Wow thank you so much! This helped me understand this so much better. A lot of ochem material I've seen speeds past this but you take it nice and slow. I super appreciate it and I feel much better about this!
yes due to resonance (conjugation) and also due to a hydrogen bond between the keto and enol group. The keto-enol tautomer has 76% appearance. I think he made a little mistake there.
@Nissipriya Anandhakrishnan he means bond dissociation enthalpy ( which is basically the energy required to break a bond) more energy is required to break a strong bond like c=o as compared to the c=c bond hence in most cases (not every case)the keto form is more stable than the enol form
@@chitranshjawere4953 yeah but he is referring to bond dissociation energy which is negative so what more in magnitude is lesser You get the point right but your statement is correct stability and energy arr inversely related
@@metroidfan77yes65 but why that c double bond carbon is more stable than c double bond oxygen? I cannot relate this point as my teacher also has told the same
how does the H3O+ not get consumed here i don't understand.. it is first transformed to H2O then again to H3O+, why is this not a consumption? (sorry just started my studies)
After the reaction you find the H3O+ in the same form as it was before the rxn, so even though it is used in the reaction, it isn't consumed permanently and you get is back in it's original form so basically it is used to speed up the process, and that is the definition of catalysts: they are the substance that increases the rate of a reaction without itself being consumed. we get them back in the final product. i might be wrong since i'm also a student.
@@ihaveagoal4665 U are correct ! The amount of h30+ used for reaction is gotten back after the reaction so it can be cancelled out as being on reactant side of first reaction and on product side of second while practically performing experiments it always seems that the h30+(or anything else in similar situation) isn't even used and just acted as a catalyst
it doesn't matter the time all the matter is that you are understanding the mechanism ,well I do not feel that the professor is in hurry all he is care about that we are receiving the information correctly
