Interpretation:
Among the given options, the change that increases the rate of the process needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The solubility of sugar in water depends on the temperature of water.
Increase in temperature of water increases the solubility of sugar in it.
Lighting/combustion is a chemical change and increase in surface area of the reactant increases the rate of this chemical change.
Stains can be removed by using detergent.
When iron is kept open, it reacts with atmospheric oxygen and moisture and form iron oxide called rust.

Answer to Problem 16STP
Option (B) crush charcoal into smaller pieces before lighting.
Explanation of Solution
Reason for correct option:
This increases the surface area of the solid reactant and small pieces catch fire faster than the bigger ones.
Hence, this change speeds up the process.
Reasons for incorrect options:
The solubility of sugar in water depends on the temperature of water.
Increase in temperature of water increases the solubility of sugar in it.
But in option (A) cold water is used which slows down the process.
Stains can be removed by using detergent.
In option (C) the amount of detergent is decreased.
If the amount of detergent is decreased, stain removal becomes slow.
When iron is kept open, it reacts with atmospheric oxygen and moisture and form iron oxide called rust.
In option (D), iron nail is kept closed which does not allow the iron nail to react with atmosphere.
Hence, the rusting

You should have one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR. 2) For MS, the differing masses of molecular ions are a popular starting point. Including a unique fragmentation is important, too. 3) For HNMR, CNMR and IR state the peaks that are different and what makes them different (usually the presence or absence of certain groups). See if you can find two differences (in each set of IR, HNMR and CNMR spectra) due to the presence or absence of a functional group. Include peak locations. Alternatively, you can state a shift of a peak due to a change near a given functional group. Including peak locations for shifted peaks, as well as what these peaks are due to. Ideally, your focus should be on not just identifying the differences but explaining them in terms of functional group changes.arrow_forward
