Oxidation numbers play an important role in the systematic nomenclature of chemical compounds. By definition, the oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound was composed of ions. The oxidation number of simple ions is equal to the charge on the ion. The oxidation number of sodium in the Na+<span> ion is +1.</span>
The reaction of 2 methylbutane with chlorine yield 5 monochloro derivative. Methylbutane has four carbon atoms which react with chlorine. The carbon with antibonding will be chiral and it will react with chlorine. there will be four difference group around chiral carbon hence it will have stereoisomers.
Answer:
use the equation Q = mc ΔT
Q = heat energy transferred (joules)
m =mass of the liquid being heated (kilograms)
c = specific heat capacity of the liquid (joule per kilogram Celsius), ΔT = change in temperature (Celsius).
Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
Alkanes with higher molecular mass has higher boiling point.
Thisis because when the molar mass of the alkanes increases the the surface area increases with which van der Waals forces between the molecules of alkane also increase which increases the association of the molecules of with each other which results in increase in boiling point is observed.
The increasing order of the molar mass of the given alkanes;

So out of ethane, pentane and heptane . Heptane has highest molecular mass with higher boiling point value. Where as ethane have the lowest value of boiling point.
