Worked Solution & Example Answer:Compounds X, Y and Z are, respectively A - VCE - SSCE Chemistry - Question 12 - 2007 - Paper 1
Step 1
Identify the correct compounds based on chemical nomenclature
Answer
To determine the correct answer, we need to analyze the compounds listed in each option and their respective names.
- Option A lists bromomethane (a simple brominated alkane), ethanol (an alcohol), and propyl ethanoate (an ester).
- Option B includes bromoethane (a brominated alkane), ethanol, and ethyl propanoate (another ester).
- Option C specifies bromoethene (an alkene), ethanoic acid (a carboxylic acid), and ethyl propanoate (an ester).
- Option D has bromoethene, ethene hydroxide (which is not a standard compound name), and propyl ethanoate.
Given this analysis, Option C presents the correct representation of compounds based on their naming conventions.
