<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A galaxy is defined as the huge collection of gas, dust and billions of stars along with their solar system. All these systems are held together by the gravitational attraction. For Example: Milky Way.

A solar system is defined as the collection of a star, planets along with their moons, satellites of the planets, asteroids, meteoroids and comets. In the solar system planets revolve around the Star. For Example: Our Solar System has a star named Sun and eight planets revolve around it.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Four substitution products are obtained. The carbocation that forms can react with either nucleophile (H2O or CH3OH) from either the top or bottom side of the molecule

Explanation:

An SN1 reaction usually involves the formation of a carbocation in the slow rate determining step. This carbocation is now attacked by a nucleophile in a subsequent fast step to give the desired product.

However, the product is obtained as a racemic mixture because the nucleophile may attack from the top or bottom of the carbocation hence both attacks are equally probable.

The attacking nucleophile in this case may be water or CH3OH

What does “like dissolves like” mean?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

c  solvents dissolve chemicals with the same polarity ( ex. both are polar)

Explanation:

Like dissolves like is one of the central rule that guides the solubility of one substance in another.

  • It fully suggests substance having the same nature as in polarity-wise will dissolve one another.
  • For example, water is a polar liquid, it will dissolve table salt because it i also polar.
  • Water cannot dissolve oil because oil is non-polar.

After substantial heating, 6.25 g of iron produced 18.00 g of a compound with chlorine. The empirical formula is:
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option A. FeCl3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Mass of the compound formed = 18g

From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The compound therefore contains:

Iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:

Step 1:

Divide by their molar mass

Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112

Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331

Step 2:

Divide by the smallest

Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1

Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3

The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
