The skeletal structure of an organic compound is an abbreviated representation of its molecular structure, they are quick and easy to draw.
For example, the following image shows the skeletal structure of a compound:
The peaks represent the carbons. We must remember that carbon can have a maximum of 4 bonds.
Now, I will show you how is the structure of this specific compound:
This is ternary alcohol, called 2-methyl-2-butanol. If you see carefully, you will notice that each carbon has 4 bonds. The functional groups present will be OH. The skeletal structure will be:
Answer:
Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;
They are generally more acidic.
Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.
Explanation:
According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,
an acid is a substance that can release 
ions when dissolved in water.
So, acid is a proton donor.
If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.
In the case of phenol,
the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.
The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:
Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.
So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.
Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions. The “ingredients” of a reaction are called reactants, and the end results are called products.
Answer:
Explanation:
Carbon (coke) burns in air to form carbon dioxide gas.
(i) C(s) + O2 ↑= CO2 ↑
