Answer:

1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane

Note: there is a mistake in formula, the correct formula is (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O-C(CH₃)₃ not (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O(CH₃)₃, because oxygen is a divalent compound.

Explanation:

<em>Structural formula is attached</em>

IUPAC naming rules

1. start numbering the chain from the functional group. In this compound we start from oxygen side.

2. Here we can see that at position 1 there is an oxy group along with a tertiary carbon having three methyl groups. So we write it as 1-tert-butoxy. Which means that there is a methoxy group at position 1 along with a tertiary carbon.

3. At position 2 we can see that there is a methyl group attached to the main chain, so we write it as 2-methyl.

4. Now we count the total number of carbons in the main chain. As we can see that there are 3 carbons in the remaining or parent chain, so we write it as propane

5. So the IUPAC name of the compound will be 1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane

which types of intermolecular forces are most likely to dominate between large molecules containing long chains of carbon atoms

Serga [27]

Van der waals force

Explanation:

The intermoleclular forces are attraction between molecules. Interatomic forces are attraction between atoms in a compound.

In most hydrocarbons the weak Van der waals attraction are known.

These forces are weak attraction joining non-polar and polar molecules together.
These forces can also be found in layers of graphite.
They are of two types;

London dispersion forces are attraction that exists between non-polar molecules and the noble gas.

Dipole - Dipole attractions are forces of attraction existing in polar molecules.

In hydrocarbons, we have non-polar molecules and intermolecular attraction is london dispersion forces.

Baking soda (NaHCO3) and vinegar (HC2H3O2) react to form sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide. If 42.00 g of baking soda re

Setler [38]

Answer:

0.5 mole of CO₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 42 g of baking soda (NaHCO₃). This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of NaHCO₃ = 42 g

Molar mass of NaHCO₃ = 23 + 1 + 12 + (16×3)

= 23 + 1 + 12 + 48

= 84 g/mol

Mole of NaHCO₃ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of NaHCO₃ = 42/84

Mole of NaHCO₃ = 0.5 mole

Next, balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

NaHCO₃ + HC₂H₃O₂ → NaC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O + CO₂

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ reacted to produce 1 mole of CO₂

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 42 g (i.e 0.5 mole) of NaHCO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ reacted to produce 1 mole of CO₂.

Therefore, 0.5 mole of NaHCO₃ will also react to produce 0.5 mole of CO₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of CO₂ was obtained from the reaction.

Explain why trees are a renewable resource and how this resource can me maintained

Contact [7]

Trees are renewable resources because they can be replaced in a single lifetime and are replaced faster than they are harvested and used.

It can be maintained by responsible harvesting and use. One policy that many lumber companies advertise is that they plant a seed for every tree that they chop down.

Hope this helps! :)
