Chem 210: Chapter 8 Correct 100%

Chem 210: Chapter 8 Correct 100% Addition - ANSWERA reaction involving an increase in the number of groups attached to the alkene and a decrease in the number Regiochemistry - ANSWERThe orientation of a chemical reaction on an unsymmetrical substrate. In additions to alkenes, the regiochemistry of the addition involves which part of the reagent adds to which end of an unsymmetrical alkene. Regioselective reaction - ANSWERA reaction in which one direction of bond making or bond breaking occurs preferentially over all other directions. For example, the addition of HCL is regioselective, predicted by Markovnikov's rule. Hydroboration-oxidation is regioselective because it consistently gives anti-Markovnikov orientation. Markovnikov's rule - ANSWERWhen a proton acid adds to the double bond of an alkene, the proton bonds to the carbon atom that already has more hydrogen atoms. In an electrophilic addition to an alkene, the electrophile adds in such a way as to generate
