Can you please explain this problems to me? I'm very confused about it. Please provide a detailed, step-by-step explanation for me! (ME EX1) Prblm 30
This organic molecule is dissolved in a basic aqueous solution: O ? olo RET A short time later sensitive infrared spectroscopy reveals the presence of a new C-OH stretch absorption. That is, there Ar must now be a new molecule present with at least one C - OH bond. In the drawing area below, show the detailed mechanism that could convert the molecule above into the new molecule. $ Add/Remove step
So the thing is im trying to memorize VESPR Shapes in order to be able to solve problems like so, and I need help with making circles like the second image that's in blue or using an x and y axis plane in order to memorize these and be able to solve those type of problems. Especially like the ones given in the top / first image. (180 , 120 , 109.5) Can you help me with this.
