Please help, Which molecule is shown below

Option B. 3–methylheptane.

Explanation:

To obtain the name of the compound given in the question above, we must

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

3. Identify the substituent groups attached.

4. Locate the position of the substituent group attached by giving it the lowest possible count.

5. Combine the above to obtain the name.

Now let us name the compound given in the question above.

1. The compound is an alkane since it contains only single bond.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain is 7. Hence the parent name I the compound is heptane.

3. The substituent group attached is

—CH3 i.e methyl.

4. The substituent group attached is at carbon 3.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–methylheptane.

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.

if it's not useful, feel free to report for mistake in answer.
