Is Acetaminophen ionic, molecular or organic compound

Answer: A molecular compound.

Acetaminophen is an interesting compound in that has at least 3 specific types of functional groups.

LOOK UP THE STRUCTURE FOR Acetaminophen. It will make it clearer.

Or,

Draw a Benzene ring. This is the archetypal “aromatic ring”. 6 carbons in a ring with 3 alternating unsaturations or “double bonds”. It is planar, and follows the 2n + 2 rule for aromaticity. (Where n = 2, so (2 x 2) + 2 = 6. (The three unsaturations; you may not have seen all this yet, but you will, so bear with me).

The 2nd functional group, a -OH or a Hydroxyl group, behaves VERY differently on an aromatic ring than on an alkane. The resonance stabilization (of the aromatic ring), allows the Hydrogen to disassociate from the -OH to yield Aromatic ring—O - + H+ when it is in a polar solution, like water. Phenol is the simplest example.

3rd functional group is a methyl Amide. This amide is —NH—COCH3 (trans). Amides are a N bonded to a H and a carbon bearing a double bonded Oxygen, and the same carbon, in this example, a methyl group. There is a resonance between the N and O, but the structure you see is the lowest energy and most stable. Place the —OH Exactly opposite on the ring to the methyl amide, in the 1,4, or para position.

This may be overdoing it, but it never hurts to learn functional groups as soon as possible.

Answer:

Organic compound

Explanation:

Acetominophen's molecular formula is C8H9NO2. Right from the formula you can also see that the compound has C (carbon) in it, therefore making it an organic compound (in which the definition is that the compound contains carbon in it).

Acetone, a common solvent, has density 0.79g/cm3 at 20 degrees celcius. What is the volume of 85.1g of acetone at 20 degrees cel
RoseWind [281]
1)

a)

D = 0.79 g/cm³           m = 85.1 g

D = m / V

0.79 = 85.1 / V

V = 85.1 / 0.79 => 107.72 cm³
____________________________________________
b) D = m / V

0.79 = m / 125

m = 0.79 x 125 => 98.75 g

hope this helps!

The table below shows the number of sub-atomic particles in an atom of sodium. Sub-atomic Particles Sub-atomic Particle Number P
AlexFokin [52]

Answer is: the amu of a sodium atom is 23.

The unified atomic mass unit (amu) is a standard unit of atom mass.

One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (proton or neutron).

The unified atomic mass unit is equal 1.66·10⁻²⁷ kg.

n(p⁺) = 11; number of protons in sodium atom.

n(n°) = 12; number of neutrons of sodium atom.

n(p⁺ + n°) = 11 + 12.

n(p⁺ + n°) = 23; number of nucleons in sodium atom.
