Answer:

the tendency of an element to gain electrons

Explanation:

Electrode potential is considered to be the tendency of a metal to lose or gain electrons when dipped in its own ionic solution.

For example Zn dipped in ZnSO₄.

Now if a metal or element is losing electrons then it is considered as oxidation potential and it an element is gaining electrons then it is considered as reduction potential.

Standard word is related with standard condition of temperature, pressure and concentration.

standard temperature is 298 K

standard pressure is 1 bar

standard concentration is 1M.

Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(c) 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane

dolphi86 [110]

The given compound 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has chiral center.

Here , the chiral carbon is attached to the 4 distinct groups such as : methyl , ethyl , bromine , bromomethane .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .
