Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The structural formula and the hybridization of each carbon atom in the isomeric formula
Concept Introduction:
The structural formula of a chemical molecule consists of a graphic representation of the molecular structure and arrangement of atoms.
Isomeric molecule
Hybridization occurs by the mixing of atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals with different energies and shapes.
If there are two electron domains on an atom, then the atom is
If there are three electron domains on an atom, then the atom is
If there are four electron domains on an atom, then the atom is

- Draw Lewis structures and condensed structural formulas for the four alcohols with the molecular formula C4H10O. Classify each alcohol as primary, secondary, or tertiary. (Hint: First consider the connectivity of the four carbon atoms; they can be bonded either four in a chain or three in a chain with the fourth carbon as a branch on the middle carbon. Then consider the points at which the iOH group can be bonded to each carbon chain.)arrow_forwardDraw and describe the hybridization process of PROPENE, CH3CH=CH2. State the type of hybrid of each carbon, label all the bonds involve.arrow_forwardTo expand on the discussion of carbon valence and hybridization, provide two simple hydrocarbons that have carbon atoms ranging from 3 to 8. Identify the hybridization and bond angles with respect to the carbon atoms. Number the sigma bonds and pi bonds present. Include a drawing of their structure.arrow_forward

- A. Structural Isomerism of Alkanes Construct models for the five alkanes that have the molecular formula C6H14. All five of your models should have the same number of each type of atom, but they should have the atoms connected in a different order. Thus the molecules they represent are structural isomers of one another. Note the tetrahedral geometry of each carbon atom. Draw an extended and a condensed structure (NOT skeletal/line angle) of each structural isomer, then determine its IUPAC name. Recall that since the IUPAC name specifies the number of each type of atom and how they are connected, each structural isomer will have a different name. Each name should very specifically describe the structure.
