Q. 14.4 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

Write the IUPAC and common name, if any, for each of the following carboxylic acids:

a.

b.

c.

d.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

(Part a) Methanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

(Part b) $2-$bromopentanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

(Part c) $4-$Chlorobenzoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

(Part d) $3,3-$Dimethylbutanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

Step 1: Introduction (Part a)

Organic compounds are ionic compounds that neutralized basic and forming hydrogen ion ionic compounds. Each metal ion of a carbonyl carbon is connected to a phenyl ring to produce a methyl group in carbonyl group. An methyl or aliphatic ring could link toward the carboxyl member.

Step 2: Given Information (Part a)

The $"e"$ in the related hydrocarbon word is swapped for oic acid there in Molecular formula of acetic anhydride. The acidic molecule was being used to designate the cyclic structure. Acetic acid has been the most basic smelling chemical compound.

Step 3: Explanation (Part a)

(a) Methanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

                                          

Step 4: Given Information (Part b)

The $"e"$ in the related hydrocarbon word is swapped for oic acid there in Molecular formula of acetic anhydride. The acidic molecule was being used to designate the cyclic structure. Acetic acid has been the most basic smelling chemical compound.

Step 5: Explanation (Part b)

(b) $2-$bromopentanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

                                       

Step 6: Given Information (Part c)

The $"e"$ in the related hydrocarbon word is swapped for oic acid there in Molecular formula of acetic anhydride. The acidic molecule was being used to designate the cyclic structure. Acetic acid has been the most basic smelling chemical compound.

Step 7: Explanation (Part c)

(c) $4-$Chlorobenzoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.

                                        

Step 8: Given Information (Part d)

The $"e"$ in the related hydrocarbon word is swapped for oic acid there in Molecular formula of acetic anhydride. The acidic molecule was being used to designate the cyclic structure. Acetic acid has been the most basic smelling chemical compound.

Step 9: Explanation (Part d)

(d) $3,3-$Dimethylbutanoic acid is just the IUPAC name for said preceding carboxylic acid.
