<u>Answer:</u> The correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane
<u>Explanation:</u>
The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:
- Select the longest possible carbon chain.
- For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
- A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
- If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.
We are given:
An alkane having chemical name as 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane. This will not be the correct name of the alkane because the longest possible carbon chain has 7 Carbon atoms, not 6 carbon atoms
The image of the given alkane is shown in the image below.
Hence, the correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane
Answer:
Triacylglycerols (triglycerides) are non-polar or hydrophobic molecules
Glycerophospholipids (phosphoglycerides) are polar or hydrophilic
Explanation:
Triacylglycerides (TGs) are esters synthesized by the esterification of three molecules of glycerol and fatty acid, and this is essentially by the replacement of the three hydroxyl groups on glycerol with three fatty acids. This removes the hydrophilic property from the glycerol molecule hence TGs are only soluble in non-polar solvents like alcohol and benzene, and TGs are therefore the storage forms of fats in adipose tissues.
Glycerophospholipids are formed by the addition of two hydrophobic fatty acid groups and one phosphoric acid (phosphate group) to glycerol (alcohol) leaving a hydrophilic head (phosphate end) and a hydrophobic tail (fatty acid ends). This amphipathic property of this molecule makes it a suitable molecule for membrane structures, especially of cells (lipid bi-layer), with an arrangement where the hydrophilic side interacts with the aqueous environment, while the hydrophobic side makes contact with the non-aqueous environment.
Answer:Hence, the name of the NaOH is Sodium hydroxide.
Explanation:
In strong base NaOH is made up of three element sodium , oxygen and hydrogen.
NaOH dissociates is into cation and anion in its aqueous solution:
While naming the ternary compound:
- First write the name of cation present, here the cation is of sodium that
. - followed by space then write name of the anion , here anion present in a polyatomic anion that
, the name of this polyatomic anion is hydroxide.
Hence, the name of the NaOH is Sodium hydroxide.
