How many elements of unsaturation implied by molecular formula C5H8O?
2
How many elements of unsaturation implied by molecular formula C8H11N?
3.5 --> 4
what two atomic orbitals or hybrid atomic orbitals overlap to form the C--C (double) sigma bond in ethylene?
C sp2 + C sp2
why is rotation about the carbon-carbon double bond in alkenes prohibited while relatively free rotation can occur about the carbon-carbon single bond in alkanes?
because in a double bond rotation would require breaking one of the bonds, costing a great deal of energy
Choose the most stable alkene among the following:
hex-1-ene
(Z)-hex-2-ene
(E)-hex-2-ene
all equal
(E)-hex-2-ene is most stable

both 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanol and 2,2-dimethylcyclohexanol
dehydrohalogenation of an alkyl halide by treating it with a strong base to yield an alkene product typically occurs by what reaction mechanism?
E2
which of the following statements applies to the E2 mechanism?
the C-H and C-X bonds that break must be anti
which of the following can show geometric isomerism?
