At its discovery, benzene was recognized to be a unique unsaturated hydrocarbon because it either failed to react, by substitution with common reagents or reacted by addition that led to reactions with alkenes.

<h3>What are unsaturated hydrocarbons?</h3>

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are the hydrocarbons which have at least on double or triple carbon to carbon bond in its molecules.

All other hydrocarbons are unsaturated except for the alkanes and the cyclic alkanes.

Benzene is an aromatic compound which has a special six-carbon ring with are resonance structure reflecting the presence of three carbon-carbon bonds in its molecules.

The common reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons are substitution and addition reactions.

However, benzene on its discovery did not undergo any of these reactions.

In conclusion, benzene showed a difference when compared with the common unsaturated hydrocarbons as it did not undergo either substitution or addition reactions.

hi im breanna

Answer:

The mole is simply a very large number that is used by chemists as a unit of measurement.

Explanation:

The mole is simply a very large number,

, that has a special property. If I have  

6.022

hydrogen atoms, I have a mass of 1 gram of hydrogen atoms . If I have

molecules, I have a mass of 2 gram of hydrogen molecules. If I have

C

atoms, I have (approximately!) 12 grams.

The mole is thus the link between the micro world of atoms and molecules, and the macro world of grams and litres, the which we can easily measure by mass or volume. The masses for a mole of each element are given on the periodic table as the atomic weight. So, if have 12 g of  

C

, I know, fairly precisely, how many atoms of carbon I have. Given this quantity, I know how many molecules of  

O

are required to react with the  

C

, which I could measure by mass or by volume.

Anything with mass creates gravity, but the amount of gravity is proportional to the amount of mass.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of gravity is directly proportional to the amount of mass of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects. Gravity is a force that increases the velocity of falling objects - they accelerate.
