If it is heated while it is being compressed or held inside a container as such, the pressure build up while in the container and the pressure can become so much that the container will burst.

Alcohols. When
Asymmetric Alkenes are treated with water in the presence of acid they follow
Markovnikoff rule, and the Hydrogen of incoming reagent goes to that carbon which contain more number of Hydrogen atoms. The reverse (
Anti-Markovnikoff) is done by carrying out Hydroboration reaction.In this case the Hydrogen atom of incoming reagent goes to that carbon which contains less number of Hydrogen atoms. In this reaction both -H and -OH adds in
syn fashion. The Hydroboration reaction of
Chloestrol is shown below,
Oxidation reaction
In ---> In³⁺ + 3e ---1)
reduction reaction
Cd²⁺ + 2e ---> Cd ---2)
when balancing the reactions, electrons have to be balanced. to balance the electrons multiple 1st reaction by 2 and 2nd reaction by 3
1) x 2
2) x 3
2In ---> 2In³⁺ + 6e
3Cd²⁺ + 6e ---> 3Cd
add the 2 equations to obtain the overall reaction
2In + 3Cd²⁺ ---> 2In³⁺ + 3Cd
Atoms do not always contain the same number of electrons and protons, although this state is common. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. In contrast, when an atom loses or gains an electron (or the rarer case of losing or gaining a proton, which requires a nuclear reaction), the total charges add up to something other than zero.
