Answer:

C. Deductive reasoning

Explanation:

Deductive reasoning is a reasoning or logical process whereby a conclusion is drawn based on the belief of multiple premises that are generally assumed to be true. It is a logical process in which one or multiple statements reaches a logical conclusion.

In the question, the statement assumed to be true is that <em>noble gases are unreactive because of their electronic structures.</em>

The conclusion thus drawn from the premise is that <em>if other elements could be made to achieve noble gases electronic structures (</em><u><em>this is the reason why they are unreactive - the fact)</em></u><em> they would be more stable.</em>

<em />

Therefore, deductive reasoning moves from a wilder reasoning to a specific (narrower) reasoning.

Can an ether form hydrogen bonds in the same way as does an ester
belka [17]

Yes, an OH group from ethanol can form a hydrogen bond to the ether O atom in the same way as it can do so with the single-bonded O atom in the ester.

The O atom in the carbonyl group of the ester can also form H-bonds with ethanol.
