Chapter 5, Problem 47P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Number of Π bonds in the given organic compound has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

  • Molecular formula is a chemical formula that shows the total number of kinds of atoms in a molecule.  Some types of organic compounds and their general formulas listed below,

    OrganiccompoundGenaralformulaAlkaneCnH2n+2AlkeneCnH2nAlkyneCnH2n2

  • In the formula of organic compound two hydrogen atom should be subtracted from its general formula if the compound contains Π bond or ring.
  • Degree of unsaturation of an organic compound can be determined by using the equation,

(2n+2X)2n=numberofcarboninthemoleculeX=numberofhydrogenatominthemolecule

  • The number of Π bonds can be calculated using the above equation also.  Because the presence of Π bonds make the compound unsaturated.

True or false: (a) The C¬C bonds in benzene are all the samelength and correspond to typical single C¬C bond lengths.(b) The C¬C bond in acetylene, HCCH, is longer than theaverage C¬C bond length in benzene.
Calculate the enthalpy of formation of propane from:a. Combustion data (ΔHc = –2217 kJ mol–1; ΔHf (CO2) = –393.4 kJ mol–1, ΔHf (H2O) =–285.2 kJ mol–1);b. Bond enthalpies (C–C 348 kJ mol–1; C–H 413 kJ mol–1; H–H 436 kJ mol–1; ΔHvap forcarbon = –717 kJ mol–1).
Two useful organic compounds that contain Cl atoms are vinyl chloride (CH2 = CHCI) and chloroethane (CH;CH;CI). 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 local anesthetic. Why is the C- Cl bond of vinyl chloride stronger than the C– CIl bond in chloroethane.
