A polar molecule<span> has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges (i.e. having partial positive and partial negative charges) from </span>polar<span> bonds arranged asymmetrically. Water (H</span>2<span>O) is an example of a </span>polar molecule<span> since it has a slight positive charge on one side and a slight negative charge on the other.</span>
Answer:
B.) Trigonal planar
Explanation:
This molecule has 3 bonds and no lone pairs. The angles are all 120° and the bonds are within the same plane. These molecules have the molecular shape of trigonal planar.
Answer:
Experiments to determine mechanisms involve looking at indirect evidence to help support or disprove a proposed mechanism.
Most intermediates are not typically isolated to determine reaction mechanisms.
Carbocations are very reactive and are typically not isolated for analysis.
Scientists can prove that a specific mechanism exists.
Evidence of intermediates sometimes can be seen using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Explanation:
The study of reaction mechanism and chemical kinetics often form the main thrust of study in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.
We often want to know the actual processes involved in the conversion of one specie to another. Unfortunately, this information may have to be obtained indirectly by certain chemical reactions or by the use of new instrumental methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Many organic reactions have carbocation intermediates. These carbocations are relatively short-lived and are transient intermediates which are rarely isolated unless they are isolated in a molecular cage using a macromolecule or in superacids.
By intensive study, scientists can proof or disprove the authenticity of any proposed mechanism.
We must know that a transition state has partial bonds. It is often an extremely short-lived specie which cannot be isolated.
