Chemistry 11th Edition - Solutions by Chapter

The decay rate of a radioactive material, generally expressed as the number of disintegrations per unit time. (Section 21.4)

Lacking a sugar

A radical reaction that achieves installation of a bromine atom at an allylic position.

Particles that are identical to helium-4 nuclei, consisting of two protons and two neutrons, symbol 4 2He or 4 2a. (Section 21.1)

The electrode at which reduction occurs. (18.2)

Properties that describe a substance’s composition and its reactivity; how the substance reacts or changes into other substances. (Section 1.3)

A model of reaction rates based on the idea that molecules must collide to react; it explains the factors influencing reaction rates in terms of the frequency of collisions, the number of collisions with energies exceeding the activation energy, and the probability that the collisions occur with suitable orientations. (Section 14.5)

A polymer,that is formed via a condensation reaction.

Compounds with the same molecular formula but a different connectivity of their atoms

Two mirror-image molecules of a chiral substance. The enantiomers are nonsuperimposable. (Section 23.4)

For cyclohexane, the steric interactions that occur between the flagpole hydrogen atoms in a boat conformation.

A graphic method for determining the relative energies of p MOs for planar, fully conjugated, monocyclic compounds.

The combination of atomic orbitals of different types

The force that exists between an ion and a neutral polar molecule that possesses a permanent dipole moment. (Section 11.2)

The energy required to separate completely the ions in an ionic solid. (Section 8.2)

Elements that lie along the diagonal line separating the metals from the nonmetals in the periodic table; the properties of metalloids are intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals. (Section 2.5)

Group 1A–7A elements react to achieve an outer shell of eight valence electrons.

A covalent bond formed by the overlap of parallel 2p orbitals.

The separation of enantiomers from a mixture containing both enantiomers.

In IR spectroscopy, atype of vibration that generally produces a signal in the diagnostic region of an IR spectrum.
