Lesson 952 of 1524
An Overview of Organic Reactions
A bond is formed in a polar reaction when the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the electrophile.
Practice this chapterA bond is formed in a polar reaction when the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the electrophile. All chemical reactions, whether in the laboratory or in living organisms, follow the same chemical rules.
To understand both organic and biological chemistry, it’s necessary to know not just what occurs but also why and how chemical reactions take place. In this chapter, we’ve taken a brief look at the fundamental kinds of organic reactions, we’ve seen why reactions occur, and we’ve seen how reactions can be described
bond — formed in a polar reaction when the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the electrophile.

What does “bond” mean in An Overview of Organic Reactions?
- 1Use the wording this chapter gives for bond.
- 2The book says: formed in a polar reaction when the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the electrophile.
- 3Keep the answer tied to this term.
Result: formed in a polar reaction when the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the electrophile
Why. That is the meaning this chapter gives for bond.
Answer with the meaning this chapter gives. A nearby idea from the same book is a different term.
