Explanation of Solution
Given chemical formula:
The formula consists of One Carbon atom which the first digit of chemical formula is ‘1’; and has no hydrogen and fluorine atoms become ‘0’ for the second and third digit.
Therefore, the chemical formula of
By subtracting the value with 90 gives,
Therefore, the chemical formula is

(d)
Interpretation:
Whether Halon-1301 can be explained using ‘90’ method work or not has to be interpreted.

Then the remaining bonds are assumed to be chlorine.
(d)
Explanation of Solution
The ‘90’ method work can be done and useful only for Fluorine and Chlorine Halogen. There are no guidelines for handling bromine.
Hence, this method does not work for Halon-1301

- Marie Curie was born in Poland but studied and carried out her research in Paris. In 1903, she shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with H. Becquerel and her husband Pierre for their discovery of radioactivity. (In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of two new chemical elements, radium and polonium, the latter named for her homeland, Poland.) They and others observed that a radioactive substance could emit three types of radiation: alpha (), beta (), and gamma (). If the radiation from a radioactive source is passed between electrically charged plates, some particles are attached to the positive plate, some to the negative plate, and others feel no attraction. Which particles are positively charged, which are negatively charged, and which have no charge? Of the two charged particles, which has the most mass? Radioactivity. Alpha (), beta I(), and gamma () rays from a radioactive element are separated by passing them between electrically charged plates.arrow_forwardWhat is Donnan's theory?
