Which type of chemistry does not focus on the compounds which contain c-h bonds?

Inorganic chemistry does not focus on compounds that contain C-H bonds. Instead, it primarily deals with compounds that do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds, such as metallic compounds, minerals, and coordination complexes.


What is the key difference between the Zaitsev and Hofmann rule in organic chemistry?

The key difference between the Zaitsev and Hofmann rule in organic chemistry is that the Zaitsev rule states that the major product of a reaction is the more substituted alkene, while the Hofmann rule states that the major product is the less substituted alkene.

What does the n stand for in the 4n plus 2 rule of Chemistry?

n is an integer that can be 0,1,2,3,... and so on. All this means is that for an aromatic ring to be aromatic it has to have pi bonds that are 2,6,10,14,18,... and so on. On the other hand a antiaromatic ring will have the formula 4n so that pi bonds are 4,8,12,16,20,... and so on.


Can you explain the difference between the Hofmann rule and the Zaitsev rule in organic chemistry?

The Hofmann rule states that in a reaction where a hydrogen halide is removed from an alkyl halide to form an alkene, the major product will be the one with the least substituted double bond. The Zaitsev rule, on the other hand, states that the major product will be the one with the most substituted double bond.
