Your answer is B: The outer electron of Adam B has moved to a higher energy state
Answer:
<u>Group 2 is the correct answer.</u>
Explanation:
<u>Chlorine has a charge -1. It means that X is +2 so that the formula is XCl2. </u>
<h3><u>Full Question:</u></h3>
The following compound has been found effective in treating pain and inflammation (J. Med. Chem. 2007, 4222). Which sequence correctly ranks each carbonyl group in order of increasing reactivity toward nucleophilic addition?
A) 1 < 2 < 3
B) 2 < 3 < 1
C) 3 < 1 < 2
D) 1 < 3 < 2
<h3><u>Answer: </u></h3>
The rate of nucleophilic attack of carbonyl compounds is 2<3 <1.
Option B
<h3><u>Explanation. </u></h3>
Nucleophilic attack is explained as the attack of an electron rich radical to a carbonyl compound like aldehyde or a ketone. A nucleophile has a high electron density, so it searches for a electropositive atom where it can donate a portion of its electron density and become stable.
A carbonyl compound is a
hybridized carbon atom with a double bonded oxygen atom in it. The oxygen atom pulls a huge portion of electron density from carbon being very electropositive.
In a ketone, there are two factors that make it less likely to undergo a nucleophilic attack than aldehyde. Firstly, the steric hindrance of two carbon groups being attached with the carbonyl carbon makes it harder for the nucleophile to approach. Secondly, the electron push by the carbon groups attached makes the carbonyl carbon a bit less electropositive than the aldehyde one. So aldehydes are more reactive towards a nucleophilic addition reaction.
There are two terms
a) accuracy : it relates to the exactness of an answer that how an answer is close to the actual answer or actual reading
So 104.6 is accurate
b) Precision : This is related to the closeness of different readings with each other
The first reading is 103.7 and the second one is 108.4 so the second reading is quite different from the first reading so it cannot be called as precised
Again 105.8 has good difference from the second reading hence again this is not precised
However the last reading 104.6 is quite near to 105.8 so 104.6 can be called as precise
