    I dont understand chemistry. Why does something form if its going to be unstable and have loads of lone pairs. Why do the lone electrons have to be in pairs. What even makes something stable or unstable.

    • @nexusdavies7502
      @nexusdavies7502 Рік тому +5

      Something is formed even if it's unstable to proceed the reaction, you can always just not form it and let it be but we have to see other possibilities, also sometimes formation of something unstable leads to something more stable than what we started with.
      Lone electrons are always in pairs because of distribution of electrons in orbitals, I don't clearly remember the name of the rule right now but look up electronic configuration and you'll find the distribution rules.
      Stability depends on a lot of factors, no of alpha carbons, attachment of electron withdrawing group or electron donating group, electronegativity of carbon etc, you'll have to look it up and understand every concept to be clear on this one

      Dude chemistry is like minecraft but its really infinite exploration its a natural phenomenon that we are trying to understand by analysing and giving facts and proof, no one can change it its just as "it is what it is"
      We see this sort of thing in every day life even from the movement you were born you were forced to learn numbers(1,2,3.....) If you were yo say it dont make any sense you will be correct but you still need it to perform mathematical operations , just take imaginary number like who the hell need it but......oof
      I thing you understand what i am trying to convey you here , bye

      It's like exactly asking why the matters in the universe work like this and why they are constituted like this. No one knows, humans just study the universe and these are observed facts about the matter in the universe, based on those facts, we then study further their behaviour and properties.

    • @thealchemist01
      @thealchemist01 7 місяців тому +3

      Regarding the stability question:
      You might have often heard that "less energy is more stable". The energy referred here is the Potential Energy.
      Take two positive charges. If we just put them close to each other and let go, what would happen?
      They would repel each other and move far apart, right?
      As they move far apart their potential energy decreases.
      Stability is kind of like Nature's favourite condition. We don't know why it's like that but nature prefers systems that have less energy. So it tends to push things towards a less energy state i.e, stable condition.
      Hope this helps. If you want you can check out Khan Academy video on the same topic "Why less energy means stability"

    What will be the rate determining step of it? The attack of the double bond from benzene to the nitronium ion in order to create the carbonation ion intermediate?

    • @aut199
      @aut199 2 роки тому +2

      The rate determining step (RDS) is the slowest step in the reaction. Here the RDS is formation of Sigma complex which happens after the generated electrophile attacks the aromatic ring

    Hey O chem tutor, if I were to join your pateron membership would you be open to suggestion of video topics in o chem? There are very few videos on organometallics reactions like, suzuki reactions , heck reactions, tsuji-trost reactions, stile reactions, songashira reactions, and olefin metathesis that you can find on youtube. It would be awesome if you could make videos on these. Thank you.

    • @tanushreenainawa3192
      @tanushreenainawa3192 3 роки тому +1

      Because that time also electrophile is trying to remove that particular hydrogen so it will become weak as compared to other carbon hydrogen bonds

    • @ilimselyardm9698
      @ilimselyardm9698 3 роки тому +1

      From another point of view
      That NO2 group has -I (it pulls electrons itselfs) so that Hydrogen bond is weakened it will be easier to remove that hydrogen compared to other carbons hydrogen

    I saw a different equation.
    HNO3+2H2SO4=NO2+ + H3O+ + 2HSO4-
    This makes more sense to me for some reason, could you check it pls, I don't think water can be one of the bases in this case.

    • @mahdiabdullahnoman3573
      @mahdiabdullahnoman3573 5 років тому +2

      , when the nitroniumion is attacking the ring with a positive charge, it gets nurtilized by giving the positive charge to the ring.
      Therefore it will from crabocation.
