Q

Explain Resonance

A

electron delocalization: electrons are shared by several nuclei. dynamic sya unlike Lewis structure na yung shared electrons is solely sa dalawang atoms lang.

Q

Cahn Ingold Prelog Priority Rules

A
  1. Priority is high atomic number
  2. Compare the atoms one by one, at the first point of difference
  3. if there are multiple bonds, magiging single bond sya but replicates of the atom na yun na nakamultiple bond

Q

Electron Group Geometry

A

Bilangin yung bonds and lone pairs ng central atom. Double bond count as one and lone pair count as one
2 = linear
3 = trigonal planar
4 = tetrahedral
5 = trigonal bipyramidal
6 = octahedral
