Answer:
The use of phenol (carbolic acid) as a wound disinfectant was first practiced by Lister. The correct option is E
Explanation:
Phenol( carbolic acid) is an aromatic organic compound. It has the following properties:
- it's soluble in water
- it's a weak acid and
- highly reactive toward electrophilic aromatic substitution
In Medical field, phenol was first used as an antiseptic by Joseph Lister.Joseph Lister was a student at University College London under Robert Liston, later rising to the rank of Surgeon at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. He believed that patients who passed through surgery, died due to infections caused by microorganisms.He theorized that if germs could be killed or prevented, no infection would occur. Lister reasoned that a chemical could be used to destroy the micro-organisms that cause infection. He made use of the carbolic acid by soaking a clean cloth in them, and placing it over the surgical wounds of patients.

The best answer for the question above would be the chloroflourocarbons or the CFCs. These chloroflourocarbons or CFCs are the ones responsible for the depletion of the ozone - which leads to leaving a hole in its layer. These gases eat out the ozone layer and allows harmful UV rays of the sun to come in the Earth.
Answer:
A) Ca(s) + C(s) + 3/2 O₂(g) → CaCO₃(s)
Explanation:
Standard enthalpy of formation of a chemical is defined as the change in enthalpy durin the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements in their standard states.
The consituent elements of calcium carbonate, CaCO₃, in their standard states (States you will find this pure elements in nature), are:
Ca(s), C(s) and O₂(g)
That means, the equation that represents standard enthalpy of CaCO₃ is:
<h3>A) Ca(s) + C(s) + 3/2 O₂(g) → CaCO₃(s)</h3><h3 />
<em>Is the equation that has ΔH° = -1207kJ/mol</em>
