Hey,
Just wondering how to explain the yield point run-off for low carbon steel. Why does LCS have an upper yield point, followed directly by a lower yield point?
Thanks,

Hi,
This question came up on my midterm and I had no idea how to answer it without redrawing the entire curve as a stress vs. strain curve (which obviously took too long to do).
Anyway, I'm just requesting a general procedure, not a numerical answer. If you had a Load (y-axis) vs...

I'm curious about how a SN1 reaction can yield only one product (if it can, at all), rather than two (ultimately leading to a retention of stereochemistry).
Would sterical reasons and/or its orbitals also have any play into this?
