Question

PLEASE EXPLAIN

Which of the following is not true? The oxygens in this triglyceride can hydrogen bond with water, but this is not sufficient make the molecule miscible with water Methyl iodide is a carcinogen, because it can undergo an S_N 2 reaction with DNA. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are toxic because they undergo E2 reactions in the body. One of the products of combustion of fossil fuels is CO_2. This is a greenhouse gas because it absorbs Infrared (IR) radiation that reduces radiational cooling of the earth. C_6H_10 + O_2(excess) rightarrow 8 CO_2 + 9 H_2 O Which structure is not a valid resonance structure of the other three structures?

Explanation / Answer

a) statement is true as the London dispersion forces are the dominant forces in the given molecule instead of H-bonding forces.

b) The statement is true as nitrogen acts as a nucleophile in the given reaction.

c) The statement is false as it the given compound can't undergo the elimination reactions.

d) CO2 holds the radiation reflected from the earth. Hence the given statement is false.
