answer
What is a ketone
question
markownikoff’s rule
answer
The rule states that with the addition of a protic acid HX to an alkene, the acid hydrogen (H) becomes attached to the carbon with fewer alkyl substituents, and the halide (X) group becomes attached to the carbon with more alkyl substituents
question

In elimi nation reactions, the most substituted alkene
usually predominates.

question
Protic Solvent
answer
protic solvent; is one that has acidic protons, usually in the form
of; 0- H; or; N -H; groups
question
Aprotic Solvent
answer
aprotic; solvents; (solvents without 0- H; or
N - H; groups) enhance the nucleophilicity of anions. An anion is more reactive in an
aprotic solvent because it is not so strongly solvated
question
Polar; aprotic; solvents;
answer
have; strong; dipole moments; to; enhance; solubility
question
Sn1 Reaction
answer
The; SN 1; reaction goes much more readily; in polar solvents; that stabilize ions
question
hydride shift
answer
Carbocations; often; rearrange; to; form; more; stable; carbocations.; This; may; occur
when; a hydrogen; atom; moves with; its bonding pair; of; electron s.; Formally,; this is the
movement of a; hydride ion; (H:-),; although no actual; free hydride ion; is involved.
