The molecule with the highest boiling point is ethanol. This is because of the hydrogen bonding that occurs between molecules from the electronegative oxygen atom and electropositive hydrogen atom. The s...

Haemoglobin is a complex metal ion consisting of hexa-coordinated Fe²⁺ ions. With 6 coordinate bonds, haemoglobin forms an octahedral shape where 4 nitrogen ligands form a haem disc, a globin m...

SN1= only 1 species involved in the rate determining step = carbocation intermediate = racemic mixture = not optically active SN2= 2 species involved in the rate determining step =transition state = singl...

Balancing equations is making sure that all atoms, ions and charges have the same count on both sides of the equation. We start with checking metals, hydrogen and lastly oxygen and charges. In order to ba...

For a chemical reaction to occur the reactant particles must collide with each other with the correct orientation and they must also have a minimum energy necessary for the molecules to successfully react...
