The isotopes of an element differ in the number or neutrons whereas the number of protons or electrons of a neutral atom stays the same. The molar mass of the element is based on the percent abundances of different isotopes and the individual molar mass of each isotope.

xenn [34]

Answer

Manual samplers are prone to effects of temperature, speed of wind and air concentrations.

Explanation

Manual samplers face several challenges that can act as drawbacks to obtaining accurate results. They are subjected to effects of sampling duration where long sampling times are needed to obtain adequate mass for detection. Manual samplers face challenges when measuring non-volatile species because particles are observed into the adsorption medium at a slower rate of diffusion.

Which statement gives an example of asexual reproduction (A.a new potato plant grows from a potato (B.two worms mate and produce
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Asexual reproduction involves the production of offspring without the need for a secondary partner to contribute genetic information.

Pollination and mating are two forms of sexual reproduction, so B, C, and D are incorrect. A, because the new potato grows directly from the old without the contribution of new genetic material, asexually reproduces.

4. Why do elements in the same family generally have similar properties?
snow_tiger [21]
Because they have the same number of electrons in the outer shell, they have the same reactivity (they all want to lose/gain a certain amount of electrons to have a full shell of 8), so they have the similar melting, boiling points etc because they all undergo very similar reactions to certain factors so have similar outcomes

What isa the UIPAC name H3C<br> CH2-CH2-CH3<br> CH-CH-CH2-CH3<br> H3C—CH<br> CH<br> CH3
aliina [53]

Answer:

4–ethyl–2,3–dimethylheptane

Explanation:

To name the compound given above, do the following:

1. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound. In this case, the longest continuous carbon chain is 7. Thus the parent name is Heptane.

2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound. In this case, the substituent group attached are:

a. Methyl (–CH₃). There are two methyl group attached.

b. Ethyl (–CH₂CH₃)

3. Locate the position of the substituent group attached to the compound by naming alphabetically.

a. The two Methyl (–CH₃) groups are located at carbon 2 and 3

b. The Ethyl (–CH₂CH₃) is located at carbon 4.

NOTE: The position of the Ethyl (–CH₂CH₃) group is the same from both side so we consider the lowest count for the methyl group.

4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.

The name of the compound is:

4–ethyl–2,3–dimethylheptane
