Answer:

Freon is a halide.

Explanation:

Freon are simple fluorinated organic aliphatic compounds which are industrially used refrigerants, organic solvents, aerosol propellants. Due to presence of member(s) of halogen family we can also treat them as halides of carbon.

For example:chloro-fluoro-carbons (CFCs), hydro-chloro-fluoro-carbons (HCFCs) etc.

These are also responsible for depletion of ozone layer from our atmosphere.

Answer : The correct answer is, Halide hydrocarbon.

Explanation :

Freon : Freon are the simple aliphatic organic compounds which may contains fluorine, carbon, hydrogen, chlorine or bromine. So, they are a type of chlorofluoro carbons (CFCs).

They are considered as refrigerants which are used in air-conditioning and refrigeration system.

How much heat is required, in calories, to raise the temperature of 57.8 g of silver from

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

87.3 calories of heat is required.

Explanation:

Heat = mcΔT

m= mass, c = specific heat of silver, T = temperature

H= 57.8 g * 0.057 cal/g°C * ( 43.5 - 17 °C)

H = 57.8 * 0.057 * 26.5

H = 87.3069 cal.

The heat required to raise the temperature of 57.8 g of silver from 17 °C to 43.5 °C is 87.3 calories.

What compound is formed when methyloxirane (1,2-epoxypropane) is reacted with ethylmagnesium bromide followed by treatment with

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Pentan-2-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have a Grignard reagent (ethylmagnesium bromide), therefore we will have the production of a carbanion (step 1). Then this carbanion can attack the least substituted carbon in the epoxide in this case carbon 1 (step 2). In this step, the epoxide is open and a negative charge is generated in the oxygen. The next step, is the treatment with aqueous acid, when we add acid the hydronium ion ( $H^+$ ) would be produced, so in the reaction mechanism, we can put the hydronium ion. This ion would be attacked by the negative charge produced in the second step to produce the final molecule: "Pentan-2-ol".
