(a)
Interpretation: It is to be shown that the given structure conforms to the formula of
Concept introduction: The substance that gains electron (oxidation number increases) is known as oxidizing agent, whereas the substance that loses electron (oxidation number decreases) is known as reducing agent.
Loss of Oxygen atom is known as reduction, whereas gain of Oxygen is known as oxidation.

- Please explain how to calculate the pH.arrow_forwardI'm having trouble with converting lewis diagrams into VSEPR diagrams. I currently have this example of C2BrCl3 which I want to turn into a lewis structure, but I'm not sure what steps I need to do in order to do so. I have the table written down, however, there's two central atoms so what would I do? There seems to be 4 electron domains on the carbon atom and no lone pairs so it would seem like this shape would be tetrahedral. Here's what I have now. Thanks!arrow_forwardWe discussed the solid phase resin using in peptide synthesis. Provide a mechanism, for its formation. DRAW THE MECHANISM.arrow_forward
