Answer:

(C) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong base such as CH₃​​Li.

Explanation:

Acetylene (C₂H₂) can be converted to the acetylide anion (C₂⁻²) when treated with a base because it will donate protons (2H⁺). So it will be a neutralization reaction. NaNH₂ and NaOH are strong bases because they are good electrons donators ( NaNH₂ has pair of electrons on N, and NaOH has the group OH⁻), but CH₃Li has no pair of electrons to donate, so it's not a strong base.

Methanethiol, CH3SH, has a substantial dipole mement (1.52) even though carbon and sulfer have identical electronegativities. Ex
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The whole molecule is polar because Sulfur has lone pairs but Carbon doesn't. Lone pairs count more toward polarity, shifting dipole toward S.

Explanation:

Even though carbon and sulfur have identical values of electronegativities, the molecule, CH_3SH is polar because of the presence of the lone pairs on the sulfur atom.

The C-S bond is not polar because the both the atoms have electronegatiivty. <u>But S has lone pairs which can attract the bond pairs of the bond between the S and H and thus acquires slightly negative charge and H acquires slightly positive charge.</u>

Flourine is more reactive than chlorine​
IRISSAK [1]
Justification for your answer

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

Chlorine is less reactive than fluorine because the outer electrons in a chlorine atom are further from the nucleus than the outer electrons in a fluorine atom. It is harder for a chlorine atom to gain an electron than it is for a fluorine atom.

There are three things to consider every single time relative reactivity is unknown; atomic radius, shielding, and number of electrons. The reactivity is the halogens ability to gain an electron, so number of electrons already in the atom plays a vital role. Chlorine has more electrons so repels a reacting electron with greater force than fluorine, making it less likely to react.

Fluorine also has fewer electron shells than chlorine, so there are fewer electrons between the positive nucleus and the reacting electron to essentiallly block, or weaken, the electromagnetic attraction. This is shielding. Lastly, fluorine is much smaller molecule than chlorine, and the shorter distance, or radius, between the nucleus and the electron again makes it more likely to attract the electron and react to gain a noble gas configuration.
