From the problem statement, this is a conversion problem. We are asked to convert from units of kilojoules to units of calories. To do this, we need a conversion factor which would relate the different units involved. We either multiply or divide this certain value to the original measurement depending on what is asked. From literature, we will find that 1 kilojoule is equal to 239 calories. We do as follows:
<span>
2.2125 kJ ( 239 calories / 1 kJ ) = 528.79 calories

What is the suffix for -<br>✯ Alcohols<br>✯ Ketones<br>✯ Halogens<br><br>thankyou ~​
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

ane, al, keto

ol, al, keto

ol, al, one

ol, ane, one.

Explanation:

The suffix –ol is used in organic chemistry principally to form names of organic compounds containing the hydroxyl (–OH) group, mainly alcohols (also phenol). The suffix was extracted from the word alcohol. The suffix also appears in some trivial names with reference to oils (from Latin oleum, oil).

Functional group is a ketone, therefore suffix = -one

Hydrocarbon structure is an alkane therefore -ane

The longest continuous chain is C5 therefore root = pent

The first point of difference rule requires numbering from the left as drawn to make the ketone group locant 2-

pentan-2-one or 2-pentanone
