Q

Give the IUPAC name for isooctane

⚡️when it says the IUPAC name it means you need to write that long ass name with methyls and numbers and shit

A

2, 2, 4 trimethyl

Q

Give the IUPAC name of the position isomer of but-1-ene

When it’s talking about POSITION you have to change the chain length

A

But-1-ene C=C-C-C

But-2-ene C-C=C-C

Q

Give the IUPAC name of the chain isomer of but-1-ene

A

Methylpropene because
☄️chain isomer is all about the chain lengths chaining
☄️you know by IUPAC it’s that long name with methyls wnd stuff

Q

A hydrocarbon W contains 92.3% carbon by mass. The relative molecular mass of W is 78.0

Calculate the empirical formula of W

Calculate the molecular formula of W

A

Mr = 78

C: H

  1. 3: 7.7. (/12)
    1: 1 EF= CH

12+1=13 78/13 =6. =C6H6
