Which compound is used to make asphalt?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Masteriza [31]3 years ago

Asphalt is a biproduct of making gasoline, diesel, kerosene, jet fuel, all from crude oil pumped from the ground. Asphalt is the garbage or waste that comes out the bottom of the process of distilling those products. They heat the thick oily-sooty gunky asphalt and mix it with rock or sand and make roads out of it. So the compound would be the long hydrocarbon chains.

Answer:

a saturated hydrocarbon that has more than 35 carbons in its chain

Explanation: Alkanes with a chain length of approximately 35 or more carbon atoms are found in bitumen (asphalt), used (for example) in road surfacing. However, the higher alkanes have little value and are usually split into lower alkanes by cracking.

How many grams of nh3 can be produced from 3.72 mol of n2 and excess h2.
olganol [36]
N₂       + 3H₂ ⇒ 2NH₃
1mol       :         2mol
3,72mol  :         7,44mol

n = 7,44mol
M = 17g/mol

m = n * M = 7,44mol * 17g/mol = 126,48g

would you expect the N-O bond in HNO2 to be longer, shorter, or the same length as the N-O bonds in NO2^-
prohojiy [21]
Longer, this is because the H in HNO2 is bonded with an oxygen, no longer allowing this structure to have a resonance structure.
NO2 on the other hand has one double bond and one single bond, so it has a resonance structure. And resonance structures are actually one structure so there isn't really a single and double bond, it's actually a 1 and 1/2 bond that calls for a higher bond order.
And I higher bond order will result in a shorter lengths!
I hope this helps out!!! And just out of curiosity, is this off of an AP FRQ packet??

Use the drop-down menus to classify each of the following as an addition, substitution, elimination, or
OLga [1]

Answer:

CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3 - addition

CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2 - elimination

CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br - substitution

2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20 - condensation

Explanation:

An addition reaction is a reaction in which a specie is added across the double bond as we can see in CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3.

In an elimination reaction, a small molecule is lost from a saturated compound to form the corresponding unsaturated compound as in CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2

In a substitution reaction, a chemical moiety replaces another in a molecule as in; CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br .

A condensation reaction is in which two molecules are joined together to form a bigger molecule as in; 2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20.

A 32.2 g iron rod, initially at 21.9 C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.5 C. in an insulated container. The fin
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer : The mass of the water in two significant figures is, 3.0\times 10^1g

Explanation :

In this case the heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of iron metal = 0.45J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of iron metal = 32.3 g

m_2 = mass of water = ?

T_f = final temperature of mixture = 59.2^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of iron metal = 21.9^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 63.5^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

32.3g\times 0.45J/g^oC\times (59.2-21.9)^oC=-m_2\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (59.2-63.5)^oC

m_2=30.16g\approx 3.0\times 10^1g

Therefore, the mass of the water in two significant figures is, 3.0\times 10^1g
