| 11. | The s-orbital ( lone pair ) is inert and the vacant p-orbital is very reactive.
|
| 12. | It is a matter of taste whether one includes the lone pair in a drawing.
|
| 13. | However, not all non-bonding pairs of electrons are considered by chemists to be lone pairs.
|
| 14. | Is a lone pair more real than an orbital?
|
| 15. | :Btw, carbon has no lone pairs in graphite.
|
| 16. | Non-bonding orbitals are the equivalent in molecular orbital theory of the lone pairs in Lewis structures.
|
| 17. | The lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen of the hydroxyl group also makes alcohols nucleophiles.
|
| 18. | :: Carbon doesn't hold lone pairs very well.
|
| 19. | An additional deprotonation by a alpha-beta unsaturation and pushing a lone pair onto the aldimine nitrogen.
|
| 20. | All the interaction sites are centered on the atoms; there are no " lone pairs ".
