The molecular formula for compound is mass of compound is 0.670 g.
To calculate number of atoms first calculate number of moles in the compound as follows:
Molar mass of is 283.886 g/mol, thus,
Thus, number of mole of is 0.00236 mol.
From the molecular formula 1 mole of has 2 mol of P (phosphorus) and 5 mol of O (oxygen).
Thus, number of moles of P and O in 0.00236 mol of will be:
Similarly,
Now, in 1 mol of an element there are atoms.
Number of atoms of P will be:
Similarly, number of atoms of O will be:
Total number of atoms will be sum of number of atoms of P and O:
Therefore, total number of atoms in will be .
I think because its the only one to be liquid at normal temperatures.
<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
