If we are to react CH3CH2CH=CH2 with Hot KMnO4, we'd get a carboxylic acid and CO2, right?

hot acidified conc KMnO4 yes acid water and CO2If we are to react CH3CH2CH=CH2 with Hot KMnO4, we'd get a carboxylic acid and CO2, right?
I think the reason is that, firstly, yes the only types of electrophilic reactions (as far as I know) are addition and substitution. Secondly, I'll write an example of an elimination reaction with an alcohol:But we use an acid in both the reactions, and the reaction is initiated by an H(with a slightly positive charge) atom attached to the acid. Will this, then, not be an electrophilic reaction?
Or is it that only addition/substitution reactions can be electrophilic or nucleophilic, and elimination can not be?
If so, reason please.
Cause we're still using an acid where the H atom can be considered as an electrophile.
Well Look here: http://www.docbrown.info/page06/OrgMechs1b.htm#catalysedI think the reason is that, firstly, yes the only types of electrophilic reactions (as far as I know) are addition and substitution. Secondly, I'll write an example of an elimination reaction with an alcohol:
CH3CH2CH2OH > CH3CH=CH2 + H2O , I took this from a book and clearly the concentrated H2SO4 isn't included as a reactant, so my logical explanation would be that the acid acts as a catalyst in this reaction.
bond polarity means what is the EN value difference of the bond . this will dictate bond strength and mp bp
Thank you sooo much!!!!!High bond polarity= High bond energy= reduced bond length. This means the covalent bond is strong.
No problemoThank you sooo much!!!!!
Jazakum Allah khairan!!! May Allah S.W.T bless you with the highest grades Aameen!!
i dont get it y am i the only person who finds chem easy and phy hard :/
just one off topic post all online pls reply
which pak uni are u guys going to apply to?
ohhh :O i started to feel scared from u
my brother .NUST or FAST most probably.. I don't really know which universities are good for Computer Sciences
u applying in same uni as me jst sayingBrother?
What you taking .. and which university?
sorry but chem gets hectic after a while so got distracted
I think it makes a covalent bond stronger. And it makes a covalent compound more reactive..In the syllabus it is written explain the terms bond energy, bond length and bond polarity and use them to compare the reactivities of covalent bonds.
My doubt is, what does bond polarity do to covalent bond, like how does it affect it?
Does the solubility of group2 metal hydroxides increase or decrease down the group?
Can you tell a nice answer to why.increase slightly
