The three functional groups shown in the image are: ester, alkoxy and carboxyl.

<h3>What are functional groups?</h3>

Chemical properties depend on its structure. Certain properties, too, are attributable to an atomic group ordered in a particular way, apart from the whole of the molecule. Such groups of atoms that determine the chemical properties of compounds are called<em> functional groups</em>.

The functional group can be on the primary, secondary, or tertiary carbon.

Functional groups are often found on molecules of biological importance.

Functional groups are usually formed by a set of elements such as carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, attached to the hydrocarbon chain, giving the molecule characteristics. Can also include other elements such as sulfur or nitrogen.

Molecules can have more than one functional group on it, having different combinations on it that can affect properties of the molecule such as solubility, structure, or reactivity.

Carboxyl groups are usually seen in amino acids, fatty acids and other molecules since it is a fairly common functional group.

Therefore, we can confirm that the three functional groups shown in the image are: ester, alkoxy and carboxyl.

A solution at 25 degrees Celsius is 1.0 × 10–5 M H3O+. What is the concentration of OH– in this solution? 1.0 × 10–5 M OH– 1.0 ×

Triss [41]

Answer:

1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.

Explanation:

[H₃O⁺] = 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M.

<em>∴ [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺]</em> = 10⁻¹⁴/(1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M) = <em>1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.</em>

Using only the periodic table, determine the element that displays each given trend. Be sure to provide your reasoning.

RideAnS [48]

Choose the element that:

- is more reactive: oxygen or argon.

- has the larger atomic radius: francium or sodium.

- has the smaller atomic radius: scandium or selenium.

- has more ionization energy: bismuth or mercury.

- has less ionization energy: nitrogen or phosphorus.

- has more electronegativity: xenon or silver.

- has less electronegativity: titanium or hafnium.

Explanation:

Choose the element that is more reactive: oxygen or argon.

Argon have a complete electronic shell which makes him inert from chemically point of view while oxygen is able to form compounds with the majority of the elements.

Choose the element that has the larger atomic radius: francium or sodium.

As you go down in a group the atomic radius is increasing.

Choose the element that has the smaller atomic radius: scandium or selenium.

As a general trend the atomic radius of elements decrease in periods from right to left for this elements .

Choose the element that has more ionization energy: bismuth or mercury.

Mercury have a complete electronic shell (5d¹⁰) while bismuth have 3 electrons in the last shell (6p³). It is harder to extract an electron from mercury compared to bismuth.

Choose the element that has less ionization energy: nitrogen or phosphorus.

Ionization energy decrease as you go down in a group.

Choose the element that has more electronegativity: xenon or silver.

Silver have a higher electronegativity than Xenon. Xenon is an inert gas and it has a complete electronic shell which explains his inert chemical reactivity.

Choose the element that has less electronegativity: titanium or hafnium.

As you go down a grup electronegativity is decreasing.

6. What is the oxidation number for the atom indicated in the following compounds.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a. +6;

b. +5;

c. +3.

Explanation:

Start with elements with well-known oxidation states.

The oxidation state on oxygen O in compounds is mostly -2. Common exceptions include:

-1 in peroxides and
positive when oxygen bonds to fluorine.

The oxidation state on group 1 metals (Li, Na, K, etc.) in compounds is mostly +1.

The oxidation state on group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.) in compounds is mostly +2.

Barium Ba is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state on Ba in the compound BaSO₄ is expected to be +2.

The oxidation state on hydrogen H in compounds is mostly +1. The oxidation state on H might be negative when it is bonded to metals.

The oxidation state on halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.) is mostly -1. The oxidation state may vary when the halogen is bonded to oxygen or another halogen element.

Compounds are neutral. The oxidation state on all atoms in a compound shall add up to 0. Both BaSO₄ and HClO₂ are neutral.

Oxidation states:

Ba: +2;
The oxidation state on sulfur S is to be determined;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on S be x.

2 + x + 4 × (-2) = 0;

x = 6.

Hence, the oxidation state on S in BaSO₄ is +6.

Oxidation states:

H: +1;
Cl here is bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state on chlorine Cl is to be determined;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on Cl be x.

<em>Refer to the equation in BaSO₄ as an example. Try setting up the equation on your own. </em>

x = 3.

Hence, the oxidation state on Cl is +3.

Ions carry charge. Oxidation states on atoms in an ion shall add up to the charge of the ion. The superscript of an ion shows its charge. The superscript 3- in the phosphate ion shows that the ion carries a charge of -3.

Oxidation states:

The oxidation state on P is to be found;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on P be x.

x + 4 × (-2) = -3;

x = 5.

Hence, the oxidation state on P is +5.

What is the minimum number of moles of potassium permanganate that would be required to completely oxidize 1.0 moles of benzalde

makvit [3.9K]

Mole ratio :

<span>5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>CHO + 2 KMnO</span>₄<span> + 6 H</span>⁺ <span>= 5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>COOH + 2 Mn</span>²⁺<span> + 3 H</span>₂<span>O + 2 K</span>⁺

5 moles C₆H₆CHO ------------------ 2 moles KMnO₄
1.0 moles C₆H₆CHO ---------------- ( moles of KMnO₄ )

moles of KMnO₄ = 1.0 x 2 / 5

moles of KMnO₄ = 2 / 5

= 0.40 moles of KMnO4

hope this helps!
