Question 1

The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2. What is the value of n in 3-ethyl-2-methylpentane ? Is this molecule chiral?
◦ n = 8; yes, it is chiral
◦ n = 7; no, it is not chiral
◦ n = 8; no, it is not chiral
◦ n = 5; yes, it is chiral
◦ n = 7; yes, it is chiral

Question 2

The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2. What is the value of n in 2,6-dimethylnonane? How many chiral centres does this molecule have?
◦ n = 11; there are three chiral centres
◦ n = 11; there is one chiral centre
◦ n = 9; there are two chiral centres
◦ n = 9; there is one chiral centre
◦ n = 11; there are two chiral centres
