<span>There are pros and cons as to whether CCA-treated (pressure-treated) wood should be removed from existing structures, and both sides are subjective.
Some of the arguments for leaving it include:
*When burned, the wood can release dangerous, and sometimes, lethal fumes.
*If buried in a landfill, the chemicals can soak into the ground and eventually contaminate ground water.
*Removing it can expose people to arsenic
*It is costly to remove an existing infrastructure that may or may not be harming people
*Studies conducted within the past decade have determined structures containing CCA-treated wood pose no hazard
*Studies also concluded that children who played on CCA-treated playgrounds were exposed to arsenic levels lower than those that naturally occur in drinking water
Some of the arguments for removing it include:
*The EPA determined that some children could face higher cancer risks from exposure to CCA-treated wood
*If removed, it will need to be disposed of and, as discussed above, that creates another set of problems that could affect a community's health.
A possible solution is to leave existing CCA-treated wood in place but seek viable, safe alternatives for future structures.</span>

Answer:
sublimation
Explanation:
immediately into a gas when thermal energy is added to it. The process is called sublimation. Sublimation is the change of state from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid state.
Answer:
Explanation:
In this case we want to know the structures of A (C6H12), B (C6H13Br) and C (C6H14).
A and C reacts with two differents reagents and conditions, however both of them gives the same product.
Let's analyze each reaction.
First, C6H12 has the general formula of an alkene or cycloalkane. However, when we look at the reagents, which are HBr in ROOR, and the final product, we can see that this is an adition reaction where the H and Br were added to a molecule, therefore we can conclude that the initial reactant is an alkene. Now, what happens next? A is reacting with HBr. In general terms when we have an adition of a molecule to a reactant like HBr (Adding electrophyle and nucleophyle) this kind of reactions follows the markonikov's rule that states that the hydrogen will go to the carbon with more hydrogens, and the nucleophyle will go to the carbon with less hydrogen (Atom that can be stabilized with charge). But in this case, we have something else and is the use of the ROOR, this is a peroxide so, instead of follow the markonikov rule, it will do the opposite, the hydrogen to the more substituted carbon and the bromine to the carbon with more hydrogens. This is called the antimarkonikov rule. Picture attached show the possible structure for A. The alkene would have to be the 1-hexene.
Now in the second case we have C, reacting with bromine in light to give also B. C has the formula C6H14 which is the formula for an alkane and once again we are having an adition reaction. In this case, conditions are given to do an adition reaction in an alkane. bromine in presence of light promoves the adition of the bromine to the molecule of alkane. In this case it can go to the carbon with more hydrogen or less hydrogens, but it will prefer the carbon with more hydrogens. In this case would be the terminal hydrogens of the molecules. In this case, it will form product B again. the alkane here would be the hexane. See picture for structures.
