The proton which is easily abstracted in 1-Benzyl-3-propylbenzene is the proton which is present on carbon atom in between two phenyl rings, or the central carbon which is shared by two benzene rings.

This easy abstraction of proton is due to its high acidity. Remember those species are always more acidic whose conjugate base is stable. Like the acidity of carboxylic acid is due to stability of the acetate ion.

In our case the stability of conjugate base arises due to stability of negative ion due to resonance. As shown below, the negative charge can delocalize on both rings.

I have shown the resonance of negative ion on both Phenyl rings with Blue and Pink colors.<span />

Answer:

First

divide each element by its Molecular Mass to get their respective moles

Then Divide through by the lowest of the moles

You'll have the ratio of Carbon Hydrogen and Oxygen to be

C2H3O

Given Molecular Mass=184.27

C2H3On=184.27

n(12x2 + 1x3 + 16) =184.27

Evaluating this... You'll have n=4.3

Pls check if you assigned the correct value to each element

Answer:

I cant answer B, but I can answer A, and I don't think it is a scientifically reasonable plan.

Explanation:

The bag of sand weighs less than the gold statue, and yes the bag of sand seems like it would keep the trap from activating, but you would scientifically have to put something that was the same weight as the gold statue on the pedestal that the statue is on.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

A. The conditions are:

I. Reactant particles must collide with the right orientation.

II. There must be effective collisions.

III. The reactant particles must possess enough energy to break old bonds so that new bonds can be formed.

B. The activated complex occurs where the maximum energy of the reaction is attained along the reaction pathway, that is, at the peak of the activation energy.
