the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.

<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>

It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.

Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.

Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.

Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'

The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.

According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the pressure of the system shown below will shift equilibrium to the left (tow
Lina20 [59]
Le Chatelier's principle states that when a change is brought to a system in equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift in a manner to reverse that change.

If the pressure is increased, the system will try to reduce the pressure. The only way it can do this is by producing less gas. Therefore, shifting the equilibrium to the left. Thus, the statement is true.

8. Which of the following have bacteria in their root nodules that fix nitrogen?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Leguminous plants like pulses etc. have root nodules comprising of rhizobacterium which live in a symbiotic relationship with the roots of the plant and in turn fix the nitrogen in the soil in the roots of the leguminous plants.

Hence, option A is correct

When an electron passes through the magnetic field of a horseshoe magnet, the electron's?
blsea [12.9K]

When an electron passes through the magnetic field of a horseshoe magnet, the electron's direction is changed.

Path of an electron in a magnetic field

The force (F) on wire of length L carrying a current I in a magnetic field of strength B is given by the equation:

F = BIL

But Q = It and since Q = e for an electron and v = L/t you can show that :

Magnetic force on an electron = BIL = B[e/t][vt] = Bev where v is the electron velocity

In a magnetic field the force is always at right angles to the motion of the electron (Fleming's left hand rule) and so the resulting path of the electron is circular.

Therefore :

Magnetic force = Bev = mv2/r = centripetal force

v = [Ber]/m

and so you can see from these equations that as the electron slows down the radius of its orbit decreases.

If the electron enters the field at an angle to the field direction the resulting path of the electron (or indeed any charged particle) will be helical. Such motion occurs above the poles of the Earth where charges particles from the Sun spiral through the Earth's field to produce the aurorae.
