im studying chem and i was wondering if anyone cn give me some advice on how to study organic chemistry and unit3
the problem with unit 3 is the detailed questions following the experiments
is there any site where i cn find experiments and their details and unit3 revision in general ?!
i already have the cgp revision guide...


also
in the syllabus it says :

explain why a metal halide and concentrated sulphuric acid should not be used when making a bromoalkane or an iodoalkane

free radical is  a specie that has an unpaired electron  where as -ve ion is an atom that has one less electron

I hope I helped :)
one more electron *


see the problem is tht they both have one more elctron than normal .. the way i see it ... in an ion the electron is in the orbitals... and in free radical its not :S
for eg.
cl- and .cl

They both dont have one more electron thn normal..
A negative ion is the one which has Gained one electron but
a free radical is just a specie with an unpaired electron for e.g all the halogens, they all have one unpaired electron..its not about losing or gaining electron here..

.. wen something gains an electron tht means tht it has one more electron (than its ground state) ??-.-

so all molecules like Li, H ,Na , K(who have one unpaired e-)are also free radicals ?

When they ask us to draw the ionic structure of NaCl, we need to do that in 3D, right? How do you draw it? Can someone please upload a photo, or link me with one?
Thanks a lot! :)
