Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Newman Projection

The given diagram is a Newman projection, which is a way to visualize the conformation of a molecule from a specific angle. The circle represents the front carbon atom, and the lines extending from it represent the bonds to the substituents. The lines extending from the back of the circle represent the bonds to the substituents on the back carbon atom.

Step 2: Assign Substituents to the Front Carbon

In a Newman projection, the front carbon is represented by the circle. We need to assign the substituents "Me" (methyl), "Br" (bromine), and "Cl" (chlorine) to the positions around the circle. Typically, the substituents are placed in a staggered or eclipsed conformation.

Step 3: Assign Substituents to the Back Carbon

The back carbon is represented by the lines extending from behind the circle. We need to assign the remaining substituents to these positions.

Final Answer

  1. Me
  2. Br
  3. Cl
  4. H
  5. H
  6. H

Note: The exact positions of the substituents depend on the specific conformation (staggered or eclipsed) and the given problem's context. The above assignment assumes a staggered conformation with hydrogen atoms filling the remaining positions.

Determine whether the study depicts an observational study or an experiment. Fifty patients with brain cancer are divided into two groups. One group receives an experimental drug to fight cancer, the other a placebo. After two years, the spread of the cancer is measured. Does the description correspond to an observational study or an experiment? A. The study is an experiment because the researchers control one variable to determine the effect on the response variable. B. The study is an observational study because the study examines individuals in a sample, but does not try to influence the response variable. C. The study is an experiment because the study examines individuals in a sample, but does not try to influence the variable of interest. D. The study is an observational study because the researchers control one variable to determine the effect on the response variable.
