Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the hybridization of each carbon in the right-hand ring is the same or not is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The atomic orbital is the wave function that is used to find the probability to find an electron around the nucleus of an atom. It is the space around the nucleus of an atom where the electrons are supposed to be found.
Hybridization is the process of intermixing of atomic orbital of slightly different energies to form hybrid orbitals that have similar energy. These orbital have lower energy and more stability than the atomic orbital.
Hybridization of the central atom can be determined from the number of electron groups around the central atom in the Lewis structure of the molecule. Single bond, double bond, triple bond and lone pair all are considered as a single-electron group.
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the hybridization of the oxygen atom in the center ring is the same as that present in the

Concept introduction:
The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.
All single bonds are sigma bonds. One double bond is made up of one sigma bond and one pi bond. One triple bond is made up of one sigma bond and two pi bonds.
(d)
Interpretation:
Whether all the lone pairs on oxygen atoms occupy the same type of hybrid orbitals or not is to be determined.

- Please correct answer and don't use hand ratingarrow_forwardThe SN 1 mechanism starts with the rate-determining step which is the dissociation of the alkyl halide into a carbocation and a halide ion. The next step is the rapid reaction of the carbocation intermediate with the nucleophile; this step completes the nucleophilic substitution stage. The step that follows the nucleophilic substitution is a fast acid-base reaction. The nucleophile now acts as a base to remove the proton from the oxonium ion from the previous step, to give the observed product. Draw a curved arrow mechanism for the reaction, adding steps as necessary. Be sure to include all nonzero formal charges.
