yes

Explanation:

it becomes crystin

Answer 2

Answer:

My answer is :

Explanation:

The hydrolysis of CH₃Cl takes place in presence of I⁻  (NaI) because of of high polarizability and low solvation energy of I⁻ , it behaves as a better nucleophile than other solvents . Because of weak basicity and low bond energy of C-I bond , I⁻ behaves as an effective catalyst in substitution reaction .
