During cellular respiration, cells in the human body contribute to the generation of the weak acid, h2co3. this reaction can lower the ph of the blood to dangerous levels. fortunately, this acid combines with carbonate ions to form bicarbonate ions. this causes a shift in the reaction to the or to the a. left, products b. left, reactants c. right, products d. right, reactants

they both have a y in them

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.
