In benzene, why does the C=C & C-C bond has the same length?
There is a resonance of electrons so all the C-C bonds in benzene are equivalent.
1 of 12
When can resonance can occur?
When there is alternating adjacent C=C & C-C bond.
2 of 12
What is the name of catalyst for elecrophilic substitution for benzene?
Halogen carrier.
3 of 12
What is the name of the positive ion used in the nitration of benzene?
Nitronium ion.
4 of 12
What is the name for alkylation of benzene?
Friedel-crafts reaction.
5 of 12
Why phenol has higher m.p. than benzene?
It can from higrogen bond with each other due to the presence of O-H bond.
6 of 12
What is the name of phenol's salt?
Phenoxide.
7 of 12
What is a reagent?
It is something that you can take out of a bottle.
8 of 12
How to find the overall Kp of a multi-step reaction.
Multiply all the Kp values of the individual reactions.
9 of 12
Define ligand.
It is a molecule or negative ion which has a lone pair of electrons, which can use its lone pair to form co-orginate bond to a metal.
10 of 12
Define transitional metal.
An element/atom which forms at least one stable ion containing a partially filled (1-9) d-orbital.
11 of 12
In tetrahedral complex, which orbital(s) has higher energy level?
dxy & dyz & dxz
