Identify the carbon atoms in the following molecules as primary, secondary, tertiary, or quaternary:

b)
Formaldehyde,, is known to all biologists because of its usefulness as a tissue preservative. When pure, formaldehyde trimerizes to give trioxane,, which, surprisingly enough, has no carbonyl groups. Only one monobromo derivative ()of trioxane is possible. Propose a structure for trioxane.
Predict the hybridization of the carbon atom in each of the following
Functional groups:
(c) Carboxylic acid
Draw a Newman projection along the C2-C3 bond of the following conformation of 2-butanol.
