Answer:
- <u>C₂H₄</u> (option number 4)
Explanation:
A hydrocarbon with a <em>double bond</em> in its carbon skeleton is an alkene and has the general form:
-
.
This is, the number of hydrogen atoms is twice the number of carbon atoms.
On the other hand, alkanes have only single bonds, and the compounds with a triple bond in its carbon skeleton are alkynes.
Review each choice:
1) <u>C₃H₈:</u>
- In this case, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2×3 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8, which is corresponds to an alkane, not an alkene.
2)<u> C₂H₆</u>
- For this, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2 × 2 + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6. Again an alkane, not alkene.
3) <u>CH₄</u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 1 × 2 + 2 = 4 ⇒ an alkane
4) <u>C₂H₄ </u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 = 4. This is precisely the relation for an alkene, so this is the hydrocarbon that has a double bond in its carbon skeleton.
- The chemical formula may be writen as CH₂ = CH₂, to show the double bond.
So, this is the correct answer.
5) <u>C₂H₂</u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2. This relation of carbon and hydrogen atoms corresponds to a compound with triple bond, i.e an alkyne: CH≡CH.
Answer:
The answer to your question is: b
Explanation:
a. Magnesium shares an electron somewhat unevenly from its 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a mildly polar covalent bond. This option is wrong because Mg does not share electrons it loses electrons.
b. Magnesium loses and electron from the 3s and gives it up to the 3p of chlorine producing an ionic bond. This option is correct, Mg loses one electron and Cl receives it, the bond formed between Mg and Cl is ionic.
c. Magnesium does not react chemically with chlorine because magnesium gives up electrons, but chlorine only shares electrons. This answer is wrong, Mg and Cl react and produce MgCl₂.
d. Magnesium shares an electron from the 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a covalent bond. Mg does not share electrons and is not able to produce covalent bonds.
Hi,
mL are smaller than liters. So milk should be liters, right? Yeah it should. If yiu put milk on a scale, it would go down bc it is so heavy. If it was not as heavy, it would be a different story here. Think of it that way.
Answer:
2-Methylpentane is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C6H14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the second carbon atom in a pentane chain.
Answer: The fourth material that is added to the blast furnace is HOT AIR which provides OXYGEN for used for combustion of carbon (Coke).
Explanation:
Iron is the second most abundant metal found in the earth's crust after aluminium. It is not found in the free metallic state but are extracted from rocks which are rich in iron that contains other materials. These are known are iron ores and the most common iron ores are haematite ( Fe2O3).
Iron can be extracted from its ore with the used of blast furnace. The materials used for extraction of iron includes:
--> Coke
--> haematite( iron ore)
--> limestone and
--> Hot air.
The iron ore is first roasted in air so that iron(III)oxide is produced. The iron(III)oxide is then mixed with coke and limestone and heated to a very high temperature. Hot air is introduced into it from the bottom of the furnace. The coke is oxidizes the the oxygen in the hot air blast to liberate carbondioxide.
