Answer:
E) A, B, and C
Explanation:
Syn addition refers to the addition of two substituents on the same face or side of a double bond. This differed from anti addition which a occurs across opposite face of the double bond.
Hydrogenation, hydroboration and dihydroxylation all involve syn addition to the double bond, hence the answer chosen above.
A. Large atoms have valence electrons farther from the nucleus and lose them more readily, so they are more reactive than small atoms.
For example, the valence electron of a small atom like Li is tightly held. <em>Lithium gently fizzes</em> on the surface as it reacts with the water to produce hydrogen.
In contrast, the valence electron of a large atom like Cs is so loosely held that <em>cesium exlodes </em>on contact with water.
