The correct answer is:  [C]:  "polar" .
_____________________________________________________  
   " Water " ; which is:  " H₂O " ; 
_____________________________________________________
is a:
_____________________________________________________

  — polar;  → {eliminate:  "Choice  [A]:  "non-polar"} ;

                  → {and consider:  "Choice: [C]:  "polar" } ; 

  — covalent; → {not "ionic";  eliminate:  "Choice:  [B]:  "ionic"} ;

  — uncharged;  → {neutral compound; not "charged" —but "balanced"} ; 
 
                           →  {Note:   " H ⁺ ,  O ²⁻  ;   →   " H₂O " } ;

                           →  The "charges" balance/ cancel out. 

                           →  {eliminate:  "Choice:  [D]:  "charged" .}.

Your lab partner named this compound 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane, but that is not correct.
loris [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane

<u>Explanation:</u>

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

  • Select the longest possible carbon chain.
  • For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
  • A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
  • If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

We are given:

An alkane having chemical name as 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane. This will not be the correct name of the alkane because the longest possible carbon chain has 7 Carbon atoms, not 6 carbon atoms

The image of the given alkane is shown in the image below.

Hence, the correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane

Which description accurately represents a water molecule
inna [77]

Answer:

The water molecule is comprised of two hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen atom,  oxygen atom has 8 electrons, and each H has 1 electron. The H atoms bond to the oxygen by sharing a pair of electrons in what is called a covalent bond. In each pair of shared electrons, one electron is contributed by the H (black) and one from the oxygen (red).

Develop a hypothesis to explain why bubbles exhaled by scuba divers underwater expand as they float up to the surface of the oce
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:The bubbles exhaled by a scuba diver grow as they approach the surface of the ocean. The pressure exerted by the weight of the water decreases with depth, so the volume of the bubbles increases as they rise.
