- Which of the bonds A, B or C in Figure 7 is the easiest to break? * A B C These bonds are equally strong.arrow_forwardConsidering the indicated carbon–halogen bonds, which bond is predicted to have the higher bond dissociation energy? Which bond is stronger?arrow_forwardConsider a molecule of methanimine (CH3N) compared to a molecule of methylamine (CH5N). The C-N bond in methanimine is than the C-N bond in methylamine. A. longer and stronger B. longer and weaker C. shorter and stronger D. shorter and weaker E. the same strength and length asarrow_forward
- Which bond in attached pair has the higher bond dissociation energy?arrow_forwardYou will not find “hydroxide” in the stockroom, but you will find sodium hydroxide (NaOH) andpotassium hydroxide (KOH). Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is expensive and used in spacecraft airfilters since hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide, and lithium is lighter than sodium or potassium.Cesium and francium hydroxides are very expensive and little used. Is this information consistentwith your answer to the previous question?arrow_forwardUse the principles of resonance theory to explain why carbocation A ismore stable than carbocation B.arrow_forward
