The number of particles (molecules, atoms, compounds, etc.) per mole of a substances is known as Avagadro number. It is equal to 6.022×10^23 mol-1 and is expressed as NA.


Number of moles is the amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of pure carbon-12. So, 1 mol contains 6.022×10^23 elementary entities of the substance. Since 6.022 x 10^23 is the Avagadro number, one mole is equal to Avagadro number.


One mole of a substance is the ratio of mass of the substance by the molecular mass of the substance. Thus the mass of one mole of a substance is equal to the substance's molecular weight. Thus one mole of a substance is the atomic mass unit of a substance and since one mole is equivalent to the Avagadro number,we can conclude that one Avagadro number is one atomic mass unit of the substance.

What is the iupac name of the following compound? <br><br> 2,2-dimethyl-4-ethylheptane
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The IUPAC name of the compound has already been given which is 2,2-dimethyl-4-ethylheptane.

Explanation:

The IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) is an authority in chemistry that provides a guideline and standardized methods in the naming of compounds formed from the periodic table.

In order the give an IUPAC name to a compound, certain steps needs to be followed, these includes:

--> Identify the functional group in the compound as this will form the suffix. For example if the functional group is an alkane the suffix will be -ane.

--> Identify the longest carbon chain (it may not be a straight chain) that contains the functional group. This forms the prefix. Example: if the longest carbon chain is 7 carbon atoms then the prefix will be hept-

--> All the carbons of the longest chain should be numbered

--> Identify branched groups on the chain and name them according to the number of carbon atoms. They usually end with -yl.

--> Finally, combine the elements of the name is a single word.

The structural formula of the IUPAC compound can be found in the attached file for a better understanding. The branched groups are circled.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A. Constitutional or structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

B. Conformational isomers are compounds having the same atom to atom connectivity but differ by rotation about one or more single bonds.

C. Stereo isomers are compounds having the same molecular mass and atom to atom connectivity but different arrangement of atoms and groups in space.

I. Enantiomers are stereo isomers (optical isomers particularly) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

II. Diasteromers are optical isomers that are not mirror images of each other.

Both diasteromers and enantiomers are types of optical isomers which in turn is one of the types of stereo isomers.

Stereo isomers differ from conformational isomers in that the arrangement of atoms in stereo isomers is permanent while conformational isomers results from free rotations in molecules about single bonds.
