Answer:
Explanation:
Chlorine has electronic configuration of 2 , 8 , 7
In n = 3 there are 7 electrons out of which 2 are in s , and 5 are in p . But out of 5 electrons in p , one electron jumps into d orbital . so the electronic configuration becomes as follows
= 7
These orbitals like sp³d hybridise to form 7 degenerate orbitals out of which 2 orbitals contain electrons in pairs and rest three are singly occupied by electrons.( unpaired electrons )
Answer:
See the explanation
Explanation:
In this case, in order to get an <u>elimination reaction</u> we need to have a <u>strong base</u>. In this case, the base is the phenoxide ion produced the phenol (see figure 1).
Due to the resonance, we will have a more stable anion therefore we will have a less strong base because the negative charge is moving around the molecule (see figure 2).
Finally, the phenoxide will attack the <u>primary carbon</u> attached to the Cl. The C-Cl bond would be broken and the C-O would be produced <u>at the same time</u> to get a substitution (see figure 1).
