Question
Chapter 4.1, Problem 6P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The three compounds with a double bond showing no cis-trans isomer for the given molecular formula has to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Cis-trans terminology is used for two non-similar groups attached
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in same side, then it is cis alkenes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in opposite manner, then it is trans alkenes.

They find one will react quickly, one slowly, and one will not react at all. Which is which, and why?
HINT: What is the reaction they're trying to do? Does that mechanism tell you anything about why something would be favored?
NH3 decomposes through an equilibrium reaction between NH3, H2, and N2. Only one of the options is correct:(A). The mechanism of the NH3 decomposition reaction must necessarily involve the collision of two NH3 molecules to induce a rearrangement of the atoms in this molecule.(B). The molecular weight of the NH3 decomposition reaction is 2 since two NH3 molecules must collide.(C). The rate of the NH3 decomposition reaction must be greater than that of NH3 synthesis, since the former requires two molecules to collide and the latter, four.(D). The NH3 decomposition reaction cannot occur in a single step.
