Organic Chemistry: Isomers and Functional Groups


1. Draw all the possible isomers with molecular formula C3H6O. Identify the functional groups found in each case. (For now, don't worry about the question of which isomers are stable or not!)

2.

Ethanol (an alcohol with the molecular formula C2H6O) is metabolized in the liver through a two-step oxidation process. The initial product has the formula C2H4O, and is responsible for the red flushed appearance which often accompanies alcohol consumption. This is then oxidized again to the final product, which has the molecular formula C 2H4O2.

a) b)

Draw the structure of ethanol: Draw the structure of each product, and name the functional groups. Structure Functional Group

Periodic Properties II: Multiple Choice 1. a) Radium is the largest of the group; its valence electrons are in the 7s orbital, which is far from the nucleus. b) Indium is the largest of the group; its valence electrons are in the 5p orbital, whereas the others are in lower-energy orbitals. 2. a) Thallium has the lowest ionization energy of the group; its valence electrons are in a higher energy orbital than those of Ga or Se, and it has a smaller effective nuclear charge than Po. b) Cesium has the lowest ionization energy of the group; its valence electrons are in a higher energy orbital than those of Ga or Se, and it has a smaller effective nuclear charge than Bi. 3. 4. Fluorine has the most negative electron affinity because when it gains an electron, it forms the fluoride ion with a stable, complete octet. Se2 is the largest ion of the group. Of course it will be larger than the 2nd-period ions O2 and F . Plus, since it is isoelectronic with Rb+ , it has the same number of electrons but three fewer protons, meaning that the effective nuclear charge is less and the radius will be larger.

134

41. Periodic Properties III: Explanations 1. a) Se: . . . 4s24p4 As: . . . 4s24p3 has 2 electrons in one of its p-orbitals each p-orbital has one electron

Because it is somewhat unfavorable for two electrons to occupy the same orbital, Se is relatively willing to give up its p-electron to achieve an electron configuration in which each p-electron is in its own orbital. Note that this goes against the usual trend for ionization energy. b) Adding an electron to Br results in a complete octet (which is particularly stable, and thus quite favorable). c) When Rb and Na react with water, they each lose an electron to form their respective cations. Since Rb has a lower ionization energy, more total energy can be released in the reaction. 2. a) When an electron is added to fluorine, its octet is completed. b) When fluorine reacts, it almost always accepts an electron, forming fluoride ion and releasing a tremendous amount of energy (the electron affinity). This large energy release make fluorine very reactive. c) Xenon can't gain an electron (because it already has a full octet). It also can't readily lose an electron, because its ionization energy is so high. Thus it is unwilling to participate in chemical reactions. d) Although iodine can't readily lose an electron, it can readily gain an electron (unlike xenon) and form a stable, complete octet. This is the usual mode of reactivity for iodine. 42. Putting It Together: Quantum Mechanics and Electronic Structure 1. a) wavelength = 1.70 107 m b) Bi: [Xe] 6s24f145d106p3 Bi+:[Xe] 6s24f145d106p2 c) n=6, l=1 d) Element 113 would have a lower ionization energy than Bi. Element 113 would lie below thallium (Tl) on the periodic table. Its valence electrons would be in the 7p subshell (more energetic than the 6p valence electrons of Bi). Thus those 7p valence electrons would be easier to ionize. 43. Lewis Structures I: The Octet Rule

125. Electronic Structure of Coordination Compounds 1. a) d 6 high-spin; 4 "downstairs" and 2 "upstairs"; 4 unpaired electrons. b) d8 (high/low doesn't matter); 6 "downstairs" and 2 "upstairs"; 2 unpaired electrons c) d 6 low-spin; 6 "downstairs"; no unpaired electrons. d) d6 low-spin; 6 "downstairs"; no unpaired electrons. 2. [Co(NH3) 6] 3+ strongest ligands largest o absorbs violet appears yellow 3. [Co(NH3) 5(OH 2)]3+ intermediate intermediate o absorbs green appears red [CoF 6] 3 weakest ligands smallest o absorbs orange appears blue

FeF63 is d5 high-spin electron configuration with 5 unpaired electrons, all spin "up". In order to promote an electron from the lower to the higher energy level, its spin would have to "flip," which is forbidden. Thus the d5 high-spin configuration is usually colorless. (This isn't a problem for d6 Co(III)). a) Sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate (III) b) d5 low spin; 5 "downstairs"; one unpaired electron. c) NO must be slightly weaker than CN. The complex with the NO ligand absorbs light of slightly lower energy (absorbs yellow-green) in comparison with the all-CN complex (absorbs green-blue). Thus the splitting must be less when there is an NO ligand, and we conclude that the NO ligand is slightly weaker than the CN ligand. (If it were much weaker we would have seen a much more dramatic change of color.) d) Since the complex has 5 electrons in the more stable downstairs (t2g) orbitals, and no electrons in the upstairs (eg) orbitals, it will be very stable, kinetically inert, and thus the ligands will dissociate slowly.
