By Pleistocene ice age is meant the glacial periods that appeared in the Pleistocene. The Pleistocene is the first epoch of the Quaternary. It is an epoch when there was a so called ''ice age'' on the Earth, or rather a glacial period. During this ice age the planet had much lower temperatures on a global scale. The climate was also much drier. Lot of ocean water was frozen in the ice sheets that were stretching deep into the North American and Eurasian continents, which resulted in much lower sea levels that today as well. The places further north than 40 degrees of latitude were almost exclusively covered with ice, so life was almost impossible apart from some coastline places.
Answer:
Radium is used to produce Radon
Explanation:
Radon is a gas used to treat cancer (certain types).
Answer:
Most substituted alkene is produced as a major product
Explanation:
- Dehydration of 3-methyl-2-butanol proceeds through E1 mechanism to form alkenes.
- Most substituted alkene is produced as major product because of presence of highest number of hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms corresponding to the produced double bond (Saytzeff product).
- Here, a H-shift also occurs in one of the intermediate step during dehydration to produce more stable tertiary carbocation.
- Reaction mechanism has been shown below.

Well in this
case, silver
nitrate is reduced:
Ag<span>+ </span><span>+ </span>e<span>− </span>→ Ag(s) ↓
Meanwhile, the aluminum
is oxidized forming a positive ion:
Al(s<span>) → </span>Al<span>3+ </span><span>+ 3</span>e−
To get the
overall reaction, we add the half
equations so that the electrons are eliminated:
Al(s<span>) + 3</span>Ag<span>+ </span><span>→ </span>Al<span>3+ </span><span>+ 3</span>Ag(s)
And similarly:
Al(s<span>) + 3</span>AgNO3(aq<span>) → </span>Al(NO3)3(aq<span>) + 3</span>Ag(s<span>)</span>
