Chemistry
1 answer:
qaws [65]2 years ago
3 0

I believe the answer would be C

The the compound of interest i.e.  XCl4, since there are 4 Cl atoms bonded to X. This signifies that the valency of X is 4.

There atomic number of C is 6. It's electronic configuration is giving by 1s2 2s2 2p2. Thus, there are 4 electrons in valence shell of C. This signifies that valency of C is 4. Hence the compound present in present case is CCl4.

Hope this helps :)

For a school event 1/6 of the athletic field is reversed for the fifth -grade classes the reserved part of the field is divided
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

\frac{1}{24}

Explanation:

Given:

For a school event, 1/6 of the athletic field is reserved for the fifth -grade classes and the reserved part of the field is divided equally among the 4 fifth grade classes in the school.

To find: fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class

Solution:

Fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for four fifth classes = \frac{1}{6}

So, fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class = \frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{6})=\frac{1}{24}

What alkene reacts the fastest with HBr?
Rasek [7]
The first step in the reaction is the double bond of the Alkene going after the H of HBr. This protonates the Alkene via Markovnikov's rule, and forms a carbocation. The stability of this carbocation dictates the rate of the reaction. 

<span>So to solve your problem, protonate all your Alkenes following Markovnikov's rule, and then compare the relative stability of your resulting carbocations. Tertiary is more stable than secondary, so an Alkene that produces a tertiary carbocation reacts faster than an Alkene that produces a secondary carbocation.

Groups of atoms that are added to carbon backbones and give them unique properties are known as
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

             Groups of atoms that are added to carbon backbones and give them unique properties are known as <u>Functional Groups</u>.

Explanation:

                   In organic chemistry they are called as Functional Group because they are the active part of a molecule. These groups give a unique characteristic to molecule both chemically and physically. Also, each functional group represent a different class of compounds.

Examples:

S No.                          Functional Group                                 Name

1                                   R--X                                             Alkyl Halides

2                                   R--OH                                          Alcohols

3                                  R--NH₂                                         Amines

4                                  R--O--R                                         Ethers

5                                   R--CO--R                                      Ketones

6                                   R--CO--H                                     Aldehydes

7                                  R--CO--OH                                  Carboxylic acids

8                                   R--CO--X                                     Acid Halides

10                                R--CO--NR₂                                 Acid Amides

11                                 R--CO-OR'                                  Esters
