Which of the following best explains why a structural formula of a chemical compound is more useful than a molecular formula?

A
Both formulas identify the specific atoms in a particular compound. However, a structural formula also shows how the atoms in a compound are bonded together.
B
Both formulas identify the types of atoms in a particular compound. However, a structural formula also shows how many atoms of each type are in a compound.
C
Both formulas show the location of each valence electron in a particular compound. However, a structural formula also shows the ratio of protons to neutrons within a compound.
D
Both formulas show the ratio of protons to neutrons within a particular compound. However, a structural formula also shows the location of each valence electron in a compound.

What is a disadvantage of using a structural model to show a chemical compound?

A
Structural models provide minimal three-dimensional information.
B
Structural models do not identify the number and type of each atom.
C
Structural models cannot distinguish between single, double, and triple bonds.
D
Structural models cannot distinguish between different isomers of a compound.

Structural isomers are chemical compounds that have

A
the same atoms that are arranged in different orders.
B
the same atoms that are arranged in the same order.
C
the same types of bonds that are bonding the same number of carbon atoms to different atoms.
D
different types of bonds that are bonding the same number of carbon atoms to different atoms.

The compound butanol has the following structural formula.Which of these is a structural isomer of butanol?

Question illustration
A
A string of 4 C atoms are bonded above, below, left and right to H.
B
A string of 4 C atoms is bonded above, below, left, and right to H, except the second C, which is bonded below to O, which is bonded below to H.
C
A string of 4 C atoms is bonded above, below, left, and right to H, but the chain is interrupted between the first and second C, which are bonded to an O between them.
D
A string of 4 C atoms is bonded above, below, and left to H, except the last C has no H below and is double-bonded to an O to the right.
6

Which statement best describes why carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds?

C
Each carbon atom ionically bonds with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen.
D
Each carbon atom covalently bonds with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen.

B
two geometric isomers that have the same molecular formula
C
two organic compounds that have the same structural formula
D
two models of a single organic compound
