Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Acetone containing only 1H nuclei would show one singlet in the 1H NMR. Upon deuteration, all of the hydrogen atoms will no longer exist in chemically equivalent environments and splitting of the signal may occur. If the deuteration goes to completion, CD3COCD3, the 1H NMR signal will be lost because 2H (D) is a nonmagnetic nucleus possessing an even number of nucleons.

Answer to Question 3

d

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
