A functional group is a group of atoms that determines many of the properties of an organic molecule.
For example functional group for alcohol is hydroxyl group (-OH) and for carboxylic acid is <span>carboxyl group (-COOH).
</span>Alpha carbon is <span>the first </span>carbon<span> atom after the carbon that attaches to the functional group.</span>

Formula los siguientes compuesto: Dietil eter, Etanol, Propanotriol, Acido Propanodioico, Pentanal, Pentano-2,4-diona, Metanoato
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

En este caso para formular los compuestos, debes identificar el grupo funcional principal de la molecula. Una vez que eso está hecho, puedes intentar formularlo.

Empezaremos primero identificando el grupo funcional principal de la molécula, para luego formularlo correctamente.

Dietil eter: la terminación eter al final significa que pertenece al grupo de los éteres, el cual tiene como formula general R - O - R.

Etanol: debido a que termina en ol, este grupo pertenece a los alcoholes. Para formularlo solo se dibuja la molecula del etano, junto a un enlace con el grupo OH, como su formula general R - OH.

Propanotriol: igualmente termina en ol, por lo tanto es un alcohol, sin embargo, en este caso, tambien tiene la terminación prefija tri, asi que significa que hay 3 grupos OH en la molecula.

Acido propanodioico: esta es sencilla, porque empieza como acido, y solo hay un grupo funcional que empieza así y son los acidos carboxilicos, es decir, el grupo COOH (R - COOH) que es el carboxilo. Tiene el prefijo di, antes del oico, por lo que son dos carboxilos presentes en la molecula.

Pentanal: el sufijo al, significa que pertenece al grupo de los aldehidos, en este caso, posee el grupo carbonilo H - C = O.

Pentano - 2,4 - diona: la terminación ona significa que pertenece al grupo de las cetonas, (R - CO - R), parecido a los aldehidos, con la diferencia de que tiene grupos alquilos en lugar de un hidrogeno.

Metanoato de metilo: la terminación ato de ilo, pertenece a los esteres, (R - COOR) derivado de los acidos carboxilicos.

De aqui en adelante solo mencionaré los grupos funcionales pues ya se explicó el por que, por sus terminaciones:

Ciclohexano - 1.3 - diol: este pertenece a los alcoholes.

Acido heptanoico: acido carboxilico

Ciclobutil metil eter: eteres

Acetato de etilo: ester

2-metilbenzaldehído: aldehído unido a un grupo aromatico como el benceno.

Ciclohexanona: un ciclo (cadena cerrada) unido a un grupo carbonilo.

Butanona: cetona.

fredd [130]

Answer:

Tamoxifen is an irreversible, competitive inhibitor.

Explanation:

In order to binds to the active site of the estrogen receptor protein, tamoxifen have to compete with the other chemical compound, and inhibits the estrogen release, so it is a competitive inhibitor. Then, you said that when tamoxifen binds to the receptor,  the protein is permanently deactivated, so it is also irreversible.

What is the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium? Explain please
Alik [6]

Answer:

116 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of mole of calcium = 2.9 moles

Mass of calcium =.?

The mole and mass of a substance are related according to the following formula:

Mole = mass / molar mass

With the above formula, we can obtain the mass of calcium. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of mole of calcium = 2.9 moles

Molar mass of calcium = 40 g/mol

Mass of calcium =.?

Mole = mass / molar mass

2.9 = mass of calcium / 40

Cross multiply

Mass of calcium = 2.9 × 40

Mass of calcium = 116 g

Therefore, the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g.
