Question

Hey, So I get the basic idea of this and can do most of the problems, but sometimes I come unstuck. So just looking for some clarification.

The [H] inside the square, may sound like a dumb question but do they represent hydrogens?

What does the AR stand for?

I am also confused about the line notation, for example, the double bonded O at about 2.8 does this molecule have only 2 carbons on it? or are they carbons on the end of lines to? or are they parts to connect things to?

Am I also correct in assuming that the R is any r chain?

Please be as detailed as possible. THANKS in advance!

Explanation / Answer

Ar stands for aromatic ring

R is an any alkane chain

=O at 2.8 doesnt mean only 2 carbon atoms only

left side it may be more C atoms. but peak represents =O adjecent C attached hydrogens only.
