1. Structural isomers are compounds which have the the same molecular formula but the atoms are arranged in a different order. This can be due to a change in the carbon skeleton, the type of functi...

Step 1: Work out the moles of NaOH and HCl added into the solution 10cm^3 of 1M NaOH would mean that there is 10cm^3/1000cm^3 x 1M present, i.e. 0.01 moles 15cm^3 of 0.5M HCl would mean that there ...

The atomic radius of an atom is the distance from the atom's nucleus to its outermost electron. Moving across Period 3, the number of protons in the nucleus increases - for example sodium has 11 protons, ...

London dispersion forces. These arise because: 1. Electrons within the halogen molecule are constantly moving and at any one instant there is an uneven distribution of electrons within the molecule. 2. Th...
