Enantiotopic Protons appear to be equivalent when replaced by a Deuterium and give one signal on NMR. However, they can be made nonequivalent when in a chiral environment (aka a "chiral resolving reagent").

What is is an enantiotopic ligand?

A "ligand" is a word for a group of atoms stuck on a central point (atom) in a molecule (a chiral centre). An "enantiomer" is a molecule that exhibits stereo isomerism (mirror image symmetry) because of the presence of one or more chiral centres Thus a enantiotopic ligand is a ligand whose replacement or addition gives rise to enantiomers.


What is topocity in asymetric synthesis?

In stereochemistry, topicity is the stereochemical relationship between substituents and the structure to which they are attached. Depending on the relationship, such groups can be heterotopic, homotopic, enantiotopic, or diastereotopic.


What is a solution that contains an excess of protons?

A solution with an excess of protons is acidic. This means the concentration of protons (H+) is higher than the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the solution. Substances like hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid can contribute to this excess of protons.


What is meant by proton number?

a particle of matter with a positive electric charge


What is meant by reduction of benzene?

Benzene accepts protons and electrons in it's structure while some other element/molecule is oxidized and donates those protons and electrons to benzene. That is all reduction is; gaining of H + and electrons.


Is atomic mass number of protons or number of electrons if a neutral atom?

Neither, except for the anomalous hydrogen-1 isotope. The atomic mass number of an atom is the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the atom. If the questioner meant "atomic number" instead of "atomic mass number", the atomic number is fundamentally the number of protons, but if the atoms is neutral, the numbers of protons and electrons are the same.


What is meant by the word zirconium?

Zirconium is the name of a chemical element. Zirconium has atomic number 40, which by definition means that is has forty protons in its atomic nucleus.


What is the meant by atomic number?

The number equal to the total number of protons in the elementAtomic number:It is the following number in the Periodic Table, and by definition equal to the number of protons of the atom of that unique element.Example:Hydrogen, atom symbol H, number 1, protons: 1Carbon, atom symbol C, number 6, protons: 6Uranium, atom symbol U, number 92, protons: 92


What number of protons and neutrons must be contained in the nucleus to result in a neutral atom?

For a neutral atom, the number of protons (which determines the element) must be equal to the number of electrons. This means that the number of protons should be equal to the number of electrons for the atom to be neutral. Neutrons have no charge, so the number of neutrons does not affect the overall charge of the atom.


Is it true that the smashing of Adams is evidence of matter being Destroyed?

Assuming you meant atoms, no it is not. The atoms are broken into their constituent particles (IE. protons, neutrons, and electrons) but no matter is lost.


What is the number of protons in protons?

Non for it is imposable to have protons in a proton.
