Electrons can gain the energy it needs by absorbing light. If the electron jumps from the second energy level down to the first energy level, it must give off some energy by emitting light. The atom absorbs or emits light in discrete packets called photons, and each photon has a definite energy.
Answer:
a compound,typically a crystalline one,in which water molecules are chemically bound to another compound or an element
Answer:
The four resonance structures of the phenoxide ion are shown in the image attached
The conjugate base of cyclohexanol has only one resonance contributor, while
the conjugate base of phenol has four resonance contributors.
Explanation:
In organic chemistry, it is known that structures are more stable if they possess more resonance contributors. The greater the number of contributing canonical structures, the more stable the organic specie. Since the phenoxide ion has four contributing canonical structures, it is quite much more stable than cyclohexanol having only one contributing structure to its conjugate base. Hence the PKa(acid dissociation constant) of phenol is lesser than that of cyclohexanol. The conjugate base of phenol is stabilized by resonance.
