States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
Draw the major product and state wheter the reaction is SN2, E2, SN1, or E1
![The image depicts a chemical reaction involving a cyclohexane ring with a bromine (Br) substituent and a tert-butyl group attached to one of the carbons. The reaction is shown with an arrow and water (H₂O) as the reactant or reagent.
Explanation of the Diagram:
- **Structure on the Left**: This is the reactant. It consists of a cyclohexane ring with a bromine atom (Br) attached to a carbon, which also has a tert-butyl group (a carbon bonded to three methyl groups) attached to it.
- **Arrow**: Indicates the direction of the reaction, suggesting that the reactant will be transformed into a product.
- **H₂O**: Water is the solvent or reactant, which may cause a nucleophilic substitution or elimination reaction, depending on the reaction conditions.
This type of image is typically used to depict organic chemical reactions where the reaction mechanism and the resulting products may be of interest.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8cc4da3d-b98a-4b59-8ad6-754b41d863df%2Ff2190859-9d52-4dbb-831c-1905a8b4d314%2Fup8enb_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
