Organic chemistry activity.

ACTIVITIES

Molecules with the same molecular formula can have different structures, this is called isomerism. Structural isomers can belong to different homologous series.

1.  The alkene with the molecular formula C₄H₈ can form three structural isomers.

(a)          Draw the structural formulae of the three isomers.

(b)         Give the IUPAC names of the three isomers.

1. An organic compound with the molecular formula C₃H₆O₂ can similarly form three structural isomers.

(a)            Draw the structural formulae of the three isomers

(b)           Give the IUPAC names for the three isomers.

1. There are two structural isomers for the organic compound with the molecular formula C₂H₄O₂.

(a)           Write down the structural formulae of these two isomers and next to each, the IUPAC name.

1. An organic compound has the following molecular formula:C₅H₁₂O.

(a)           Write down the structural formulae for three of its structural isomers.

(b)           Write down the IUPAC names of the structural isomers.

Name the following
