ONLY the ScanTron sheet will be graded; you will receive no credit for answers marked on this question sheet. 1. Below is a table listing the boiling points of a series of halogenated hydrocarbons. ‘What forces are responsible for the trend observed in this table? P=0.84 logenate: carbon ‘ofnt fethyIchloride (Ci romomet 1) lodomethane Increasing van der Waals intermolecular attraction between molecules with an increase in molecular size (e.g., number of electrons) Decreasing van der Waals intermolecular attraction between molecules with an increase in molecular size (e.g., number of electrons). Increasing Inductive stabilization of the intermolecular attraction between molecules with a decrease in the number/magatude of bond dipoles. Decreasing Inductive stabilization of the intermolecular attraction between ‘molecules with an increase in the number/magnitude of bond dipoles. None of the above are correct. =5 9 3@ Partition co-efficients are expressed as logP values. These logP values relate to the partitioning of the drug between an aqueous phase and an organic phase, typically ‘water-saturated n-octanol. The logP value is defined as: P=0,99 @) The log of the ratio of the concentration of the drug in the organic phase over the concentration of the drug in the aqueous phase. B. The log of the negative of the ratio of the concentration of the drug in the aqueous phase over the concentration of the drug in the organic phase. ‘The negative log of the ratio of the concentration of the drug in the aqueous phase over the concentration of the drug in the organic phase. The negative log of the ratio of the water solubility of the drug over the organic phase solubility of the drug, None of the above are correct. moo 3. ___ Based upon the structures of the two barbiturates below, predict their relative artition co-efficients and water solubilities “ 0; a ~O, mee NH NH 8 nn = Barbiturate A Barbiturate B Barbiturate C O88 ‘A. Barbiturate A is more water soluble and has a higher LogP than barbiturate B. Barbiturate A is less water soluble and has a higher LogP than barbiturate C. Barbiturate A is more water soluble and has a lower LogP than barbiturate C. Barbiturate B is less water soluble and has a lower LogP than barbiturate C. Barbiturate B is more water soluble and has a lower LogP than barbiturate C. 4.
