Correct Answer: option 1 i.e. C

Reason: 
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.

(1) C.

Classify methanal according to the position of the c=o group
seraphim [82]

Answer :  Methanal also known as Formaldehyde CH_{2}O is a chemical Aldehyde which contain ( -CHO) group.

Explanation :

In organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group which contain a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom i.e, ( C=O).

     If carbonyl group is present in a compound then it can be a carboxylic (RCOOH), aldehyde (RCHO), ketone (RCOR'), ester ((RCOOR') or amide (RCONR'R") group.

Here are some functional groups naming according to the<em> IUPAC</em> rules and image also attached,

Carboxylic acid   →    (RCOOH)    →    ( name end in 'OIC ACID' )

Aldehyde             →    (RCOH)       →    ( name end in 'AL' )

Ketone                 →    (RCOR')       →    ( name end in 'ONE' )

Ester                     →    (RCOOR')    →    ( name end in 'ATE' )

Amide                   →    (RCONR'R") →    ( name end in 'AMIDE' )

In an aldehyde, atleast one hydrogen atom must be attached to the carbonyl carbon. For an aldehyde, remove ( -e) from alkane name and add ( -al) at the end of the compound.

Methanal is the IUPAC name for Formaldehyde.

Arturiano [62]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

One tank of goldfish is feed the normal amount which is once a day, a second tank is fed twice a day, and a third tank is fed four times a day during a 6 week study. The fishes' body fat is recorded daily.

Independent Variable-

Dependent Variable-

Constants

Control Group-

Answer:

A) The amount of food the gold fish receives

B) Body fat of the gold fish

C) -Type of fish used in the study (gold fish)

Time period within which the fishes were fed (Six week period)

Shape and size of tank

D) group of gold fish fed the normal amount

Explanation:

The purpose of the study is to determined the impact of amount of feed on the body fat of gold fish. Hence, the amount of feed is the independent variable while the body fat of the feed is the dependent variable.

The control group receives the normal amount of feed (once a day). The fishes are all gold fish, fed within a six week period. All the tanks were of the same shape and size. These are the constants in the study.
