combinations to the answer.
A
1, 2 and 3 are correct
B
1 and 2 only are correct
C
2 and 3 only are correct
D
1 only is correct
Define structural isomers as compounds with the same molecular formula, but different structural formulae, including C4H10 as CH3CH2CH2CH3 and CH3CH(CH3)CH3 and C4H8 as CH3CH2CH=CH2 and CH3CH=CHCH3
Describe the formation of covalent bonds in simple molecules, including \( H_2 \), \( Cl_2 \), \( H_2O \), \( CH_4 \), \( NH_3 \), \( HCl \), \( CH_3OH \), \( C_2H_4 \), \( O_2 \), \( CO_2 \) and \( N_2 \). Use dot-and-cross diagrams to show the electronic configurations in these and similar molecules
Name and draw the structural and displayed formulae of unbranched: (a) alkanes (b) alkenes, including but-1-ene and but-2-ene (c) alcohols, including propan-1-ol, propan-2-ol, butan-1-ol and butan-2-ol (d) carboxylic acids (e) the products of the reactions stated in sections 11.4–11.7 containing up to four carbon atoms per molecule
