HELPPP PLEASE
Name the following alkane molecule:

5–bromo–9–chlorodecane

Explanation:

To name the compound given above, the following must be obtained:

1. The longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

2. The substituent group attached to the compound.

3. Position of the substituent group.

4. Combine the above to obtain the name.

Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:

1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 10. Thus, the parent name of the compound is decane.

2. The substituent groups attached to the compound are:

I. Bromine (Br) => Bromo

II. Chlorine (Cl) => Chloro

3. The position of the substituent groups are:

I. Br => carbon 5

II. Cl => carbon 9

NOTE: numbering is done alphabetically.

4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

5–bromo–9–chlorodecane

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
