(a)
Interpretation:
The reason due to which perspiration cools the body, during the heavy exercise should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Evaporation is the process of converting water (mostly) in liquid state to the gaseous state. Due to change in state of water from liquid to gas its temperature increases and energy is required for such change in state, Thusthe water molecules undergoing evaporation, decreases the temperature of the surface by absorbing the heat energy from it.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason for wet towels to dry quickly on a hot summer day as compared to a cold winter day should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Evaporation is the process of converting water (mostly) in liquid state to the gaseous state. Due to change in state of water from liquid to gas its temperature increases and energy is required for such change in state, Thus the water molecules undergoing evaporation, decreases the temperature of the surface by absorbing the heat energy from it. The process of evaporation increases on increasing the temperature.
(c)
Interpretation:
The reason for wet clothes to not dry in the plastic bag should be explained.

- Where are the chiral centers in this molecule? Also is this compound meso yes or no?arrow_forwardA mixture of C7H12O2, C9H9OCl, biphenyl and acetone was put together in a gas chromatography tube. Please decide from the GC resutls which correspond to the peak for C7,C9 and biphenyl and explain the reasoning based on GC results. Eliminate unnecessary peaks from Gas Chromatography results.arrow_forwardIs the molecule chiral, meso, or achiral? CI .CH3 H₂C CIarrow_forward
- A mixture of three compounds Phen-A, Acet-B and Rin-C was analyzed using TLC with 1:9 ethanol: hexane as the mobile phase. The TLC plate showed three spots of R, 0.1 and 0.2 and 0.3. Which of the three compounds (Phen-A; Acet-B or Rin-C) would have the highest (Blank 1), middle (Blank 2) and lowest (Blank 3) spot respectively? 0 CH: 0 CH, 0 H.C OH H.CN OH Acet-B Rin-C phen-A A A <arrow_forwardHow many chiral carbons are in the molecule?
