When determining Z and E isomers, which group takes higher priority?
here is the molecule i am trying to determine the isomers from
HOCH2CH2C=CC≡CH
..................|... |......
.............O=CH.C(CH3)3
= is a double bond
≡ is a triple bond
| is a single bond
I had to add the periods to get the single bonds to stay in place
The triple bonded C counts as a carbon bonded to three carbons, however the carbon that looks like this C(CH3)3, is also bonded to three carbons, so how do i determine which group has the higher priority?
Thanks!

2 AnswersChemistry10 years agosample distribution statistic question, need explaining?
Here is the question:
The level of nitrogen oxides in the exhaust of a particular car has mean 1.1 grams per
kilometre and SD 0.2 grams per kilometre. The shape of this distribution is slightly
non-normal.
A sample of 40 cars of this type is taken, and the nitrogen oxide level is measured for
each car. What is the probability that the sample mean nitrogen oxide level exceeds
1.3 grams per kilometre?
Why is the answer 0.0008, im really confused
