Which chemical class does phenobarbital belong to?
1 answer:
<span>Phenobarbital is derivative of Barbituric Acid and Barbituric Acid is derivative of Urea. (structures shown in Fig below)
Urea has H</span>₂N- group attached to Carbonyl Group (C=O), and such class of comounds conataining H₂N-C=O bond are called as Amides.
Result:
So, <span>Phenobarbital belongs to Amides.</span>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>Radiation energy is absorbed by photons
The energy in one photon can be formulated as
Where
h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)
f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves (/s or Hz)
f = c / λ
c = speed of light
= 3.10⁸ m/s
λ = wavelength
The wavelength(λ) of purple light is 400 x 10⁻⁹ m, so the frequency :
