a compound that is 85.6% C and 14.4%H and has a molar mass of 56g reacts with water amd sulphuric acid to produce a compound that reacts with acidic potassium dichromate solution to produce ketone. what is the name of the original compound? Draw the structure of three isomers of original compound and give their Iupac names
Added by Fuad M.
Step 1
The percentages given can be treated as grams, so we have 85.6 g of carbon and 14.4 g of hydrogen. The molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g/mol. Therefore, we have (85.6 g C) / (12 g/mol) = 7.13 mol C and (14.4 g H) / (1 g/mol) Show more…
