The functional groups in an organic compound can frequently be deduced from its infrared absorption spectrum. A compound contain

ing C, H, and O exhibits intense absorption at 1720 cm-1. No additional information is available. List possible classes for which there is positive evidence.
Relative absorption intensity: (s)=strong, (m)=medium, (w)=weak.

What functional class(es) does the compound belong to?
List only classes for which evidence is given here. Attach no significance to evidence not cited explicitly.
Do not over-interpret exact absorption band positions. None of your inferences should depend on small differences like 10 to 20 cm-1.

a. alkane (List only if no other functional class applies.)
b. alkene h. amine
c. terminal alkyne i. aldehyde or ketone
d. internal alkyne j. carboxylic acid
e. arene k. ester
f. alcohol l. nitrile
g. ether

Answer:

The class of this compound is <u>aldehyde or ketone (i).</u>

Explanation:

Absorption peak at 1720 cm-1 shows the presence of a carbonyl group, possibly an aldehyde or ketone with C=O bond.

Further information on molecular formula would be required for structural elucidation.

Who made the idea that as you go down the periodic table the atomic radius increases and the first ionization energy decreases?
bekas [8.4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The idea that as we go down the periodic table the atomic radius increases and first ionization energy decreases was given by Henry Moosely after he made some changes in the periodic table, the theory proposed by Mendeleev.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Both these trends were well explained and supported by genuine reasons.
  • As we go down a group in periodic table, a new shell is added at each level, which increases the size and hence the radius of the atom and the size of atom increases which means the outermost shell is increasingly moving farther from the atom.
  • Due to this fact, electrons experience less attractive force from the nucleus and electrons are easily removed, so the first ionization energy decreases.

Identify the type of reaction, write the products with phases, and balance. Show all work.
iren [92.7K]
The correct classification of the reactions are as follows:

<span>1) 2Mg(s) + O2(g)----> 2MgO (s)
It is a synthesis reaction or a combination reaction. It involves the bonding of the reactant molecules forming one single molecule with new set of properties.

2) Na(s) + Cl2(g)------> NaCl(s)
It is a combination reaction as well, the same as the first reaction.

3). PbCO3(s)------> PbO(s)+Co2(g)
It is a decomposition reaction where a single molecule is breaks down into multiple molecules.

4). Ch4(g) + 2O2(g)----> CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)
It is a combustion reaction since it involves the reaction with oxygen and the production od carbon dioxide and water.</span>

Some commercially available algaecides for swimming pools claim to contain 7% copper. Could the method used in this experiment t
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

  1. 7% copper implies 7 w/v%(weight/volume %) of copper. This implies a 100 mL algaecide arrangement contains 7 grams of copper.  
  2. Henceforth we have a thought of the measure of copper that ought to be available in a given example of algaecide.  
  3. Indeed, even a 1 mL algaecide test is sufficient to discover the percentage of copper in it.  
  4. so a 25mL sample of algaecide must have around 1.75g of copper.
