By comparing fossils of different primate species, scientists can study how different species have diversified over time.<span> Almost all sediment is either laid down horizontally in bodies of water like the oceans, or on land on the margins of streams and rivers. Each time a new layer of sediment is deposited it is laid down horizontally on top of an older layer. With this events, Geologists can established a set of principles that can be applied to sediments and to determine how these features evolved through time.</span>

Answer:

D. C > B >A

Hope it helps!

Explanation:

From strongest to weakest, the intermolecular forces rank in the following way:

Strongest: Hydrogen bonding. This occurs when compounds contain #"O"-"H"# , #"N"-"H"# , or #"F"-"H"# bonds. ...

Less strong: Dipole-dipole forces. ...

Weakest: London Dispersion Forces.

6. 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon consumes 300
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>a. C₂H₄</em></u>

Explanation:

At constant pressure and temperature, the mole ratio of the gases is equal to their volume ratio (a consequence of Avogadro's law).

Hence, the <em>complete combustion reaction</em> that has a ratio of 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon to 300 ml of oxygen, is that whose mole ratio is 1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, you must write the balanced chemical equations for the complete combustion of the four hydrocarbons in the list of choices, and conclude which has such mole ratio (1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol oxygen).

A complete combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is the reaction with oxygen that produces CO₂ and H₂O, along with the release of heat and light.

<u>a. C₂H₄:</u>

  • C₂H₄ (g) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

Precisely, for this reaction the mole ratio is 1 mol C₂H₄: 2 mol O₂, hence, this is the right choice.

The following analysis just shows that the other options are not right.

<u>b. C₂H₂:</u>

  • 2C₂H₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

The mole ratio for this reaction is 2 mol C₂H₂ :5 mol O₂.

<u>с. С₃Н₈</u>

  • C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g)  + 4H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 1 mol C₃H₈ : 5 mol O₂

<u>d. C₂H₆</u>

  • 2C₂H₆ (g) +7 O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 6H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 2 mol C₂H₆ : 7 mol O₂
