Organic Chemistry 6th Edition - Solutions by Chapter

The vertical distance from the middle of a wave to the peak or trough. (7.1)

A conformation of cyclohexane in which all bond angles are fairly close to 109.5° and many hydrogen atoms are eclipsing each other.

The volume of a fixed amount of gas maintained at constant pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas. (5.3)

A lone pair or charge that is participating in resonance.

The circulation of electron density in a molecule in an applied magnetic fi eld.

A method of problem solving in which units are carried through all calculations. Dimensional analysis ensures that the final answer of a calculation has the desired units. (Section 1.6)

An organic compound that has an OR group attached to a carbonyl; it is the product of a reaction between a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. (Section 24.4)

The process by which a protein adopts its biologically active shape. (Section 24.7)

A compound containing a halogen atom bonded to a benzene ring. Given the symbol Ar!X

The heat evolved in a given process can be expressed as the sum of the heats of several processes that, when added, yield the process of interest. (Section 5.6)

A hypothetical gas whose pressure, volume, and temperature behavior is completely described by the ideal-gas equation. (Section 10.4)

A carbohydrate for which the chirality center farthest from the carbonyl group will have an OH group pointing to the left in the Fischer projection.

Asynthetic technique that enables the transformationof a halide into a carboxylic acid with theintroduction of two new carbon atoms.

Compounds formed when hydrogen reacts with transition metals; these compounds contain the hydride ion, H-. (Section 22.2)

Group 1A–7A elements react to achieve an outer shell of eight valence electrons.

A reaction that is performed with photochemical excitation (usually UV light).

Matter that has a fixed composition and distinct properties. (Section 1.2)

A homogeneous alloy, where two or more elements are distributed randomly and uniformly throughout the solid. (Section 12.3)
