Friedel-Crafts alkylation requires dry conditions because AlCl3 may combine with water thereby hindering the reaction.

Friedel-Crafts involves the introduction of an alkyl group into a benzene ring. This occurs by electrophilic substitution of a proton on the aromatic ring with an alkyl group.

The set up must be free from water because water could inactivate the Lewis acid (AlCl3) due to combination of the Lewis acid with water thereby hindering the reaction.

Which types of orbitals are found in the principal energy level n = 2?
AfilCa [17]
Remember this:

1) n is principal quantum number and represents the energy level.

2) l is the second quantum number and represent the type of orbital.

3) l can take values from 0 to n - 1

4) each number of l is associated with a type of orbital.  This table shows the equivalence:
 
l number       type of orbital

0                    s

1                    p

2                    d

3                     f

With that, you can tell that n = 2 permits l = 0 and 1, which is orbitals s and p.

Therefore, the answer is the option D) s, p.
