What are "structural isomers"? | Socratic
Structural isomers are compounds of the same chemical formula but different connectivities. Organic chemistry provides rich opportunity for structural isomerism. Even for a simple hydrocarbon, say "butane",C_4H_10, two structural isomers may be drawn which have the same formula but different connectivities: viz. "n-butane", H_3C-CH_2CH_2CH_3, and "isobutane, " H_3C-CH (CH_3)CH_3. These ...

Question #8fa5f - Socratic
A hydroxide ion is an anion composed of one hydrogen and one oxygen atom and has an overall charge of 1^-. Its formula is ["OH"]^(-). When combined with metals, it forms compounds with a basic pH. Reaction with alkali metals. The hydroxide ion combines with alkali metal cations to form basic compounds, such as sodium hydroxide ("NaOH"). When sodium metal is reacted with water, the result is ...

Question #3046a - Socratic
In this compound Li is +1, Cl is +3 and O is -2. This compound is lithium chlorite. It may also be called lithium chlorate (III). The ions present are Li^+ and ClO_2^- The oxidation number of an element is the charge on the atom if the compound was completely ionic. Oxygen is always assigned -2 in compounds (except with fluorine). So in ClO_2^- the 2 oxygens contribute 2 x -2 = -4 Since the ...

a. True. All organic compounds contain at least one C-H bond (though the H atom (s) can be replaced by another element; for example CH4 can become CCl4). CO and CO2 are not organic because they do not contain hydrogen. b. True. The elements that compose organic compounds are covalently bonded. c. True. As you indicated, organic molecules in living systems include carbohydrates, lipids ...

Why do some ionic compounds have some solubility in water ... - Socratic
Ionic compounds are non-molecular; they do not have molecular boundaries. Ionic compounds are non-molecular; they do not have molecular boundaries. In the solid-state, each particle, each ion, is bound electrostatically to every other counterion in the lattice, and repelled by every ion of the same charge. If you sum all these attractions and repulsions up (which can certainly be done ...

Question #5fed7 + Example - Socratic
Compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are organic. In living things, organic compounds are often called biomolecules, but they are still organic. Carbon and hydrogen are found in all organic compounds and are called hydrocarbons. However, sometimes the hydrogen atoms are replaced by atoms of other elements. For example, methane, "CH"_4, can react with chlorine and produce carbon ...

What are some examples of ionic compounds? + Example - Socratic
Lets take the ionic formula for Calcium Chloride, CaCl_2. Calcium is an Alkaline Earth Metal in the second column of the periodic table. This means that calcium has 2 valence electrons it readily gives away in order to seek the stability of the octet. This makes calcium a Ca^(+2) cation. Chlorine is a Halogen in the 17th column or p^5 group. Chlorine has 7 valence electrons. It needs one ...

Explanation: Hydroxymethyl compounds have a substituent of #-CH_2-OH#, so I'd say that compounds with those functional groups will be classified as hydroxymethyl compounds.
