Answer:

The magnesium reacts with the acid, producing visible bubbles of hydrogen gas.

Airida [17]

Answer:

The IHD = 0

There is no unsaturation in the compound C4H9Cl

Explanation:

IHD = Index for Hydrogen Deficiency .It determines total number of unsaturation or Pi- bond present in the molecule.It is calculated using the formula:

For Molecule:
