Many organic molecules follow specific formulas to help identify them. For Alkanes this is: C_nH_2n+2 (n being the total number of carbon atoms). However, this is not the case with the...

Alkenes have stereoisomers because no free rotation possible around the C=C double bond, as to do so would break the pi-bond between the two atoms. which requires energy to break.

The ketone group is planar and the cyanide ion has equal chance of attacking above or below the plane. Therefore a racemic mixture of the product is formed and the product shows no optical activity

C6H6 + CH3C(O)Cl = C6H5C(O)CH3 + HCl

This is an example of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction, with the product being a ketone. The AlCl3 serves as a catalyst, converting the acyl chlo...

Formula of Iron 3 Nitrate is Fe(NO3)3. Moles = mass/Mr.

Already given mass = 2.16g

Want to work out amount in moles.

Need to calculate Mr of Iron 3 nitrate, put into equation with mas...
