Result: ____________________
The table below shows the name and formula of three cyclotrienes (cyclic hydrocarbons with three double bonds).
| Name | Formula |
|---|---|
| Cycloheptatriene | C7H8\text{C}_7\text{H}_8C7H8 |
| Cyclooctatriene | C8H10\text{C}_8\text{H}_{10}C8H10 |
| Cyclononatriene | C9H12\text{C}_9\text{H}_{12}C9H12 |
Determine the general formula for cyclotrienes.
General formula = ____________________
The figure below shows the displayed structural formula of cyclohexene, C6H10\text{C}_6\text{H}_{10}C6H10, and an incomplete displayed structural formula of its addition product with chlorine.
Chlorine reacts with cyclohexene to produce a compound with the formula C6H10Cl2\text{C}_6\text{H}_{10}\text{Cl}_2C6H10Cl2.
Complete the figure to show the displayed structural formula of C6H10Cl2\text{C}_6\text{H}_{10}\text{Cl}_2C6H10Cl2.
Calculate the percentage by mass of chlorine in a molecule of C6H10Cl2\text{C}_6\text{H}_{10}\text{Cl}_2C6H10Cl2.
Give your answer to 3 significant figures.
Relative atomic masses (ArA_rAr): H=1\text{H} = 1H=1, C=12\text{C} = 12C=12, Cl=35.5\text{Cl} = 35.5Cl=35.5.
