    For the Ketone - H+ reaction in the last example, you can draw the resonance structure and find it's more stable for the positive charge to be at the carbon and have 2 lone pairs on O, making O neutral and C (which is less electronegative) carry the positive charge.

    Hi! Great video. But why does the oxygen become positive when it has one single bond and one double bond?

    • @diegovelazquez5643
      @diegovelazquez5643 Před 4 lety +9

      because the oxygen is using one of its pair of electrons to form a covalent coordinated bond, so technically, the oxygen is "losing" (just sharing its electrons) with the electrophile

    In 3:05 , why do you draw fluoride ion with 8 electrons and a negative charge? Why not draw it with 7 electrons or is there something I'm missing?

    • @aniketsatpathy1532
      @aniketsatpathy1532 Před 11 měsíci +1

      See @kenzo_254 You're totally right !
      but it is the way of representation that the Fluoride had 7e- than the 1 extra e- came that's what the negative sign indicating and since extra electron came it formed lone pair with the 7th electron
      simple !!!!!

      see ! that's really simple as the video suggested depending on the condition the ketone can behave as both electrophile or nucleophile and since
      video also mentioned that the nucleophile is the lewis base and the electrophile is the lewis acid
      so, yes you may consider it as base or nucleophile !

      Because the oxygen donated one lone pair of electrons to form a covalent bond

    • @Akosua411
      @Akosua411 Před 4 lety +6

      No, because since nucleophiles have electrons to give, they're originally negative due to the electrons' negative charge. When they do give those electrons away, they become positive in the products.

    • @MaulikSrivastava
      @MaulikSrivastava Před 4 lety +6

      Nucleophile= nucleus loving. Keep in mind that nuclei always contain protons (which are positively charged). And if nucleophiles are proton/nucleus loving(as their name suggests), it is implied that they *themselves* are negatively charged(because opposite charges attract)
      Hope this helps

      *Lewis Acid

    • @minired7477
      @minired7477 Před 2 lety +1

      It's just a definition of acid and base
      There are other definition for acids and base such as:
      Arrhenius acid: produces H+ in solution
      Arrhenius base: produces OH-(hydroxide) in solution
      There is also the bronstead-lowry definition of acid and base but I'll be going off the point so
      Acorrding to the Lewis definition of an acid: they are electron pair acceptor, this is the reason why they are called electrophiles because they are normally cation, meaning they have less electrons so they accept the electron pair
      And for Lewis base definition: they are electron pair donars, they donate their electrons to the Lewis acid, this is the reason why they are called neutrophiles, because they are normally anion meaning they are electron rich, so they can give up their electrons and donate it

    • @aniketsatpathy1532
      @aniketsatpathy1532 Před 11 měsíci

      Answer to such question is quite simple
      see boron has only 3 valence electron and it bond with the 3 hydrogen atom and despite of being electron deficient molecule such molecule do exists
      so as i mentioned it is a electron deficient then , wouldn't it be considered as the nucleophile
      You think ?
