(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical formula for CFC-12 has to be determined.

Concept-introduction:

Prediction of chemical formula for CFC:

Given: CFC-11

The code number is added by 90 to get a three digit number.

90+11=101

The first digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Carbon atoms,

The second digit ‘0’ indicates the number of Hydrogen atoms,

The third digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Fluorine atoms.

Then the remaining bonds are assumed to be chlorine.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The code for the chemical formula (CCl4) has to be determined.

Concept-introduction:

Prediction of chemical formula for CFC:

Given: CFC-11

The code number is added by 90 to get a three digit number.

90+11=101

The first digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Carbon atoms,

The second digit ‘0’ indicates the number of Hydrogen atoms,

The third digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Fluorine atoms.

Then the remaining bonds are assumed to be chlorine.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using ‘90’ method work HCFC-22 has to be explained.

Concept-introduction:

Concept-introduction:

Prediction of chemical formula for CFC:

Given: CFC-11

The code number is added by 90 to get a three digit number.

90+11=101

The first digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Carbon atoms,

The second digit ‘0’ indicates the number of Hydrogen atoms,

The third digit ‘1’ indicates the number of Fluorine atoms.

Then the remaining bonds are assumed to be chlorine.
