are formed when a substitution reaction involving chlorine and propane takes place.
The structural formula along with the IUPAC name is as below:
Explanation of Solution
When a substitution reaction involving chlorine and propane happens, isomers of Di chloropropane are formed. 4 isomers can be formed when this reaction happens, they are:
- 1,1-dichloropropane
- 1,2-dichloropropane
- 1,3-dichloropropane
- 2,2-dichloropropane
4 isomers are formed and all of them are stated above. The isomers are the possible structures that can be formed during the reaction. The
