1. What food item will provide 1 mole of sodium in the least mass? What is that mass? 2. What food item will provide a minimum of 1 mole of both sodium and potassium with the least mass? What is that mass?

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.
