Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the addition of HCN in water with NaOH to cyclopentanone to give the corresponding cyanohydrin in the fewest steps. Draw the arrows that lead to the resonance structures with full octets around each atom other than hydrogen. Draw all electrons and charges if necessary on all structures; do not show any inorganic side products of counterions. Reagents needed for each step are provided in the boxes.

what is the question?

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.

air

in a tire you fill a tire with air

then a couple days later you check the air pressure in the tire

hope this mark me brainliest
