  • Are all molecules with chiral centers chiral?

    I find it difficult to imagine a molecule and then its mirror image and then try to superimpose it to see if its chiral or not. So far all the chiral molecules i have come across have chiral centres. So i was wondering if it means that if a molecule has a chiral centre then its chiral?

    Thanks

  • Can someone explain how this metal complex is formed?

    CoCl2 + water = [Co(H20)6]^2+ + 2Cl^-

    From what I understand Co in this reaction has a charge of +2 since it has bonded with 2 Cl ions which have a -1 charge. Then we have an empty 4s orbital, 7 electrons in the 3d orbital and an empty 4p orbital. This gives us a total of 11 electrons that can occupy these orbitals and so a maximum of 5 electron pairs right? But according to the equation 6 electron pairs have been formed. How is this possible?

    I'm confused so if anyone who knows where I am going wrong or what I have misunderstood please let me know.

    Thanks

  • Help solving a geometric series problem?

    Can someone clear something up for me please in this maths problem. (second term) T2= 0.5 and Sum to infinity(S) is 4. Find T1 and common ratio r. If I let T2 =ar^n-1 i end up with ar=0.5. Also S to infinity =a/1-r. Then I subbed in r=0.5/a into the equation for S and I got r = 4/3. Which is wrong. If I sub in a = 4(1-r) from the equation for S into T2 I get 0.25(2+2^.5) for r which is correct. Why can't I sub in the r=0.5/a

  • What happens if you don't seed torrents?

    I originally used to always seed whatever I download. Like if i downloaded a big file, i'd leave the program running for the whole day on the computer to get a ratio of 1 or over. But now i don't seed because people tell me the more i seed the more chances i have of getting caught. But if i don't seed could i get banned. ( i use kickasstorrents). I don't want to get caught downloading those files. What should I do?

  • Best holiday destination in europe?

    Hi I am a 16 year old boy and my family are thinking of going on a holiday this May/June. I just can't make up my mind on where to go. I want to go to a place with nice beaches as well as some place nearby for adventure sports such as scuba diving, paragliding, mountain biking, etc. or maybe a theme park. Right now i have Spain in mind. I was thinking that the beaches are good and I could go to Port Aventura theme park. So what do you think? Is it a good option? Any other suggestions? I want a place where there are fun things to do for people my age.

    Thanks in advance

  • What can I buy in China?

    I am going to China in a few days. I will be visiting Kunshan, Shanghai and possibly Suzhou and i was wondering if I could buy anything unique or cheap from there.

    For example, are electronic goods cheap to buy there? As far as I know most of them are made there. If they are cheap where exactly do I get them from?

    Also I heard that silk is cheap to buy there. Where in those cities can i get it?

    Are there any other goods that are cheap or unique that I can buy there?

    Thanks very much
