speed of light
speed of light (c = 3 × 108 m/s)
mechanical energy
Mechanical energy is made up of kinetic and potential energy, as it is associated with the motion and position of an object.
Human hearing threshold frequency
20 Hz to 20 kHz
What is conjugation?
When there are 3+ pi bonds together
What is aromaticity? What is anti aromaticity
MAJOR KEY: need to count lone pairs in with pi electrons
When there are 4n+2 pi electrons- this increases stability
Anti aromaticity is when there are 4n- this is very unstable
What do alkyl groups in a compound do to acid and base strength
Increase base strength, decrease acid strength. Why? Add electron density that makes a compound more able to accept H and less willing to donate H
Formula for alkane, alkene, alkyne
alkane: CnH2n+2
alkene: CnH2n
alkyne: CnH2n-2
Capacitors vs resistors in parallel
capacitors: increase in parallel, decrease in series
Mnemonic: PCs are good
resistors: decrease in parallel, increase in series
Mnemonic: RP (role playing) is bad
what is a pyrrole?
A Nitrogen based ring
