Chapter 4.16A, Problem 4.29P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The given carbocations are to be arranged in the decreasing order of their stability and each carbocation is to be classified as primary, secondary or tertiary.

Concept introduction: The stability of carbocation depends upon the position of positive charge on carbon atom. Carbocations are electron deficient, as a result they are more stable on tertiary carbon atom as compared to secondary or primary carbon atom.

To determine: The order of given carbocations in decreasing order of their stability and classification of each as primary, secondary or tertiary.

16. Consider the probability distribution p(x) = ax", 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 for a positive integer n. A. Derive an expression for the constant a, to normalize p(x). B. Compute the average (x) as a function of n. C. Compute σ2 = (x²) - (x)², the variance of x, as a function of n.
451. Use the diffusion model from lecture that showed the likelihood of mixing occurring in a lattice model with eight lattice sites: Case Left Right A B C Permeable Barrier → and show that with 2V lattice sites on each side of the permeable barrier and a total of 2V white particles and 2V black particles, that perfect de-mixing (all one color on each side of the barrier) becomes increasingly unlikely as V increases.
