Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Please find the image file of the chemical reaction in the attachment:

In a water medium, the CH3- type CH 3Li is a heavy nucleophile that attacks the carbonyl carbon atom to form the alkoxide ion, which will then be protonated to form alcohol.

The Pauli Exclusion Principle tells us that no two electrons in an atom can have the same four quantum numbers.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We can describe electrons using four sets of quantum numbers;

principal quantum number (n)

orbital quantum number (l)

magnetic quantum number (ml)

spin quantum number (ms)

Since no two electrons in an atom can have the same value for all four quantum numbers according to Pauli exclusion theory, for the orbitals given one possible value for each quantum number is shown below;

For 1s-

n = 1, l= 0, ml = 0, ms= 1/2

For 2s-

n= 2, l =0, ml=0, ms=1/2

For 1s and 2s orbitals, there is only one possible value for ml which is zero.

How are natural polymers and synthetic polymers similar?

Anna [14]

Answer: C) Both are made up of monomers that are linked by covalent bonds

Explanation: Polymers are large molecules which are formed by combination of small repeating units called as monomers.

Natural polymers are found in nature such as cellulose whereas synthetic polymers are synthesized in laboratories such as Nylon 6,6.
