Anode

A helpful acronym to assist you in answering such questions : An Ox 
                                                                                                   Red Cat
basically means Anode, Oxidation (An Ox) 
                           Reduction, Cathode (Red Cat)

Answer : The correct option is, (a) anode

Explanation :

As we know that there are two types of cell which are, electrolytic cell and electrochemical cell or galvanic cell.

Electrolytic cell : It is defined as the cell in which the chemical reaction occurs by passing of the current from external source.

In the electrolytic cell, the oxidation occurs at anode which is a positive electrode and reduction occurs at cathode which is a negative electrode.

For example : On passing electricity in the molten NaCl, Na and chlorine gas are obtained at cathode and anode respectively.

Electrochemical cell : It is defined as the cell in which the chemical reaction occurs with the production of electric potential difference between the two electrodes.

In this cell, the oxidation occurs at anode which is a negative electrode and reduction occurs at cathode which is a positive electrode.

Hence, in an electrolytic cell, the oxidation occur at an anode.

What are the names of the following three compounds (see attached)
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1. 4-ethyl-1-heptene

2. 6-ethyl-2-octene

3. 1-butyne

Explanation:

The compounds are named according to IUPAC rules.

Compound 1:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 7 carbon atoms, so taken the name hept.
  • The double bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix ene to hept "1-heptene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 4.
  • So the name is 4-ethyl-1-heptene.

Compound 2:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 8 carbon atoms, so taken the name oct.
  • The double bond between C2 and C3, so take no. 2 and add the suffix ene to oct "2-octene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 6.
  • So the name is 6-ethyl-2-octene.

Compound 3:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain), there is no substituents.
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (Triple bond here take the lowest number).
  • The longest chain contains 4 carbon atoms, so taken the name but.
  • The triple bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix yne to but "1-butyne".
  • So the name is 1-butyne.

Why do adults have stem cells
Eva8 [605]

Adults have stem cells because they are needed to repair certain tissues in the body such as in the muscles, bone marrow, skin, teeth, heart, and liver, to name a few. Thus, they can develop into many different cell types and function to replace older and damaged tissues.
