Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (A), (C) and (D) Only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A): X-rays have very short wavelengths, typically ranging from \(10^{-8}\) to \(10^{-13}\) meters. (C): Being ionizing radiation, X-rays carry enough energy to displace electrons from atoms, which can damage living cells and DNA. (D): This describes the standard operation of an…

The carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones is highly polar. The positively charged carbon is readily attacked by electron-rich nucleophile and the negatively charged oxygen atom is attacked by an electro-deficient electrophile. Aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition reactions in the presence of acid or a base. The mechanism involves attack of a nucleophile on the electron deficient carbonyl carbon to form a tetrahedral intermediate. A new bond is formed between the carbon and oxygen. Protonation of the anion furnished by the reaction medium yields neutral addition product. The addition product is same whether the reaction is catalyzed by acid or a base. For example in the presence of base aldehydes and ketones react with hydrogen cyanide to form cyanohydrin.
