Write structural formulae for compounds named as-
(a) 1-Bromoheptane
(b) 5-Bromoheptanoic acid
(a)The structural formulae of 1-Bromoheptane is: C7H15Br (as hept is denoting presence of 7 carbon atoms, 1-bromo is showing that at 1st carbon, there is a bromine atom attached, and “ane” shows all are singly bonded.)
(b)The structural formulae of 5-Bromoheptanoic acid is: C7H13O2Br ( as hept is denoting presence of 7 carbon atoms, 5-bromo is showing that at 5th carbon, there is a bromine atom attached, and “ane” shows all are singly bonded and “oic acid” is indicating –COOH group.)
