Answer:

A one-step mechanism involving a transition state that has a carbon partially bonded to both chlorine and oxygen

Explanation:

The compound CH3Cl is methyl chloride. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction that proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. The SN2 mechanism is a concerted reaction mechanism. This means that the departure of the leaving group is assisted by the incoming nucleophile. The both species are partially bonded to opposite sides of the carbon atom in the transition state.

Recall that an SN2 reaction is driven by the attraction between the negative charge of the nucleophile (OH^-) and the positive charge of the electrophile (the partial positive charge on the carbon atom bearing the chlorine leaving group).

As you move from bottom on the periodic table to the top shielding
masha68 [24]

Answer:

AS we move from bottom to top on periodic table shielding decreased.

Explanation:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As we move from bottom to top the energy level decreased because of decreased in electron thus shielding decreased and atomic size also decreased.

Describe how/why earth is layer the way it is
Yuri [45]

Denser objects and substances experience a greater gravitational force acting upon their mass. This is why materials of different densities form layers. ... It is less dense than the Earth's crust, which is a solid. This is why the Earth's surface and atmosphere form distinct layers.

How are Epigenetic tags different from genes?​
meriva
Quick look: In its modern sense, epigenetics is the term used to describe inheritance by mechanisms other than through the DNA sequence of genes. It can apply to characteristics passed from a cell to its daughter cells in cell division and to traits of a whole organism
