    We are not allowed to do your homework for you. However, we are willing to help you. In order to do that you will have to provide us with the reasons you came up with your answers.

    Remember, you can't take us with you to your finals, so you will have to learn to do this on your own.

    Saying all those answers in a row won't help. THINK first, and deduce then what the answer should be. Do you know what is a pi bond?

    Also, being rude to members won't help either. On the contrary, we feel less keen to help.
