Number of possible compounds?
« on: November 17, 2013, 10:21:23 PM »
Hi, can you help me with this problem? also, will there be a different number of compound if there was no excess O3 just reguler amount of O3?

I think they are only implying that enough ozone is present to react. If it said two or three equivalents, that would be a hint as to what you should expect. Excess is a strategy requiring the person answering the question to make the decision.

In your shown compound, how many places (functional groups) can ozone react with?

Start there.

If you're not part of the solution, then you're part of the precipitate
