The changes in reactivity are due to the electron donating/withdrawing properties of the substituted groups. For example the OH group in Phenol is electron donating. This means the electron density of the...

1^st consider the bonding in methane, CH4. The carbon atom forms 4 single covalent bonds to hydrogen atoms. However, when we consider the electronic configuration of Carbon (electrons-in-box not...

A change in the concentration of reactants or products per unit time

Ionic bonding occurs between positive and negatively charged ions. A simple example is Sodium Chloride. Sodium has 1 outer shell electron which it wants to lose in order to create a stable electronic conf...
