Here we have to draw the four isomers of the compound 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane.
The four isomers of the compound is shown in the figure.
In an organic molecule the chiral -C center is that where four (4) different groups are present. In 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane the 3 and 4 positions are chiral centers. The possible isomers of a molecule can be obtained from the formula 2n. As here 2 chiral centers are present thus number of stereoisomers will be 2×2 = 4.
The four different isomers as shown in the figure are 3R-, 4R-; 3S-, 4S; 3R, 4S and 3S-, 4R- 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane.
In the 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane the functional groups are -Br, C₂H₅, -C₃H₆F and -H for 3-position and -F, -C₂H₅, -C₃H₆ and -H for 4-position respectively.
The priority of the -3 position will be Br > C₃H₆F > C₂H₅ > H and for -4 position F > C₃H₆Br > C₂H₅ > H. If the rotation from the higher priority group to lower is clockwise and anticlockwise then the S- and R- notation are used respectively. However if the -H atom is present at the horizontal position then the notation will be reverse.
Thus the four isomers of the compound is shown.
Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.
Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L
Explanation:
According to ideal gas equation:
P = pressure of gas = 1 atm (at STP)
V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L
n = number of moles = ?
R = gas constant =
T =temperature =
According to stoichiometry:
4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride
Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = moles of carbon tetrachloride
volume of carbon tetrachloride =
Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L
