Answer:
Electrons on the outermost shell of an atom. They are responsible for the chemical properties of an atom.
Answer:
Explanation:
The direct reaction of a carboxylic acid with an amine would be expected to be difficult because the basic amine would deprotonate the carboxylic acid to form a highly unreactive carboxylate. However when the ammonium carboxylate salt is heated to a temperature above 100 C water is driven off and an amide is formed.
Explanation:
The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles - a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.
Molecule, a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.
While Atoms are single neutral particles,
Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.
