A coordination number can be determined by the usage of an atom towards a molecule from seeing how many numbers of atoms would have to be combined together in an atom.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
This conversion must go through a sequence of steps as i have shown in the image attached to this answer.
The acetone is converted to propan-2-ol using LiAlH4, THF and acid. The propan-2-ol may be converted to propene by E2 elimination. Addition of HBr yields 2-bromo propane.
The Wurtz reaction converts 2-bromo propane to 2,3- dimethyl butane. This can be brominated in the presence of light to yield 3-bromo-2,3-dimethyl butane. Elimination of HBr using a base leads to the formation of the required product as shown.
Answer:
Explanation:
All three lighter boron trihalides, BX3 (X = F, Cl, Br), form stable adducts with common Lewis bases. Their relative Lewis acidities can be evaluated in terms of the relative exothermicities of the adduct-forming reaction. Such measurements have revealed the following sequence for the Lewis acidity: BF3 < BCl3 < BBr3 (in other words, BBr3 is the strongest Lewis acid).
This trend is commonly attributed to the degree of π-bonding in the planar boron trihalide that would be lost upon pyramidalization (the conversion of the trigonal planar geometry to a tetrahedral one) of the BX3 molecule, which follows this trend: BF3 > BCl3 > BBr3 (that is, BBr3 is the most easily pyramidalized). The criteria for evaluating the relative strength of π-bonding are not clear, however. One suggestion is that the F atom is small compared to the larger Cl and Br atoms, and the lone pair electron in the 2pzorbital of F is readily and easily donated, and overlaps with the empty 2pz orbital of boron. As a result, the [latex]\pi[/latex] donation of F is greater than that of Cl or Br. In an alternative explanation, the low Lewis acidity for BF3 is attributed to the relative weakness of the bond in the adducts F3B-L.
Answer:
Resistance
Explanation:
Resistance is the measure of the opposition of current in a circuit.
<h2>Giant impact and metalcore.</h2>
Explanation :
- Mercury has a large core of liquid metal.
- The metal core is of iron metal.
- The core is surrounded by a mantle which is made up of silica and a solid outer crust.
- In the case of Mercury, the total core percentage is 42% of the planet while the Earth's core is only 17% of the planet.
- Mercury has lost part of its mantle and crust that left the mercury with a large metal core.
