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.

What is ideal gas constant ?

The ideal gas constant is calculated to be 8.314J/K⋅ mol when the pressure is in kPa.
The ideal gas law is a single equation which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of an ideal gas.
The combined gas law relates pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas.

We simple use this formula-

The basic formula is PV = nRT where. P = Pressure in atmospheres (atm) V = Volume in Liters (L) n = of moles (mol) R = the Ideal Gas Law Constant.

68F = 298.15K

V = nRT/P = 0.2 * 0.08206 * 298.15K / (745/760) = 4.992Liters

n = PV/RT = 1.1atm*4.992L/(0.08206Latm/molK * 306K)

n = 0.219 moles

Therefore, 0.219 moles moles are present in the flask when the pressure is 1.10 atm and the temperature is 33˚c.

Use the periodic table to select which type of bond is present and which of the listed properties is most likely for each substa

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

A = Metallic Bond

B = Strong bonding, strong conductor, high melting and boiling points

Explanation:

Since the bond is between two metals (located in groups 11 and 12), they would experience metallic bonding. Metallically bonded molecules have high melting and boiling points due to the strength of the metallic bond. They also experience strong electrical current due to the there delocalized electrons.

What parts of an atom can change during a nuclear reaction that cannot change during a chemical reaction? The number of neutrons

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The number of protons and neutrons.

Explanation:

Neutrons and Protons can't be removed from nucleus from chemical reactions because they are held together super strong and tight. However, nuclear reactions are strong enough to separate them.

hope this helps :)

How does plastic impact the environment as a result of human activities

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

As a result of human activities, plastic impacts the envionment in negative way that leads to serious environmental danger.

Explanation:

When we don't throw away plastic materials correctly, it causes littering. Well, this can also lead to piles of that, meaning that it is spreading toxins. Littering may also lead to blockages in flowing streams, lakes, river, ground water, big bodies of water, and small bodies of water. This also can contribute to global warming because plastic are made from chemicals that come from the production of fuels like oil, gas, coal and possible more.
