Structure of Benzene: Kekulé Model01:07

Structure of Benzene: Kekulé Model

12.0K
In 1865, August Kekule suggested the structure of benzene according to the structural theory of organic chemistry based on the three assertions—formula of benzene is C6H6, all the hydrogens of benzene are equivalent, and each carbon must have four bonds due to its tetravalency.
He proposed that benzene has a cyclic structure of six carbon atoms attached to one hydrogen atom each, with three alternating pi bonds.

Structure of Benzene: Molecular Orbital Model

12.6K
According to the molecular orbital (MO) model, benzene has a planar structure with a regular hexagon of six sp2 hybridized carbons. As shown in Figure 1, each carbon is bonded to three other atoms with C–C–C and H–C–C bond angles of 120°. The C–H bond length is 109 pm, and the C–C bond length is 139 pm which is midway between the single bond length of sp3 hybridized carbons (154 pm) and sp2 hybridized carbons (133 pm).

Solving Equations Graphically01:27

Solving Equations Graphically

528
Graphical methods provide an intuitive and visual means of solving equations by representing functions on the coordinate plane. These methods are especially helpful for estimating solutions, analyzing complex expressions, or understanding the behavior of functions.To solve an equation graphically, it must first be expressed in the form y = f(x). The solution to the original equation corresponds to the x-values where the graph intersects the x-axis, meaning where f(x) = 0.For example, the linear...

Graphical Representation of Inequalities

220
The graph of the equation where y equals x squared forms a curve known as a parabola. This curve acts as a boundary in the coordinate plane, dividing it into distinct regions based on the relative position of points.When the equality sign in the equation is replaced with an inequality—such as greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, or less than or equal to—the graphical representation changes from a single curve into a broader shaded area that signifies the set of all...

Solving Inequalities Graphically

245
Solving inequalities graphically involves using a visual approach to determine where a mathematical expression meets a specific condition, such as being greater than or less than another value. By examining the position of a graph relative to the x-axis or another graph, it becomes possible to identify the range of x-values that satisfy the inequality. This method provides an intuitive understanding of solution intervals by showing where the inequality holds true.Graphical solutions to...

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom

58.4K
Shortly after de Broglie published his ideas that the electron in a hydrogen atom could be better thought of as being a circular standing wave instead of a particle moving in quantized circular orbits, Erwin Schrödinger extended de Broglie’s work by deriving what is now known as the Schrödinger equation. When Schrödinger applied his equation to hydrogen-like atoms, he was able to reproduce Bohr’s expression for the energy and, thus, the Rydberg formula governing hydrogen spectra.
