Why are polyatomic called radicals

Chemistry
1 answer:
Digiron [165]2 years ago
3 0
That’s because when a charged chemical species composes of two or more atoms (covalently bonded), they act as a single unit. the term radicals refers to free radicals that are with an unpaired electron and because not all of its electrons are found in pairs

Which combination of reagents used in the indicated order with benzene will give m-nitropropylbenzene? a. 1) CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3,
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

1) HNO3/H2SO4, 2) CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3

Explanation:

Benzene is a stable aromatic compound hence it undergoes substitution rather than addition reaction.

When benzene undergoes substitution reaction, the substituent introduced into the ring determines the position of the incoming electrophile.

If I want to synthesize m-nitropropylbenzene, I will first carry out the nitration of benzene using HNO3/H2SO4 since the -nitro group is a meta director. This is now followed by Friedel Craft's alkykation using CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3.

What is an ion? Describe and give an example.
Goshia [24]
An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom. An example is Iron (III) , Iron (II) , lithium, and hydrogen.
