Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Mention the limitations in testing compounds for carcinogenicity by using laboratory animals.

Concept Introduction:

A substance that promotes carcinogenesis or cancer formation is known as carcinogen. This is caused by damaging the genome or disrupting the cell metabolism. Some of the radioactive substances are carcinogen, the carcinogenic activity of such radioactivesubstances are caused by radiation they emit such as gamma rays and alpha particles. Non-radioactive carcinogens are certain dioxins and smoke of tobacco. They are not immediately toxic to body.

Q: Draw the molecular orbital energy level diagram for the following molecules. 1- The SF4 molecule is seesaw molecular geometry and has C2v point group. 2- The Mn(CO)s molecule with C4v point group is square pyramidal.
Please correct answer and don't use hand rating
when a 0.150 g sample of the compound was burned, it produced 0.138 g CO2 & 0.0566 g H2O. All the nitrogen in a different 0.200 g sample of the compound was converted to NH3, which was found to weigh 0.0238 g. Finally, the chlorine in a 0.125 g sample of the compound was converted to Cl- and by reacting it with AgNO3, all of the chlorine was recovered as the solid AgCl. The AgCl, when dried was found to weigh 0.251 g. What is the empirical formula
