Mr of NiSO4 is 154.8 g/mol Mr of H2O is 18

Mass of NiSO4 in sample is 2.287 g Mass of H2O in sample is 4.414-2.287 = 2.127g

divide mass of each of NiSO4 and H2O by Mr to obtain the ratio in ...

Acylation is a broad term for any reaction where an acyl group is added to a compound.

An acyl group is comprised of a ketone group (C=O) with an alkyl group attached to the carbon. RCO(-) is the g...

A covalant bond is a very strong bond between two atoms. These atoms share a pair of electrons and form molecules.

An ionic bond occurs between two ions (charged atoms). Ions form when an atom lose...

Infrared radiation has a longer wavelength than visible light, and is also called thermal radiation. The chemical bonds in molecules absorb infrared radiation at characteristic frequencies, which means it...

The first thing we need to do in this type of organic chemical reaction, is identify our electrophiles and nucleophiles. We know that due to the electronegativity of the oxygen atom in carbonyl compounds ...
