What is the structural isomer of C8H18 with the lowest boiling point?

In organic chemistry, alkanes such as C8H18 have structural isomers. The more these isomers are branched the lower the boiling point is. The reason for this, is that un-branched alkanes have a higher mass area, they are more likely to have more potential points of attachments for other atoms or molecules which would then raise intramolecular forces thus increasing boiling points. The structural isomer of C8H18 that has the boiling point is systematically known as 2,2,3,3-tetramethylbutane.


What physical property is identical for butane and 2- methylpropane?

Both of these compounds are alkanes with four carbon atoms and both of these compounds have the molecular formula C4H10. These are structural isomers of each other.


What is structural Efficiency?

Structural Efficiency= Maximum Mass Supported _______________________ (Divided By) Mass of Structure


Advantages of Mass spectroscopy?

Mass spectroscopy is a highly sensitive technique that can accurately determine the molecular weight of a compound. It can provide information about the chemical structure and composition of a sample. Mass spectroscopy is also versatile and can be used in various fields like chemistry, biology, and environmental science.


How do you define structural efficiency score?

If you want to find the structural efficiency the equation for structural efficiency is: maxmum mass the structure can withstand divided by the structure mass.


What are the differences among X ray Nuclear Mass Resonance Spectroscopy and Mass spectroscopy?

Everything. About the only thing they have in common is "you learn about them in analytical chemistry class."Except "Nuclear Mass Resonance Spectroscopy", which doesn't exist and I assume is an error that should have read "Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy".X-Ray spectroscopy gives you the conformation in a fairly direct (okay, it's actually not all that direct) manner.NMR spectroscopy mainly gives you chemical structure information; you can finesse it a bit (NOESY and related techniques) to give some conformational information.Mass spectroscopy is pretty much chemical structure only (and, again, it's not all that direct, it just tells you what fragments the molecule breaks apart into; figuring out how they fit together is your problem).


How do you distinguish isotopes by mass spectrometer?

Isotopes (of the same element) have different mass, this is measured by the mass spectrometer

1) Matter has mass. 2) It occupies space.


What is massspectroscopy?

mass spectrometry, also called mass spectroscopy, analytic technique by which chemical substances are identified by the sorting of gaseous ions in electric and magnetic fields according to their mass-to-charge ratios.
