II. Explain why the name is incorrect and then write the
correct name
6,6- dimethlcyclohexene
1, 1- dimethlcyclohexene
The name 6,6-
dimethylclohexene is an
incorrect name for the
structure. The name should be
1,1-dimethylcyclohexene because
in naming IUPAC compound, the
ring carbon should be numbered
in a way that gives the
substituents the lowest location
number possible.
III. Name the following compounds using IUPAC Naming.
A. 3-METHYL-2PENTANOL
B. 1,1,4,5-TETRAMETHYLCYCLOHEPTANE
IV. WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE
Guide SOLUBILITY OR MISCIBILITY OF A
SUBSTANCE?
Question:
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE
SOLUBILITY OR MISCIBILITY OF A
SUBSTANCE BECAUSE THIS CAN HELP
DETERMINE THE DIFFERENT SUBSTANCE
THAT CAN DISSOLVE WITH ANOTHER
SUBSTANCE.
