Accepted Answer

Both an amino group ($$ \mathrm{-NH_2$} ) $$and a carboxyl group ($$ \mathrm{-COOH} )$$

Question 4

Which of the following statements about benzene is correct?

Accepted Answer

Benzene exhibits resonance, meaning its electrons are delocalized over the ring structure.

Question 5

What is the product when ethene ($$ \mathrm{C_2H_4} ) $$undergoes hydration?

Accepted Answer

Ethanol ($$ \mathrm{C_2H_5OH} )$$

Question 6

Which of the following best explains why long-chain carboxylic acids are less soluble in water than short-chain carboxylic acids?

Accepted Answer

The long non-polar hydrocarbon chain reduces overall solubility in water.

Question 7

Which reaction represents the formation of an ester?

Accepted Answer

$$ \mathrm{Carboxylic\ acid + Alcohol \rightarrow Ester + Water} $$

Question 8

Which of the following is a correct example of a geometric (cis/trans) isomer?

Accepted Answer

2-butene ($$ \mathrm{CH_3CH=$$CHCH_3$$} ) $$can exist as both cis and trans isomers.

Question 9

Which of the following statements about the oxidation of alcohols is correct?

Accepted Answer

Primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes and then to carboxylic acids.

Question 10

Which of the following best describes the formation of a peptide bond?

Accepted Answer

A condensation reaction between the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another.

Question 11

Which of the following is a primary alcohol?

Accepted Answer

$$ \mathrm{CH_3CH_2OH}  ($$ethanol)

Question 12

Which of the following best explains why hydrocarbons are commonly used as fuels?

Accepted Answer

They have high energy content due to their non-polar C-H and C-C bonds.

Question 13

Which of the following is a correct representation of the hydration of an alkene?

Accepted Answer

$$ \mathrm{CH_2$=CH_2$ + H_2O \rightarrow CH_3CH_2OH} $$

Question 14

Which of the following statements about ethers is correct?

Accepted Answer

Ethers can be formed by the condensation of two alcohol molecules.
