An instructor will demonstrate how quickly turpentine (paint thinner, a ~2:1 mixture of alpha and beta pinene) reacts with iodine (I2) to give a large exotherm. Draw a curvy arrow-pushing mechanism that shows the formation of one SN1 substitution product and one E1 elimination product. Keep in mind that the bottom side of the alkene, as drawn, is less hindered!

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.

c. electrical charges of ionic bonds.
