Markovnikov's rule states that, during electrophilic addition to alkenes/alkynes, the hydrogen atom in the electrophile will be added to the carbon atom in the alkene/alkyne that is bonded to he most hydr...

Chlorine is in Group 7 of the periodic table. Therefore a chlorine atom has 7 electrons in its outer shell. this atom needs one more electron to form an ion with a full outer shell. Hence the ion formed w...

Amino acids are amphoteric, meaning they have both acidic and basic properties. An animo acid has at least one primary amine group, NH2, and at least one carboxyl group, COOH. In an acidic environment whe...

Polymerisation is defined as the process of bringing individual molecules, called monomers, together to form chains of these molecules called polymers. When this process is done with molecules containing ...

Number of atoms
Ca x1 => 40x 1= 40
C x 1 => 12x1 = 12
O x 3= 16 x 3= 48CaCO3
RMM= 40 + 12 + 48= 100
