Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Skeletal structure for the cis and trans isomers for 3-heptene should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Cis-trans isomers fall under geometric isomerism.
Cis isomers- two different groups are on the same side of the double bond.
Trans isomers- two different groups are on opposite sides of the double bond.
The skeletal structure is the arrangement of atoms and bonds in the molecule.
(b)
Interpretation:
Skeletal structure for the cis and trans isomers for 4,4-dimethyl-2-hexene should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Alkenes are hydrocarbon molecules that consist of a carbon-carbon double bond which has the general formula of
Cis-trans isomers fall under geometric isomerism.
Cis isomers- two different groups are on the same side of the double bond.
Trans isomers- two different groups are on opposite sides of the double bond.
The skeletal structure is the arrangement of atoms and bonds in the molecule.

- Hi can you please help me solve this problem? thank youarrow_forwardAn electrode process takes place at a metal-solution interface. Indicate the current condition that must be met for Faradaic rectification to occur.arrow_forwardAt a metal-solution interface, an electron is exchanged, and the symmetry factor beta < 0.5 is found in the Butler-Volmer equation. What does this indicate?arrow_forward
- Please do these questions within the SCH4U course please with full steps since I am still unsure how to format my answers! Thank you so much.arrow_forwardWhen two solutions, one of 0.1 M KCl (I) and the other of 0.1 M MCl (II), are brought into contact by a membrane. The cation M cannot cross the membrane. At equilibrium, x moles of K+ will have passed from solution (I) to (II). To maintain the neutrality of the two solutions, x moles of Cl- will also have to pass from I to II. Explain this equality: (0.1 - x)/x = (0.1 + x)/(0.1 - x)arrow_forwardCalculate the variation in the potential of the Pt/MnO4-, Mn2+ pair with pH, indicating the value of the standard potential.
