Title
Reactions of alkanes
Caption
Alkanes are not polar and do not react with aqueous acids, bases, or oxidizing agents.
Keywords
alkane, reactivity, nonpolar
23.0.4UN
Title
Bonding in alkanes, alkenes and alkynes
Caption
The difference in reactivity between alkanes, alkenes and alkynes reflects differences in structure. Ethene and ethyne are more reactive than ethene because they contain delocalized pi bonds. These bonds are accessible to electrophilic agents.

Title
Some electrophilic substitutions reactions of benzene
Caption
Examples of electrophilic substitution reactions of benzene include (a) halogenation, (b) nitration, (c) sulfonation, and (d) alkylation.

Title
Reactivity of portions of ketone 2-octanone
Caption
Because ketone 2-octanone contains several different types of chemical groups, it has the possibilty of entering into several types of reactions.

Title
Molecular model of an SN2 reaction; 1-propanol to 1-iodopropane
Caption
The I- ion displaces OH2 as a water molecule in the second step of the conversion of 1-propanol to 1-iodopropane.

Title
Triglyceride structure
Caption
Glycerol is substituted with three fatty acids to form a triglyceride. In the case of glyceryl tristearate, all three of the substitutions are with stearic acid. The mix triglyceride has three diferent fatty acids.
Keywords

23.2.27UN
Title
Phospholipid structure
Caption
Phospholipids are built from substitution of glycerol with 2 fatty acid "tails" and one phosphate "head". The phosphate group can be further substituted to make various types of phospholipids. Here, an ethanolamine group is attached to the phosphate, yeilding phosphotidyl ethanolamine.

Caption
The essential components that comprise the spectrometer are (1) a source of radiation for the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum required; (2) a monochromatorÑa device (shown here as a prism of glass, quartz, rock salt, or other suitable material) that disperses the incoming radiation into a spectrum; (3) a slit that allows the desired narrow wavelength band to pass while other wavelengths are screened out; (4) a detector that responds to the power or intensity of the radiation striking it by producing an electric signal of a proportionate magnitude; (5) a recorder that plots the strength of the electric signal; peaks occur at wavelengths of the radiation absorbed, and the heights of the peaks indicate the quantity of radiation absorbed. l

(a) In the absence of a strong external field, nuclear spins are oriented at random. (b) In the presence of a strong applied field, there are only two possible orientations. Some nuclear spins are aligned in the direction of the field (red) and some are aligned in the opposite direction (blue). Those with spins in the direction of (parallel to) the applied field are in the lower energy state. l
