I am looking for a source about the mesomeric effect ,i couldn't find anything satisfactory, so if you have any suggestion?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
Thousands of easily googlable sources, no idea what you don't like about them so no way to point you to the one that will be better for you.
 
Second thread on the same subject merged into the original thread
Is it any relationship between the mesomeric effect resonance structure and formal charges?

What HAVE you found so far?
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
