Answer:

No, CCl₄ is 4 covalent C-Cl single bonds with a Tetrahedral geometry.

Explanation:l

For resonance structures to exist the molecule must have alternating single-double bonds. H₂C = CH - CH₃ <=> H₃C - CH = CH₂ resents a simple compound with a resonance structure system. This means that the π-bond electrons are distributed across all carbons in the molecular backbone. I would recommend internet searching for Danial Weeks 'Pushing Electrons' for a comprehensive review of molecular resonance structures. It is a brief, but easy to follow treatment of simple to complex structures containing resonance systems.

Hope this helps. Doc :-)

In principle, the equilibrium in the dehydration of an alcohol could be shifted to the right be removal of water. Why is this ta

Trava [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember that if we want to remove water from the reaction vessel we have to heat the vessel. So, we can convert the liquid water into gas water and we can remove it from the vessel. In this case, the products of dehydration for both molecules are (E)-4-methylpent-2-ene and cyclohexene with boiling points of 59.2 ºC and 89 ºC respectively. The boiling point of water is 100 ºC, therefore if we heat the vessel the products and water would leave the system, and the products would be lost.

See figure 1
