Question and Answers:
1. Define vital force theory who proved it false.
Organic compounds were synthesized in living systems under the influence of vital force.
Friedrich whole’s proved it false.
2. What is catenation?
Carbon has the unique ability to form bonds with other atoms of carbon giving rise to a large molecule. This property of inter connecting c-c bonds is called catenation.
3. Name the simplest hydrocarbon.
Methane CH4
4. Mention the use of Toluene
1) Solvent for oils fats, Paints, laciuers, resin etc.
2) Manufacture of TNT (trainitrotolucne) explosive.
5. Write the molecular structural formula of benzene.
6. What is functional group? Mention any two functional groups.
Functional groups are the siles where reactions occur in organic molecules.
7. Alcohols have covalent bond why?
Unlike bases (-OH) functional group shares electron with carbon atom hence alcohol have covalent bond.
8. Write the molecular structural formula of cyclohexane.
9. What are fatty acids? Live an example.
Long chain alkanes or alkenes if contains a terminal carboxylic acid group (-COOH) are called fatty acids.
Ex : Stearic acid (C17H35COOH)
