In above problem -26, why the IUPAC name 4-isopropyl-5-secondary butyldecane is wrong? |
| Answer» Solution :In nomenclature, secondary PREFIX of ALKYL group is not consider in alphabetical order so, first letter B of BUTYL is consider. B of butyl is prior to the ISOPROPYL (I) So, In this name first secondary butyl is required there after iso propyl is placed. So this GIVEN name is wrong. | |

In a Victor Meyer's determination of molecular mass, 0.1015 g of an organic substance displaced 27.96 mL of air at 15°C and 766 mm pressure. Calculate the molecular mass of the substance (Aqueous tension at 15°C = 16 mm). |
|
Answer» Solution :In the present case, mass of the substance = 0.1015 g Volume of moist air = 27.96 mL Room temperature = 273 + 15 = 288 K Barometric pressure = 766 MM `P_(1) = 766-16 = 750 mm, P_(2) = 760 mm` `V_(1) = 27.96 mL, V_(2)`= ? `T_(1) = 288 K, T_(2) = 273 K` According to the gas equation, `(P_(1)V_(1))/T_(1) = (P_(2)V_(2))/T_(2)` `V_(2) = (P_(1)V_(1))/T_(1) xx T_(2)/P_(2) = (750 xx 27.96)/288 xx 273/760 = 26.16 mL` Thus, 0.1015 g of the given compound displaces 26.16 mL of dry air at S.T.R This is equal to the volume of vapour formed. `THEREFORE 26.16` mL of vapour at S.T.R weigh = 0.1015 g Hence, the MOLECULAR mass of the given substance is 86.9 |

In a Victor Meyer's determination, 0.23 g of a volatile substance displaced air which measured 112 mL at S.T.P. Calculate the vapour density and molecular weight of the substance (1 litre of H_2 at S.T.P. weighs 0.09 g). |
|
Answer» `V.D. =(" WEIGHT of a definite volume of gas at S.T.P.")/("Weight of the same volume of" H_2 "at S.T.P.")` In the present case, 112 mL of the vapour of the given substance weighs 0.23 g. The weight of similar volume (112 mL) of H2 at S.T.P. will be `=(0.09)/1000 xx 112 = 0.01008 g` `:." The V.D. of the given substance " (0.23)/(0.01008)= 22.82` The molecular weight is related to V.D. as Molecular weight `= 2 xx V.D`. Hence, the molecular weight of the given substance `= 2 xx 22.82 = 45.64` |

In a regular B_(12) icosahedran : (a) How many boron atoms are equidistant from a given boron atom ? (b) How many edges are there ? ( c) How many valence electrons are there ? (d) Can each edge line represent pair bond ? ( e) Explain the type of bonding involved in elemental boron ? |
|
Answer» Solution :In a regular `B_(12)` icosahedran : (a) Five boron atoms are equidistant from a given boron atom. (b) There are `30` edges, i.e. `5` from the TOP B-atom, `5` around the upper pentagon, `10` from the upper pentagon to the low, `5` around the lower pentagon and `5` to the bottom boron atom. ( c) Valence shell electronic configuration of `B` is `2 s^(2) 2p^(1)`, so each boron atom has `3` valence electrons. Total number of valence electrons in `B_(12)` icosahedra `= 3 xx 12 = 36` electrons. (d) No, there are `30` edges in `B_(12)` icosahedra, so the total electron should be `30 xx 2 = 60` electrons. SINCE there are not `60` electrons. hence each EDGE line cannot represent an electron pair. ( e) There MUST be some `(3c, 2e)` bridge bonding, just as in diborane. |
