For elements in group 2, their valence electrons consist of "ns²" where n is the principle quantum number/shell number. However, for elements in group 3, their valence electrons consi...

(unable to draw diagram and upload in this format) ethyl ethanoate has the semi structural formula of CH3COOCH2CH3. According to electron repulsion theory the bond angle around the second carbon atom woul...

1. The chain length needs to be extended by 1, so we can use NaCN dissolved in ethanol to extend the carbon chain by 1. This will produce butanenitrile. Mechanism here.2) Now that the ...

(Drawing cannot be put into this area). The shape of this molecule is influenced by the bonding regions and lone pair regions (lone pairs repel more than bonded pairs). The molecule has 2 lone pairs and 3...

Butan-1-ol will have the highest boiling point of all 3 as it has Hydrogen bonds acting between molecules. This occurs due to the presence of the electronegative O atom. 2-methylpropane is a branched vers...
