Answer:

I believe it is useful as it shows how electrons are distributed in the shells (energy levels) of an iron atom. An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. It contains the nucleus and the shells (energy levels). the nucleus contains protons and neutrons while the shells contain electrons.

What would indicate that a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire?

Lina20 [59]

Any change in which the composition of material does not change that is it retains its identity but changes its state or form is known as a physical change.

The properties of metal to draw them into wires is known as ductility. When a copper is drawn into wire the only change that occurs is change in its shape and size no change will take place into its composition that is the wires are still possessing the properties of copper metal. Thus, a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire.

Answer and Explanation:

Epoxide is a three membered ring made up of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Epoxides are cyclic ethers. Due to its ring size, it is highly strained and very reactive. Epoxide ring opening takes place with respect to addition of acid and base.

Ring opening of epoxide with acid:

In the presence of base, the nucleophile attacks the epoxide ring at more substituted site and inverse stereochemistry takes place.(check file 2 attached)

Ring opening of epoxide with base:

The backside attack of nucleophile takes place in less substituted site and then it undergoes protonation to form a product.
