Chloral hydrate is a gemdiol still highly stable because CCl3C(OH)2H is stablize by intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

Chloral hydrate is a gemdiol still it is highly stable.why?

The three electron withdrawing groups on the methyl group of chloral increase the polarized positive charge at the aldehyde carbon this favors an sp3 arrangement around that carbon CH(OH)2-CCl3 rather than the typical 0=CH-CCl3


Why nucleus is a highly stable entity?

Is the chlorine atom stable?

Yes, the chlorine atom is stable. It has a full outer electron shell with 8 electrons, making it a highly reactive and stable element.


How does hydrate differ from a anhydrous ionic compound?

A hydrate is an ionic compound that has water molecules attached to its crystal lattice, while an anhydrous ionic compound does not have water molecules attached. Hydrates can easily lose or gain water molecules depending on the conditions, while anhydrous compounds remain stable without water.


Why chloral undergoes cannizzaro reaction?

Chloral does not undergo Cannizzaro reaction because the anion formed is very stable do to the electron withdrawing effect of the three chloro group attached to the alpha carbon. As a result cleavage takes place and the products formed initially are CCl3- and HCOOH. Then by maintaining Bronsted Lowry concept an hydride ion transfer takes place and the final products are chloroform and HCOO- ion.


Stable molecules that contain carbon and are formed below sea level under low temperatures and high pressure are called?

You're probably thinking of methane hydrate-clathrate.


Is oxygen stable before bonding?

Oxygen is a stable gas in its elemental form, as O2. It is a diatomic molecule that is highly stable because of the strong covalent bonds between the two oxygen atoms.


Argon is a highly reactive gas true or false?

No, argon is not a highly reactive gas. It is stable.

Is glucose highly volatile?

No. A highly volatile substance is one that easily turns into vapor at or near room temperature. Glucose is quite stable as a solid.


Why lithium highly reactive?

if lithium loses one electron it attains the stable noble gas electron configuration of helium. hence it is highly reactive.


Is silicon dioxide flammable?

No, silicon dioxide is not flammable. It is a highly stable compound that does not support combustion.
