Answer: Alkaline metals(Group 1)

Explanation:

These elements react vigorously with cold water to give hydrogen gas and they have one electron in their outer-most shell which allows them to give electron freely and are good reducing agents.

examples of these elements are:

Hydrogen

Lithium

Sodium

Potassium

Rubidium

Hydrogen is the only gas in group 1.

Answer: The alkali metals reactivity is generally higher than the alkaline earth metals.

Explanation: This makes the alkaline earth metals with their two valence electrons less reactive than alkali metals with their one valence electron.

Alkali metals is ns1 and alkaline earth metals is ns2

Answer:

A. 1:3

Explanation:

If we look at the ions shown in the image attached to the question, we will notice that we have aluminum (Al^3+), a trivalent ion combining with the iodide ion (I^-).

Aluminum can easily give out its three outermost electrons to three atoms of iodine. If aluminum gives out its three electrons, it achieves the stable octet structure. Iodine atoms have seven electrons in their outermost shell. They only need one more electrons to complete their octet. This one electron can be gotten by the combination of three iodine atoms with one atom of aluminum. One electron each is transferred from the aluminum atom to each iodine atom to form AlI3 with a ratio of 1:3.

Which activity performed by a chemist is primarily based on an understanding of physics?

Hatshy [7]

Physical science, is the study of the composition, structure, properties and change of matter.[1][2] Chemistry is chiefly concerned with atoms and their interactions with other atoms - for example, [ the properties of the chemical bonds formed between atoms to create chemical compounds. As well as this, interactions including atoms and other phenomena - electrons and various forms of energy—are

Ghella [55]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a) Splitting pattern for Ha= 2+1 , Triplet

For Proton Hb and Hc both are equivalent to each other. non equivalent protons n= 3

Splitting pattern for Hb and Hc= 3+1 , Quartet

For Proton Hd, number of non equivalent protons n= 0

Splitting pattern for Hd= 0+1 , Singlet

b) Splitting pattern for Ha= 2+1 , Triplet

For Proton Hb and Hc both are equivalent to each other. non equivalent protons n= 3

Splitting pattern for Hb and Hc= 3+1 , Quartet

For Proton Hd, number of non equivalent protons n= 0

Splitting pattern for Hd= 0+1 , Singlet

c) The IUPAC name is Butan-2-ol

Explanation:

Considering the first question the rule used for prediction of splitting pattern is n+1 (Pascal's Triangle rule), where n is number of H atom on the adjacent carbon which are non equivalent.

According to that for molecule 1 as shown on the second uploaded image

For Proton Ha, number of non equivalent protons n= 2

Splitting pattern for Ha= 2+1 , Triplet

For Proton Hb and Hc both are equivalent to each other. non equivalent protons n= 3

Splitting pattern for Hb and Hc= 3+1 , Quartet

For Proton Hd, number of non equivalent protons n= 0

Splitting pattern for Hd= 0+1 , Singlet

Considering the second question for Molecule 2 as shown on the third uploaded image

For Proton Ha, number of non equivalent protons n= 1

Splitting pattern for Ha= 1+1=2 , Doublet

For Proton Hb, number of non equivalent protons n= 3

Splitting pattern for Hb= 3+1=4 , Quartet

For Proton Hc, number of non equivalent protons n= 3

Splitting pattern for Hc= 3+1=4 , Quartet

For Proton Hd, number of non equivalent protons n= 1

Splitting pattern for Ha= 1+1=2 , Doublet

Considering the third question

The name of the given molecule is gotten according to longest carbon chain = 4 (Prefix 'Butan')

Functional group = -OH (Suffix 'ol') at C-2

The IUPAC name is Butan-2-ol
