(CH3)2NH (dimethylamine) is more soluble in water since it can hydrogen bond with water. Alkanes are not capable of hydrogen bonding with water.
HWQ21 Draw an acceptable structure for 3-ethyl-3-methylhexane
*Why would we not draw a hexagon? * does it matter whether it's on top or bottom?

- Dispersion forces - dipole-dipole interactions - hydrogen bonds

HWQ24 4) Provide an acceptable name for the alkane shown below.
- In this case, we know to expand the (CH3)2, in order to get a true length of the molecule. As a result, we notice that the longest carbon is 7. We then move on to identify that the ethyl is at carbon 2, and we begin numbering the chain from there. As a result, the name of this would be 2,5-dimethyheptane
HWQ22 2) Draw the most stable conformation of trans-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane.
- This is the most stable position, only because we would not want to have the T-butyl on the axial position, as this would be very unstable for the molecule to have the bulky substituent not in the equatorial position. We can see that it is trans, because both substituents are in different positions than each other

-We know that we will name this hexanol because there are 6 carbons with an OH, meaning that the -e ending will be turned into hexanol. Then we know to begin counting from the closest side to the hydroxyl functional group, as this take priority from the halogens. At the end, we know to always place them in alphabetical order. As a result, the name of this compound is 6-chloro-2-hexanol

HWQ29 Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine yet the carbon-fluorine bond in CH3-F is shorter than CH3-Cl. Explain.
Chlorine is a larger atom than fluorine and uses a 3p rather than 2p orbital. The overlap of a 2sp3 orbital with a 3p orbital is not as good as the overlap of a 2sp3 orbital with a 2p orbital, causing the bond to be longer and weaker. aren't shorter bonds stronger?

HWQ1 1) Which compound is more soluble in water? Briefly explain your choice CH3OCH3 or CH3CH2OH
For a substance to be soluble in water, it should form H-bonding with water. To form H-bonding the substance should be polar in nature. For a molecule to form hydrogen bonding, the hydrogen atom should be attached with one of the electronegative atoms like F, O, N. In the case of CH3OCH3 (Dimethyl ether), all of the H-atoms are attached with a Carbon, which creates a stable nonpolar molecule with less electronegativity. As a result, it does not form H-bonding with water. However, CH3CH2OH (methanol) has one H atom directly bonded with the high electronegativity O atom, thus creating a polar molecule and can for H-bonding with water. However, we know that CH3OCH3 (Dimethyl ether) is also soluble in water as alcohol with less than 4 carbon usually are. However, CH3OCH3(Dimethyl ether) can only accept a hydrogen bond from water, as it has no hydrogen which can hydrogen bond to water. As opposed to CH3CH2OH (MEthanol), which is more soluble in water since it can donate a hydrogen to water and accept a hydrogen to water
HWQ15 Draw the most stable conformer of the following compound

How come the Ch3 is an axial position instead of an equatorial position
Why is the boat conformation of cyclohexane less stable?

How do we label primary, secondary, and tertiary Hydrogens?
Hydrogens carry the label of the carbon. So if a hydrogen is attached to a primary carbon, we say that it is a primary hydrogen
HWQ25 Draw the most stable conformer of trans-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclohexane.
If we are searching for the most stable, why do we place the CH3 in the axial position VS the equatorial position, wouldn't we want it to be in the most stable position????

In this case, we know to treat the cycloalkane structure as the heteroatom, and treat the longest carbon chain is the parent hydrocarbon

HWQ37 Would you expect sodium chloride (NaCl) to be highly soluble in the organic solvent hexane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3)? Briefly explain your answer.
One would not expect NaCl to be highly soluble in hexane. NaCl is an ionic solid (i.e., a very polar material) while hexane is nonpolar. Nonpolar solvent molecules do not solvate ions well. The attractions of oppositely charged ions to each other are vastly greater than the weak attractions of the ions for the solvent.
