explain why a s bond formed by overlap of an s orbital with an sp3 orbital of carbon is stronger than a sbond formed by overlap

of an s orbital with a p orbital of carbon

sp^{3} orbital have less electron density than p orbital. Therefore on overlap of s orbital with sp^{3} less repulsion take place than overlapping of sp3 orbital.

Electronegativity depends on s character.

In sp^{3}  there is hybridization between one s and 3 p orbital. Therefore,   sp^{3}have 25% of s character .

In p orbital , there is no s orbital present. Therefore s character is p orbital is 0% .

Higher the electronegativity means higher tendency to attract electron.

Thus, bond form by overlap of sp^{3} and s will be stronger than bond formed by overlap of s with p.

Answer: At the point when space experts take a gander at an article's range, they can decide its arrangement dependent on these frequencies. The most well-known technique stargazers use to decide the sythesis of stars, planets, and different articles is spectroscopy. This spread-out light is known as a range.

Org. chem. How is this "1-aminopropan-2-ol" and not "3-aminopropan-2-ol"
MatroZZZ [7]
You want to achieve the lowest number possible
Because <span>3-aminopropan-2-ol is bigger than </span><span>1-aminopropan-2-ol number wise, so you should name it as </span>1-aminopropan-2-ol
