I have a couple of doubts people:
a) Could somebody help me out with naming the 'isomers' for example, how should we know where to write 1,2-dimethyl, etc etc
b) Displacement of ammonia from its salts (explain please!)
c) Displacement reactions in metals, e/g with nitrates, hydroxides etc!!
a) i doubt anyone can explain without a diagram, but ill try, first u will hace the carbon chain eg. -C-C-C-C-C-C- , and hydrogen all around it , so this is the alkane: pentane
so u replace a hydrogen on the second carbon from the left, with a methane so its gonna become
H CH
3 H H H
H---C---C----C---C----C---H
H H H H H
//// this would be the new product, which is pentane but with methane on carbon2 , so its going to be 2-methylpentane ,, if it had 2 methyl- functional groups then it would be (Number of carbons seperated by(,), depending on where the functional groups are) dimethylpentane
if it was 3 then it would be tri, 4 would be tetra.
B) ammonia is only displaced from its salts when it is reacted with a
metal hydroxide, u do not need to know how it is done
C) please be more precise, so i can explain, give example or watever
