Answer

Option D

When a grignard Reagent reacts with Ethylene Oxide... A Primary Alcohol is Formed.

CH2OCH2 + RMgX ==> RCH2CH2OMgX

When You Hydrolyze

You have

RCH2CH2OH

The Text written below may come in handy someday.

Hope you find it helpful.

One of the preparation of Alcohols is via Reaction with "Grignard Reagents" .

Grignard Reagents have the formula "RMgX"

Where R is an alkyl group eg CH₃, C₂H₅ etc

X is a halogen eg Cl,Br etc

Ethylmagnesiumbromide fits the description of grignard Reagent from what I wrote above.

The formula for Ethylmagnesiumbromide is

"C₂H₅MgBr"

Now

When grignard reagents react with Alkanals... They form alcohols.

Note this trend.

When a grignard reagent reacts with Methanal(Formaldehyde)... It forms a Primary Alcohol.

When a grignard reagent reacts with any other Alkanal besides Methanal(formaldehyde) ... it forms Secondary Alcohols.

Which of the following does NOT indicate that a chemical change may have taken place?
labwork [276]

The following does NOT indicate that a chemical change may have taken place is fracture formation. A chemical change happens when the substance changes its physical state and composition resulting from a chemical reaction. This chemical reaction may either give off or absorb energy. A change in color is a chemical change. For example, litmus paper turns to red when placed in an acid solution. Production of gas is a chemical change. For example, adding hydrochloric acid to the tiles of the bathroom gives a hissing sound with gases given off. Formation of a precipitate is also a chemical change. Change in shape is not a chemical change.

Nitrogen is used to keep food frozen during transportation.
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Gaseous nitrogen has unique chemical and physical properties that make it suitable for use in food processing. Nitrogen is inert which means it will not react with prepared food materials, which can alter their aromas or flavors. Also, gaseous nitrogen will effectively displace oxygen minimizing oxidation and the growth of microorganisms that cause foods to lose their freshness and deteriorate faster.
