Answer:

heroic

Explanation:

Bayer, a German pharmaceutical company, named the substance it synthesized "heroin", probably from the word heroisch, German for heroic, because in field studies people using the medicine felt "heroic".

BTW, I found this information on this wedsite: https://www.answers.com/Q/Where_did_heroin_get_its_name

Answer:

Honestly makes no sense sorry :(

Explanation:

I can try though.. There are three types of selectivity possible for any synthesis: (i) Chemoselectivity is deciding which group reacts. (ii) Regioselectivity is where the reaction takes place in that group. (iii) Stereoselectivity is how the group reacts with respect to the stereochemistry of the product.

A stereospecific mechanism specifies the stereochemical outcome of a given reactant, whereas a stereoselective reaction selects products from those made available by the same, non-specific mechanism acting on a given reactant. Of stereoisomeric reactants, each behaves in its own specific way.

I tried to explain it the best I could.

Hopefully this helps you :)

Relation between glancing and angle of deviation<br>​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

the Glancing angle is the angle between the incident ray and plane mirror which is 90o in the given case. The angle between the direction of the incident ray and the reflected ray is the angle of deviation. Since the angle of deviation for a plane mirror is twice the glancing angle, the angle of deviation is 1800.
