What is a valence electron ?

Chemistry
2 answers:
timofeeve [1]3 years ago
6 0

a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

Scientific law

Explanation:

A scientific law is a term that refers to a fact that naturally occurs in the universe.

Scientific laws are natural laws and they hold true.

  • Scientific law is a well tested idea that holds through for a range of natural events.
  • Scientific theories are explanations of phenomenons drawn from series of tests.

Design a synthesis of 2-bromo-1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene from benzene or any mono-substituted benzene. Part 1 out of 6 choose the b
Oxana [17]

2-bromo-1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene  is being synthesized in following sequence:

Step 1: Chlorination of Benzene:

                                                     This is Halogenation reaction of benzene. In this step benzene is reacted with Chlorine gas in the presence of lewis acid (i.e. FeCl₃). This results in the formation of Chlorobenzene as shown in red step below.

Step 2: Nitration of Chlorobenzene:

                                                          The chlorine atom on benzene has a ortho para directing effect. Therefore, the nitration of chlorobenzene will yield para nitro chlorobenzene as shown in blue step below.

Step 3: Bromination of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene:

                                                                               In this step bromination is done by reacting bromine in the presence of lewis acid. The chlorine being ortho para directing in nature and nitro group being meta directing in nature will direct the incoming Br⁺ (electrophile) to the desired location. Hence, 2-bromo-1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene is synthesized in good yield.

12. Compare and contrast hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions.
mrs_skeptik [129]

Explanation:

Van der Waals interactions occur between any two or more molecules. They are caused by a fluctuation in electron density, as electrons are not actually fixed in a shell, but actually freely moving as a 'cloud of electron density'. This means that sometimes one end of a molecule can become more partially negatively charged as all electrons move to that side, and conversely it can attract the more partially positive end of a molecule (that has little electrons).

Hydrogen bonds only occur between molecules that contain oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine bonded to a hydrogen atom.

Hydrogen bonding is also the strongest intermolecular force there is, but not strong in comparison to ionic and covalent bonds. Therefore, hydrogen bonds are much stronger than Van der Waals forces. Hydrogen bonds only form if oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine are bonded to a hydrogen atom, as they have the greatest electronegativity differences (look at an electronegativity table), and when the overall molecule is polar (have unequal charges). This allows the molecule to be able to attract another molecule from one of the bonded atoms to a hydrogen atom.
