Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

when an iron bar rust is an example of a chemical change in which a new substance is formed and the change is not easily reversible.for iron to rust moisture and air must be present.while when a substance freezes,it can be easily reversed through melting and no new substance is formed.this change is termed a physical change.

Two common methods to generate an aldehyde is by oxidation of an alcohol and through ozonolysis.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a. True.

Explanation:

Only primary and secondary alcohols can oxidise to give an aldehyde. But a weak oxidizing agent must be used to prevent formation of a carboxylic acid or ketone.

weak oxidizing agents: Chromyl chloride, silver/oxygen/500°C

take an example of ethanol:

 ${ \bf{CH _{3} CH_{2}OH \: \: \frac{Ag/O_{2} }{500 \degree C} > \: \:CH _{3} CHO}}$ 

 ${ \sf{CH _{3} CHO \: \: is \: ethanal}}$ 

By ozonolysis:

Here, reactants are Ozone gas, Carbon tetrachloride at a temperature (<20°C), ethanoic acid, zinc and water.

take an example of propanol:

if it undergoes ozonolysis, it gives ethanal and methanal.

What is the name for C2I3

Sidana [21]

Answer: The correct name for the compound $C_2I_3$ is, Dicarbon triiodide.

Explanation:

$C_2I_3$ is a covalent compound because in this compound the sharing of electrons takes place between carbon and iodine.. Both the elements are non-metals. Hence, it will form covalent bond.

The naming of covalent compound is given by:

The less electronegative element is written first.

The more electronegative element is written second. Then a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.

Hence, the correct name for the compound $C_2I_3$ is, Dicarbon triiodide..
