Answer:

Option a. Benzenecarbonitrile

Explanation:

You are not providing the picture of the compound. However, I manage to find the picture of it, so I'm gonna answer this with the picture. Its attached here at the end.

As for the IUPAC name of this compound, it would be Benzenecarbonitrile, or simply, benzonitrile.

This compound has the molecular formula C₆H₅CN. It receives this name over the other ones, because this is a aromatic cyanide, and aromatic cyanide has nitriles behavior, (Strength of the nitrogen over the carbon), therefore, this group has priority over the whole molecule. As the principal chain is the benzene, the carbonitrile is the radical of the group, and when cyano groups are as radical and not as principal chains, it has a behavior of nitrile, and it's named as nitrile. therefore, option b, cannot be the name.

phenylcyanide is naming the phenyl as radical, but the benzene is the principal group in this compound, and the cyanide is the radical. It happens the same thing with cyanophenyl.

Hope this helps

What led Thomson to decide that Dalton's atomic model needed to be revised?
jeka94

Answer:

Discovery of electron while studying the properties of cathode ray by Thomson suggested that Dalton atomic model should be revised.

Explanation:

Electron was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.
