Much of chemistry is motivated by asking ''How''? How do I make a primary alcohol? React a Grignard reagent with formaldehyde. Physical chemistry is motivated by asking ''Why''? The Grignard reagent and formaldehyde follow a molecular dance known as a reaction mechanism in which stronger bonds are made at the expense of weaker bonds. If you are interested in asking ''why'' and not just ''how'', th...
