Answer:
The order will be:
CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
Explanation:
According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system we rank the groups based on the atomic number of directly attached atom with the chiral carbon.
For example: between C and H, we rank Carbon first.
If the same atoms are attached for different groups then we prioritized based on the second element with highest atomic number.
For example:
Among CH₃ and C₂H₅, the priority will be given to C₂H₅.
If an atom is double or triple bonded to the directly attached atom then each pi bond is considered to be a new atom.
Hence CH=CH₂ means, that there are two carbons attached to CH carbon.
So the order based on above selection rules will be:
CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
NaN₃ is the chemical formula for Sodium Azide
There are 137 atoms in this molecule. C55 + H72 = 127. 127 + Mg (one atom of magnesium = 128. 128 + N4 = 132. 132 + O5 = 137.
Remember that a cation will be smaller than its neutral atom, and an anion will be larger than its neutral atom. This would automatically eliminate answer choices A and D.
Also keep in mind that atomic radii decreases from left to right as you move along a periodic table. It also decreases from bottom up.
Atomic radii increases as you move from right to left and as you go from up to down.
As bromine is higher up in the periodic table than Iodine, it would have a smaller radius. Iodine would have a larger radius.
The correct answer is B. Br
