Question 1

Which of the following best describes a hydrophobic molecule?

Accepted Answer

A molecule that does not interact with water and tends to repel it.

Question 2

During a demonstration, methylene blue dye ended up in the water, while red dye did not. What property of the dyes explains this observation?

Accepted Answer

Methylene blue is hydrophilic and red dye is hydrophobic.

Question 3

If the hydrophobic outer layer of the cornea is damaged, which of the following is most likely to occur?

Accepted Answer

The hydrophilic inner layer is exposed, allowing hydrophilic dyes to stick to the damage.

Question 4

Which of the following statements about drawing organic molecules is correct?

Accepted Answer

Every carbon atom in a ring that is not labeled with an element is assumed to be a carbon with enough hydrogens to make four bonds.

Question 5

Which of the following best defines an isomer?

Accepted Answer

Compounds with the same molecular formula but different arrangements of atoms.

Question 6

Which type of isomerism is demonstrated by your left and right hands?

Accepted Answer

Enantiomerism

Question 7

Which of the following is a correct example of a structural isomer?

Accepted Answer

Butane and isobutane

Question 8

The liver can distinguish between glucose and fructose, even though they have the same molecular formula. What type of isomerism does this illustrate?

Accepted Answer

Structural isomerism

Question 9

Which of the following statements about cis-trans isomers is correct?

Accepted Answer

Cis-trans isomers differ in the arrangement of atoms around a double bond.

Question 10

Which of the following best explains why a double bond is stronger than a single bond?

Accepted Answer

A double bond involves the sharing of two pairs of electrons between atoms.

Question 11

Given the molecular formula $$\mathrm{C_6H_{12}O_6$}$$, which of the following statements is true?

Accepted Answer

It can form different compounds with the same formula, known as isomers.

Question 12

Which of the following best describes the difference between butane and isobutane?

Accepted Answer

They are structural isomers with different bonding patterns.

Question 13

If a molecule has a cis double bond, what does this mean about the arrangement of its substituents?

Accepted Answer

The substituents are on the same side of the double bond.

Question 14

Which of the following is true about enantiomers?

Accepted Answer

They are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

Question 15

A patient is given a hydrophilic fluorescent dye to detect corneal damage. Which layer of the cornea must be exposed for the dye to stick?

Accepted Answer

The hydrophilic inner layer

Question 16

Which of the following best explains why oil and red dye do not interact with water and blue dye in the demonstration?

Accepted Answer

Oil and red dye are hydrophobic and do not mix with water.

Question 17

Which of the following is a correct statement about the number of bonds carbon forms in organic molecules?

Accepted Answer

Carbon forms four bonds in all organic molecules.

Question 18

Which of the following is a real-life example of the biological importance of isomers?

Accepted Answer

The liver's ability to distinguish between glucose and fructose, affecting metabolism.

Question 19

Which of the following best describes a structural isomer?

Accepted Answer

Compounds with the same molecular formula but different connectivity of atoms.

Question 20

Which of the following is true regarding the strength of chemical bonds?

Accepted Answer

A double bond is stronger than a single bond because it involves more shared electrons.
