Take into account the valency of each atom. Indicate the Formal Charge of the Atom, if there is any on the proposed lewis structure. 2. C5H12O (at least 1 ether, at least 1 Alcohol)arrow_forward
- When Alfred Werner was developing the field of coordination chemistry, it was argued by some that the optical activity he observed in the chiral complexes he had prepared was due to the presence of carbon atoms in themolecule. To disprove this argument, Werner synthesized a chiral complex of cobalt that had no carbon atoms in it, and he was able to resolve it into its enantiomers. Design a cobalt(III) complex that would be chiral if it could be synthesized and that contains no carbon atoms.arrow_forwardIsobutylene, CH2=C(CH3)2, is used to prepare cold-flow rubber. Draw a structure for the addition polymer formed from this alkene.arrow_forwardAre the following molecules chiral or achiral? If they are chiral, identify the chiral carbon atom(s).(a) Pentan-3-ol (b) 2-Bromobutane(c) 2-Methylcyclohexanolarrow_forward
