Which molecule is a stereoisomer of trans-2-butene?

Elina [12.6K]2 years ago

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula but different 3-d arrangement of atoms. Three types exist but we are focusing on geometrical cis-trans isomerism here. In a single bond, the molecules can rotate around fixed points and there is no fixed 3-d geometry. In butene and other double-bond-containing molecules (the double bond is signified through the "-ene" suffix and the "-2-" indicates that the double bond begins on the second carbon in the chain), rotational motion is stopped by the double bond. This causes two different types of molecules to occur in nature: cis-2-butene, in which the carbon atom in the chain is on the same side at both ends of the double bond, and trans-2-butene, in which the carbon atom is on opposite sides (like a beach chair if the seat was a double bond). So the stereoisomer of trans-2-butene is cis-2-butene, which is Option D.

Explain the role light plays on the rate<br> of photosynthesis.
Luda [366]

Answer:

The process of photosynthesis occurs when green plants use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) into carbohydrates. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, a photosynthetic pigment of the plant, while air containing carbon dioxide and oxygen enters the plant through the leaf stomata.

Two gas samples have the same number of molecules, the same volume, and the same pressure. Which of the following could be true?
bulgar [2K]
Lets name one gas sample as A and other gas sample as B.
we can apply ideal gas law equation for both samples
PV = nRT
P - Pressure of A = Pressure of B
V - volume of A = volume of B
n  - number of molecules of both A and B being equal is equivalent to number of moles of A = number of moles of B
R - universal gas constant
Tᵃ - temperature of A
Tᵇ - temperature of B
for gas A
PV = nRTᵃ  --1)
for gas B
PV = nRTᵇ  ---2)
when we divide both equations 
1 = Tᵃ  / Tᵇ
Tᵃ = Tᵇ
both temperatures are equal 
temperature in Celsius + 273 = temperature in Kelvin
therefore 0 °C = 273 K 
the correct answer is 
A)
<span>The first gas sample has a temperature of 273 K, and the second gas sample has a temperature of 0 </span>°<span>C</span>
