Question

The secondary (I) quantum number is associated with an orbital s size. The carbon atom in formaldehyde (H2CO) is sp3 hybridized. Orbital hybridization is a key feature of valence bond (VO) theory. A constitutional isomer of C5H12 is symmetric with all equivalent hydrogens. The molecular formula for a cyclic Cs compound is CaHis. The alkyl group tert-butyl has the collapsed formula -CH(CH3)CH2CH3. Aluminum chloride is a good example of a Lewis acid. Oxidation of an organic compound causes increased electron density in its carbons. Reduction of an organic compound causes increased electron density in its carbons
