Some hydrocarbons are regarded as unsaturated because they contain double or triple bonds between adjacent carbon atoms.

<h3>What are hydrocarbons?</h3>

Hydrocarbons are any organic compounds that contain hydrogen and carbon in its structure.

Hydrocarbons can be grouped into the following based on whether they contain single or double bonds:

  1. Saturated hydrocarbons - contain only single bonds e.g. alkanes
  2. Unsaturated hydrocarbons - contain double and triple bonds e.g. alkenes

Therefore, it can be said that some hydrocarbons are regarded as unsaturated because they contain double or triple bonds between adjacent carbon atoms.

Which atomic model states that it is impossible to know the exact location of electrons around the nucleus?
Alja [10]
<span>The correct answer is electron-cloud model. This model states that electrons don't go around in an eliptical way but rather completely erratically and uncontrolably and this is why it can't be known where they are or how they will behave. They form sort of like a cloud of many electrons that move erratically so you have to check it to see where it is.</span>

The breaking buffer that we use this week contains 10mM Tris, pH 8.0, 150mM NaCl. The elution buffer is breaking buffer that als
olasank [31]

Answer:

A breakdown of the breaking buffer was first listed with its respective component and their corresponding value; then a table was made for the stock concentrations in which the volume that is being added was determined by using the formula M_1*V_1 = M_2*V_2. It was the addition of these volumes altogether that make up the 0.25 L (i.e 250 mL)  with water

Explanation:

Given data includes:

Tris= 10mM

pH = 8.0

NaCl = 150 mM

Imidazole = 300 mM

In order to make 0.25 L solution buffer ; i.e (250 mL); we have the following component.

Stock Concentration             Volume to be             Final Concentration

                                               added            

1 M Tris                                     2.5 mL                         10 mM

5 M NaCl                                  7.5 mL                        150 mM

1 M Imidazole                           75 mL                         300 mM    

M_1*V_1 = M_2*V_2. is the formula that is used to determine the corresponding volume that is added for each stock concentration

The stock concentration of Tris ( 1 M ) is as follows:

M_1*V_1 = M_2*V_2.

1*V_1= 0.01 M *250mL\\V_1 = 2.5mL

The stock concentration of NaCl (5 M ) is as follows:

M_1*V_1 = M_2*V_2.

1*V_1= 0.15 M *250mL\\V_1 = 7.5mL

The stock concentration of Imidazole (1 M ) is as follows:

M_1*V_1 = M_2*V_2.

1*V_1= 0.03 M *250mL\\V_1 = 75mL

Hence, it is the addition of all the volumes altogether that make up 0.25L (i.e 250 mL) with water.

How many grams of carbon dioxide will form if 5.5 g of C3H8 burns in 15 g of O2?
mr Goodwill [35]
C3H8+3O2--->3CO2+8H
Therefore for every 1:3 there are 3 Carbon dioxides that form. That means find the limiting reactant from the two reactants.
5.5g(1mole C3H8/44.03g of C3H8)=0.1249 moled of C3H8 and if for every one C3H8 we can form three CO2. We can assume 0.3747 miles of CO2 will be produced.
15g of O2(1 mole O2/32g of O2)=0.4685moles O2 and if for every three O2 we can produce three CO2 we may assume a 1:1 ratio.
This means C3H8 will be your limiting reactant. Therefore 0.3747 moles of CO2 will be produced.
0.3747 moles of CO2(48.01 g of CO2/1 mole of CO2)= 17.99 grams of CO2
