I believe it is "The temperature of the ice sheet will be lowered" because it will most likely lower just a bit due to the heat. It's not going to fully melt but it will lower just a bit.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When warm air will rise above a polar ice sheet then it means due to high kinetic energy between the warm air molecules they will collide rapidly and frequently from one place to another.

As a result, warm air molecules will expand at a faster rate. As polar ice sheet is colder in nature therefore, it will absorb the heat from warm air.

Hence, the polar ice sheet will start to melt as absorption of heat will generate kinetic energy between the molecules of polar ice sheet.

Thus, we can conclude that heat will be transferred from the air mass to the ice.

What kind of product is formed when a ketone reacts with a grignard reagent followed by protonation?
svet-max [94.6K]

c. a tertiary alcohol; when a ketone reacts with a grignard reagent followed by protonation a tertiary alcohol is formed.

More about tertiary alcohol:

No hydrogen atoms are bonded to the functional group's carbon in a tertiary alcohol. Alcohols that have a hydroxyl group bonded to the carbon atom and are linked to three alkyl groups are referred to as tertiary alcohols. These alcohols' structural makeup largely determines their physical characteristics.

This -OH group's existence enables alcohols to create hydrogen bonds with the atoms next to them. Because of this weak connection, alcohols have higher boiling points than their alkane counterparts.

The alcohol is referred to as a tertiary (3°) alcohol if the carbon atom carrying the alcohol group is connected to three other carbon atoms in the alcohol molecule.

What type of organic compound has the empirical formula CH2O and can serve as energy storage or the starting material for fats a
Luda [366]
Carbohydrates. CH2O is the most basic formula of simple sugars.Empirical formula is the lowest whole number ratio of atoms in a formula.For example glucose is C6H12O6 can be reduced by 6 to get CH2O. Simples sugars include glucose and fructose which can serve as sources of energy for fats and amino acids.
