The F2 molecular orbital diagram shows 4e- are in the highest energy antibonding (destabilizing) molecular orbitals resulting in a bond order = 1.
Single bonds are easier to break and therefore more reactive. So the answer is yes.
Answer:
Most substituted alkene is produced as a major product
Explanation:
- Dehydration of 3-methyl-2-butanol proceeds through E1 mechanism to form alkenes.
- Most substituted alkene is produced as major product because of presence of highest number of hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms corresponding to the produced double bond (Saytzeff product).
- Here, a H-shift also occurs in one of the intermediate step during dehydration to produce more stable tertiary carbocation.
- Reaction mechanism has been shown below.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
i think with exothermic reactions heat is released
this is what i looked up
hope this helps i took chem last year and think this is what i learned
