The carbon = carbon double bonds in unsaturated fatty acids are restricting the movement of the molecule branches. They are more "kinked" up and do not pack as tightly. whereas, saturated fatty acids have more freedom of movement and tend to pack together better. Therefore, in the case of unsaturated fatty acids they can not compact tightly together and there are less van der Waals interactions between the molecules, and so the melting point is reduced.
Yes u can but u have to divide mass by volum
So if you are trying to find the coffee with the highest concentration of sugar, the cup that has the highest concentration of sugar is the cup that Sarah made on Thursday.
Since there were sugar molecules remaining at the bottom of her coffee cup, that means that the coffee solution was completely saturated with sugar - no more sugar was able to dissolve in the coffee.
Answer:
When a Magnesium Ribbon is burnt, a powdery substance called magnesium oxide is formed.
Explanation:
There has obviously been a chemical change because several chemical properties of the magnesium have been modified: the color, the texture and the mass.
The increase in mass is due to the fact that oxygen from the air has combined with the magnesium to make magnesium oxide, MgO.
The chemical equation, Mg + O2 MgO shows this reaction but it needs to be balanced to make 2Mg + O2 2MgO.
Using stoichiometry, we can convert this eqation into an equation with moles:
2 mol Mg + 1 mol O2 2 mol MgO.
Next, we convert to grams using atomic masses obtained from the periodic table:
48g Mg + 32g O2 80g MgO
Lastly, we determine the same thing in the proportions we used. In other words, we used only 0.15g of Mg (not 48g) so everything needs to be divided by 320. So 80 / 320 = 0.25 g. If we burn 0.15 g of Mg, we obtain 0.25 g of MgO.
Hope this helps!!!
This is my first answer.
