Last minute chem doubts
I'm blanking like hell here so, couple of rapid fire doubts. 1. What are the deciding factors for melting point and boiling point of compounds? Specifically substituted benzenes. When does dipole moment come into play and when is it important to consider H-bonding? 2. For hybridisation of orbitals (or LCAO, whichever one you prefer), how does one decide which orbitals hybridise from a given set? Eg: For a sp³d hybridisation, can we know which d orbital is chosen? The d orbitals are initially degenerate so, what criterion applies? I thought I had these in notes, but apparently I don't. 🤷‍♂️

Binomial theorem/Series
I need help with questions 7 and 18. How does one solve these? I multiplied (1+x)³⁰ and (1-x)³⁰ for Q7, but got stuck midway. For Q18, I got 0, but the answer is -30C15. Idk where I went wrong.

Limits
Let's see if I remember how to type this out. $\lim_{x \to 0}\frac{cos(sinx)-cosx}{x^4}$ I tried series expansion, and got somewhere, but it didn't work out in the end.

Ionic Equilibrium.
Few small doubts. 1. When do we neglect terms like 1±α? How much does it impact the final answer? 2. When do we factor in the contribution of auto-ionisation for calculating pH of a solution?

I began revising the topic and can someone explain why cyclopropyl methyl carbocations are more stable than benzylic carbocations? There are no π-electrons in the cyclopropyl group to move towards the (+) charge on the methyl like in a phenyl group, so I don't get ir
