For calculations, consider 100 grams of the compound:
ω(Cl) = 85.5% ÷ 100%.
ω(Cl) = 0.855; signifying the mass percentage of chlorine in the compound.
m(Cl) = 0.855 · 100 g.
m(Cl) = 85.5 g; this represents the mass of chlorine.
m(C) = 100 g - 85.5 g.
m(C) = 14.5 g; indicating the mass of carbon.
n(Cl) = m(Cl) ÷ M(Cl).
n(Cl) = 85.5 g ÷ 35.45 g/mol.
n(Cl) = 2.41 mol; this is the quantity of chlorine.
n(C) = 14.5 g ÷ 12 g/mol.
n(C) = 1.21 mol; this is the quantity of carbon.
n(Cl): n(C) = 2.41 mol: 1.21 mol = 2: 1.
The compound in question is identified as dichlorocarbene CCl₂.

The appropriate answer is option E. Gibbs free energy can be expressed using the equation: ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH denotes the change in enthalpy of the reaction, T is the reaction temperature, and ΔS signifies entropy change. For our calculations, we have ΔH = -720.5 kJ/mol which converts to -720500 J/mol (given that 1 kJ = 1000 J), ΔS = -263.7 J/K, and T = 141.0°C, which equals 414.15 K. Consequently, the Gibbs free energy for the specified reaction at 141.0°C is calculated as -611.3 kJ/mol.
A secondary alkyl halide would be characterized by having a carbon atom connected to two other carbon atoms, with bromine attached to that carbon.
Therefore, bromo-hexane qualifies as a 2-degree or secondary alkyl halide
