An expression is show below. - 1 2/3 - x Assume that this expression is plotted on a number line starting at - 1 2/3
What could the value of x be in order to move right more than 3 units on the number line from the starting point? Select all t
hat apply.

substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:

- the single bond remains single. a is wrong.

- the bond with hydrogen is as strong as with a halogen. c is wrong

- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. we do not know that so d is wrong.

- carbon will always have four valence electrons. e is wrong.

by elimination, the correct answer is b. the boiling point of the new compound increases.
