Answer
Do you think that the mole should be considered a base unit in the SI system?
The mole is not a base unit on a par with the six property base units; it cannot be used in significant physical–chemical comparisons until the subscript parameter p in mole-of-Ep has been given a certain “value”."
Explanation:
Atoms are divisible contrary to the early beliefs that the smallest "indivisible" matter is an atom. When an atom loses its identity it means that they are divisible. Atoms chemically react with other kinds of atoms thus changing their activity.
They certainly are not that important to our lives, but it’s good to know :)
Answer:
The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons
Explanation:
A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.
<span>Feb 19, 2014 - The units of k tell you that this is a second order reaction. So, to solve this, you need to use the integrated rate law for a 2nd order reaction: 1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]o 1/[A] = 0.540/Ms (835 s) + 1/0.00640 1/[A] = 607 [A] = 1.65X10^-3 M.</span><span>
