Answer:

See attached picture.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, Lewis' structures are basic illustrations of the outer valence shell electrons of a particular molecule. It is employed to understand how the electrons are assembled around the atom. Electrons are represented as "dots" and bonds as lines connecting the two atoms through the aforesaid dots.

In such a way, since carbon has four valance electrons it needs four bonds to accomplish the octet and hydrogen one, the Lewis' dot structure for benzene is shown on the attached picture.

Best regards.

Explain why the amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid does not participate in the reaction

lubasha [3.4K]

This is because amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid is an aniline and is less electrophilic than an alkyl amine.

<h3>What is an Aniline?</h3>

This is an aromatic amine which consists of a phenyl group attached to an amino group.

The amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid being an aniline makes it less electrophilic which is why an alkyl amine participates in the reaction instead.

One mole of acetyl chloride was mixed with one mole of dimethylamine. After the reaction is complete, what species can be found

fredd [130]

Answer:

N,N-dimethylacetamide is formed.

Explanation:

It is an example of a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction. Here dimethylamine acts as a nucleophile.
In the first step, dimethyl amine gives nucleophilic addition reaction at carbonyl center of acetyl chloride.
In the second step, removal of Cl atoms occurs.
In the third step, deprotonation takes place from amino group to produce N,N-dimethylacetamide.
Full reaction mechanism has been shown below.

What are the three main technical support options for Microsoft users? Find It Myself, Ask the Community, Get Live Help Communit

Katen [24]

Answer:

Find It Myself, Ask the Community, Get Live Help

Explanation:

The three main options for Microsoft users are Find It Myself, Ask the Community, Get Live Help. The first of which is finding it yourself through the search menu or help guidelines provided by Microsoft in all of their operating systems. Secondly, would be asking the community through search engines such as Google or through Microsoft help forums. Lastly, would be getting live help since Microsoft opertaing systems have a remote desktop feature that allows you to connect to another IT professional from a distance, or you can simply contact an IT professional to visit you in person for technical assistance.

Now, examine the structures of benzhydrol and fluorene. Both compounds contain the same number of carbons but have very differen

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The OH group

Explanation:

Benzhydrol contains OH hydroxyl group in its molecule while fluorene does not. At first glance, one would think that OH, which contributes to hydrogen bonding would causes melting point of benzhydrol to be higher than fluorene. <em>However, </em>the structure of benzhydrol, which is 2 benzene rings connected to center hydroxyl carbon (PhCOHPh), allows for each benzene rings in benzhydrol to rotate until both rings are perpendicular to minimize repulsive force. This prevents the molecule from stacking on each other due to its non flat shape, and thus, lowering its melting point in contrast to flat fluorene molecule.
