Answer:

Compound A and compound B are constitutional isomers with molecular formula C3H7Cl.

When compound A is treated with sodium methoxide, a substitution reaction predominates. When compound B is treated with sodium methoxide, an elimination reaction predominates.

Explanation:

Constitutional isomers are the one which differs in the structural formula.

When compound A is treated with sodium methoxide, a substitution reaction predominates.

That means sodium methoxide is a strong base and a strong nucleophile.

But when it reacts with primary alkyl halides it forms a substitution product and when it reacts with secondary alkyl halide it forms mostly elimination product.

The reaction and the structures of A and B are shown below:

Hydrophobic compounds dissolve in
Anastaziya [24]
Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar molecules that group together to form micelles rather than be exposed to water. Hydrophobic molecules typically dissolve in nonpolar solvents (e.g., organic solvents).

Which of these substances acts as a buffer? <br> a. blood <br> b. lemon juice <br> c. curd
il63 [147K]
<span>The correct answer is( A) blood.

when the buffer solution its PH value changes very little when a small amount 

of strong acid or base is added to it, and here the bicarbonate buffering system is used to regular the PH of the blood that keeping the PH at nearly constant value by maintaining the original acidity or basicity of the solution.</span>
