Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Viscosity is defined as the ability of a liquid to resist its flow. When a substance has high viscosity then it is known as a viscous substance.

For example, honey has high viscosity.

But when we increase the temperature then there occurs more number of collisions between the molecules. Due to this there will be increase in kinetic energy of the molecules and they will be able to move the fluid easily.

As, Kinetic energy = $\frac{3}{2}kT$

Thus, we can conclude that as the temperature of a liquid increases, its viscosity decreases.

Give regents and mechanism

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Reagents: 1) $BH_3$ 2) $H_2_O2$ , $OH^-$

Mechanism: Hydroboration

Explanation:

In this case, we have a hydration of alkenes reaction. But, in this example, we have an anti-Markovnikov reaction. In other words, the "OH" is added in the least substituted carbon. Therefore we have to choose an anti-Markovnikov reaction: "hydroboration".

The first step of this reaction is the addition of borane ( $BH_3$ ) to the double bond. Then in the second step, we have the deprotonation of the hydrogen peroxide, to obtain the peroxide anion. In the third step, the peroxide anion attacks the molecule produced in the first step to produce a complex compound in which we have a bond " $BH_2-O-OH$ ". In step number 4 we have the migration of the C-B bond to oxygen. Then in step number 5, we have the attack of $OH^-$ on the $O-BH_2$ to produce an alkoxide. Finally, the water molecule produce in step 2 will protonate the molecule to produce the alcohol.
