Question

Name Chem 227 Exam #1 I. CIRCLE the correct answer: TRUE-FALSE questions 1) Alkanes and cycloalkanes show cis- tranu isomerism. 2) Alkenes and alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons. 3) Alkenes and alkynes are nonppolar molecules. 4) When 5) Between a strong acid and a weak acid, the stronger acid will give rise to the stronger conjugate base. 6) Alkene addition reactions involve breaking pi bond and forming two new sigma bonds in its place. 7) The foundation of Markovnikov's rule is the relative stability of carboncation intermediate. 8) The carbon-carbon double bond is a combination of two sigma bonds. 9) A functional group is a group of atoms in an organic molecule that undergoes a predictable set (A) TRUE A) TRUE (A) TRUE (A) TRUE (A) TRUE (A) TRUE (A) TRUE (A) TRUE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE (B) FALSE compairing the relative strength of acids, the stronger acid has the smaller pKa. of chemical reaction.

Explanation / Answer

11) True

Acid-catalyzed addition of H2O to an alkene is called hydration.

14) True
