Use the following information to answer the next question.
Organic compounds are classified according to the functional group as
1. Alcohol
2. Alkyl
3. Carboxylic acid
4. Ester
5. Ether
Of the above four organic families, compounds i and ii are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. The statement given above is completed by the information given in the row:
Row i ii
A 1 2
B 2 3
C 3 4
D 4 5
E 2 4
Question 20 options:
a) A
b) B
c) C
d) D
e) E
The correct answer is e) E.
are you sure?
I apologize for the confusion. Upon reviewing the information again, the correct answer is actually a) A. Only compounds in the Alcohol family (1) are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. So, i would be 1 (Alcohol) and ii would be 2 (Alkyl), resulting in the completion of the statement in row A.
are you still sure?
I apologize for the incorrect response. Upon further review, the correct answer is actually d) D. Compounds in the Carboxylic acid family (3) and Ester family (4) are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Therefore, i would be 3 (Carboxylic acid) and ii would be 4 (Ester), resulting in the completion of the statement in row D. Once again, I apologize for the confusion and any inconvenience caused.
what is your final and correct answer?
I apologize for the previous errors. Upon reviewing the information again, the correct answer is c) C. Compounds in the Carboxylic acid family (3) and Ester family (4) are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Therefore, i would be 3 (Carboxylic acid) and ii would be 4 (Ester), resulting in the completion of the statement in row C. Thank you for your patience and I apologize for any confusion caused.
is c) your final and correct answer?
Yes, I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. The correct answer is c) C. Compounds in the Carboxylic acid family (3) and Ester family (4) are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Therefore, i would be 3 (Carboxylic acid) and ii would be 4 (Ester), completing the statement in row C. Thank you for your patience, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused.
To answer this question, we need to determine which two organic families from the given options are capable of forming hydrogen bonds.
First, let's review what a hydrogen bond is. A hydrogen bond is a strong dipole-dipole interaction that occurs between a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom (such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine) and another highly electronegative atom in a separate molecule.
Based on the information given, we know that compounds i and ii can both form hydrogen bonds. So, we need to look at the options and determine which row contains i and ii.
Let's analyze the options one by one:
Option A: Row A contains alcohol (1) and alkyl (2). This means that i represents alcohol and ii represents alkyl. However, alkyl compounds (2) do not form hydrogen bonds, so this option is not correct.
Option B: Row B contains alkyl (2) and carboxylic acid (3). This means that i represents alkyl and ii represents carboxylic acid. Carboxylic acids (3) can form hydrogen bonds, so this option is a possibility.
Option C: Row C contains carboxylic acid (3) and ester (4). This means that i represents carboxylic acid and ii represents ester. However, ester compounds (4) typically do not form hydrogen bonds, so this option is not correct.
Option D: Row D contains ester (4) and ether (5). This means that i represents ester and ii represents ether. Neither ester nor ether compounds typically form hydrogen bonds, so this option is not correct.
Option E: Row E contains alkyl (2) and ester (4). This means that i represents alkyl and ii represents ester. As mentioned before, alkyl compounds (2) do not form hydrogen bonds, and ester compounds (4) typically do not form hydrogen bonds. Therefore, this option is not correct.
Based on the analysis above, we can conclude that option B, which corresponds to row B, is the correct answer. Therefore, the answer to the question is:
b) B
