Abstract: Carbon-hydrogen insertion reactions involve the insertion of a carbene‚ a neutral carbon atom or molecule with two unpaired valence electrons‚ into an unactivated carbon-hydrogen bond. This reaction produces many commercially valuable compounds. The reaction itself involves the use of diazocarbonyl compounds which contain an N2 ligand on a carbon alpha to a carbonyl. The reaction is thermodynamically favourable as it involves the release of nitrogen gas. The carbon hydrogen bond is extremely

boiling point of CH 4 is much lower than that of HF. Which ONE of the following best explains this difference in boiling points? A HF molecules are more polar than CH 4 molecules. B CH 4 molecules are more polar than HF molecules. C There are hydrogen bonds between HF molecules. D There are dipole-dipole forces between CH 4 molecules. (2) The temperature (in kelvin) of a fixed mass of an enclosed gas is given as T. Which ONE of the following CORRECTLY represents the new temperature if both the

successfully synthesized from 10.0 mL cyclohexanol by unimolecular elimination (E1) through the dehydration of cyclohexanol and confirmed via a bromine test and the IR spectra. Introduction: Alkenes are hydrocarbons that have carbon–carbon double bonds and are one of the many functional groups in organic molecules. Alkenes are sp2 hybridized and are unsaturated because two of their hydrogen’s are missing from the saturated alkane formula (CnH2n+2). Typically alkenes are synthesized by elimination

reactions involve electron transfer as the driving force. Background Redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. So‚ when a metal and a nonmetal react‚ there is an ionic bond formed‚ which means one of them loses electrons while the other gains them. Since this reaction involves the exchange of electrons it is termed as a redox reaction. The oxidation states in a metal- nonmetal are simple to determine because they are

of gold easier. Although cyanide is helpful in terms of recovering gold it has been used throughout history as a deadly poison. Hydrogen cyanide has been used to disinfect buildings and sodium cyanide was used for over 50 years to control coyote numbers in the US. Cyanide is an ion with a single negative charge formed between carbon and nitrogen. There is a triple bond formed between the carbon and nitrogen.

Substances that neutralize acids are called alkalis. An acid is a substance that forms hydrogen ions (H+ ) when placed in water. It can also be described as a proton donor as it provides H+ ions. An example of an acid is hydrochloric acid (HCl)‚ Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) etc. An alkali is a soluble base and forms hydroxyl ions (OH-) when placed in water. It can be called a proton acceptor and will accept hydrogen ions to form H2O. An example of an alkali is Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH). Neutralization

Membrane Behavior Lab Abstract: Introduction: The permeability of a cell to solutes in an aqueous medium depends upon the physical and chemical make–up of the membrane. The maintenance of the living cell depends upon the continued presence and functioning of a selectively permeable membrane. If the nature of the membrane is changed or altered in any way‚ this may well affect its permeability and thus the properties of the cell of which it is a part. Irreversible changes in the permeability

acidic (pKa ~ 20) α-hydrogen of the ketone. This acidity is due to the stability of the resonance structures of the corresponding enolate ion that forms upon dissociation. When the hydroxide is able to subtract a hydrogen atom‚ a carbanion is formed. This carbanion is a very strong base and is able to attack the chlorine thus taking one of the chlorine atoms. The introduction of one chlorine atom catalyzes the attack of another hydroxide molecule on the remaining α-hydrogens of the ketone. The subsequent
