you are just awesome with your concepts and at the same time you can explain them

like a true genius. man u r just too good. keep up your good work. it really helps.

Better than my chemistry teacher explains to me!!

How do you know about EVERYTHING!!Thx man genious

there's a huge difference between your teacher rushing through the material telling u that certain things "just happen" and actually explaining the steps and demonstrating why electrons behave this way. Thank you.

= O I actually learned.

@icemanbto see electron pair will be transferred on the left side...means h will be attached on the left side since its positive and attracted 2wards negative carbon... Why is electron pair shifted to left not right..... it suffers repulsion from electrons of alkyl grp (CH2-CH2-CH3) on the right side.........

[Ayoosh101]

@goldensilverstar it means it attracts the shared electron in a covalent bond towards it self ( since nuclear charge on BR >> nuclear charge on H+)... thats what he means by hogging!!!

[Ayoosh101]

Okay sal, it isnt like H-Br will go into water to dissociate into into H+ and Br- and then it attacks the c=c double bond so that an electron pair is transfered on one carbon. which gives one carbon a negative charge and another a positive charge. The H+ will be attracted to negative carbon and Br- to postive carbon. electron pair will shift on terminal carbon since alkyl grp has a repelling effect.........

what does he mean by hogging electrons

Nevermind i just watched the markovnikov video, #khanisgod

[icemanbto]

quick question about regioselectivity, why would the h attach to the left side of the double bond preceeding the bromide step, would they be able to be arranged vice versa?
