Hi, I would like to know how to use the anti-clockwise rule to help me predict whether a reaction will occur.
 i hope someone can explain for me i tried to read about it alot but i cant seem to understand how the arrows help to predict whether a reaction will occur or no ): ?

here are examples :

Using the anti-clockwise rule:
( image attached down )

The reverse reaction is favored, so MnO2 and HCL will not react.


how did they figure out just by arrows that it will not react D: ???



Good explanation here - http://www.chemistry-react.org/go/Faq/Faq_28302.html

Can anybody help me understand 2 things

1) Dot & Cross Diagrams, i just want to get the basic idea of what were supposed to do here cuz sometimes they get confusing :(

2) Ionic equations, how do we write ionic equations?

Thank you =)

It's simple enough.  ;)
Dot and Cross diagrams are used to show the electronic configuratoins of elements and ions. The elements of one element in the compund are shown by dots, those of the second element by crosses.

In hybridization, when considering ethene, the C=C has a sigma bond formed by sp3-sp3 overlap and a pi bond formed by sp2-sp2 overlap, does the pi bond bring the two atoms closer to each other and hence the bond length of C=C becomes less than that of C-C?

& does a shorter bond mean that there's more attraction between the two atoms and that more energy will be required to separate them?

A double bond is composed of one single sp-sp bond and a second pi-pi bond, the first bond is already holding the atoms together, the pi-pi bond increases the strength of the bond and so draws the atoms closer together. This also results in the sp-sp bond strengthening as orbital overlap increases.

Greater the attraction between the nuclei and the electrons smaller will be the distance between them and so, yes; the double bond requires more energy to seperate them.

Okay, thank you! :)

May I just confirm one more thing?

The products of incomplete combustion, I recall from IG's that it was carbon monoxide and water, but in my edexcel AS chemistry textbook, it says carbon [soot], carbondioxide and carbonmonoxide, so which one is right?
