      b.  Three amides having the formula ${\mathrm{C}}_7{\mathrm{H}}_{11}\mathrm{NO}$ are 

Introduction to the Concept

A chemical compound's structural formula is a graphic depiction of the molecular structure (derived by structural chemistry methods) that shows how the atoms might be organised in real three-dimensional space.

Determination of Three acid chlorides having the formula C 6 H 9 C l O

a)

Here the acid chlorides are,

Thus here there is an unsaturation present.

Determination of Three amides having the formula C 7 H 11 N O

b)

Here the amides are unsaturated and cyclic, i.e.

The unsaturation has been determined by the quantity of hydrogen atoms used
