Because the alkali metals are the group 1 metals, they have only 1 valence electron that they want to lose, and the halogens are the group 17 nonmetals, they want to gain 1 valence electron to become stable.
Answer:
The following three isomeric structure are given below.
Explanation:
Structure of the following three isomeric esters with chemical formula C₇H₁₂O₂
Ester #1: methyl 1-methylcyclobutanecarboxylate
Ester #2: (E)-methyl 3-methyl-3-pentenoate
Ester #3: isopropyl 2-methylpropenoate
because the gas particles are forced closer together.
Methane CH4
ethane C2H6
propane C3H8
Butane C4H10
pentane C5H12
