For all the chemistry people out there. Explain why Benzene is more stable that 1,3,5-hexatriene? ...?

1 answer:

4 0

Benzene is more stable because it contains a ring and therefore an aromatic compound. On the other hand, 1,3,5-hexatriene, as a straight-chain alkene, is aliphatic. Aromatic compounds in general are more stable than their aliphatic counterparts because pi electrons are part of a conjugated system, meaning they are "shared" amongst all double-bonded atoms.

Write the full ground state electron configuration of f+.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:- $1s^22s^22p^4$ .

Explanation:- Atomic number for fluorine(F) is 9 and it's electron configuration is $1s^22s^22p^5$ . $F^+$ is formed when F loses one electron from it's valence shell.

$F\rightarrow F^++1e^-$

Second shell is the valence shell for fluorine and so it loses one electron from 2p to form $F^+$ and the electron configuration of the ion becomes $1s^22s^22p^4$ .

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Lichens can be used as air pollution indicators, especially of the concentration of sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere. Lichens are organisms that grow in exposed places such as rocks or tree bark. They need to be very efficient at absorbing water and nutrients to grow there.
