Explanation:
For the given compound: (s)-3-iodo-2-methylnonane, only third carbon- atom (marked with red dot) is the chiral atom (as it is attached to 4 different substituents), so the configuration will be assigned to this C-atom only.
In assigning the configuration of this compound, the priorities are assigned based on their atomic masses. The lowest priority group ( that is Hydrogen) should lie on the vertical line. But here, it is lying on the horizontal line, so the configuration will be reversed.
The configuration coming out when H is on the horizontal line is R, but the actual configuration will be S.
The structure of the given organic compound is shown in the image attached.
Answer:
Electrostatic Van de Waals forces act between molecules to form weak bonds. The types of Van der Waals forces, strongest to weakest, are dipole-dipole forces, dipole-induced dipole forces and the London dispersion forces. The hydrogen bond is based on a type of dipole-dipole force that is especially powerful. These forces help determine the physical characteristics of materials.
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>For a:</u> The wavelength of light is 
<u>For b:</u> The light is getting absorbed
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the wavelength of light, we use Rydberg's Equation:

Where,
= Wavelength of radiation
= Rydberg's Constant = 
= Higher energy level = 7
= Lower energy level = 3
Putting the values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the wavelength of light is 
There are two ways in which electrons can transition between energy levels:
- <u>Absorption spectra:</u> This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from lower energy level to higher energy level. In this process, energy is absorbed.
- <u>Emission spectra:</u> This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from higher energy level to lower energy level. In this process, energy is released in the form of photons.
As, the electron jumps from lower energy level to higher energy level. The wavelength is getting absorbed.
