Answer : The name of the given hydrocarbon is, pentane.

Explanation :

The basic rules for naming of organic compounds are :

  • First select the longest possible carbon chain.
  • For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
  • A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name of alkane.
  • If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

In the given hydrocarbon, the longest possible carbon chain number is 5 that means we add prefix 'pent' and suffix '-ane'. So, the name of given hydrocarbon will be, pentane.

Hence, the correct option is, pentane.

Water flows from the bottom of a large tank where the pressure is 100 psig through a pipe to a turbine which produces 5.82 hp. T
Marianna [84]

Explanation:

Bernoulli equation for the flow between bottom of the tank and pipe exit point is as follows.

   \frac{p_{1}}{\gamma} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g} + z_{1} = \frac{p_{2}}{\gamma} + \frac{V^{2}_{2}}{2g} + z_{2} + h_{f} + h_{t}

    \frac{(100 \times 144)}{62.43} + 0 + h[tex] = [tex]\frac{(50 \times 144)}{(62.43)} + \frac{(70)^{2}}{2(32.2)} + 0 + 40 + 60

                          h = \frac{(50 \times 144)}{(62.43)} + \frac{(70)^{2}}{2(32.2)} + 40 + 60 - \frac{(100 \times 144)}{(62.43)}

                            = 60.76 ft

Hence, formula to calculate theoretical power produced by the turbine is as follows.

                                 P = mgh

                                     = 100 \times 60.76

                                     = 6076 lb.ft/s

                                     = 11.047 hp

Efficiency of the turbine will be as follows.

                \eta_{t} = \frac{P_{actual}}{P_{theoretical}} × 100%

                                = \frac{5.82}{11.047} \times 100%                      

                                = 52.684%

Thus, we can conclude that the efficiency of the turbine is 52.684%.

Describe ways a lack of water could affect cell functions?
ladessa [460]

The way a lack of water could affect cell functions is that cell membranes would lack structure.

Osmosis causes water to flow from the cell into the surrounding liquid. This causes the protoplasm all the material inside the cell, to shrink from the cell wall. Excessive water loss leading to cell wall breakdown can lead to cell death. Water is an important part of the protoplasm of living cells as it is directly involved in myriad biochemical reactions such as photosynthesis and respiration.

Without them, cells cannot move waste and byproducts absorb nutrients, carry out intracellular transport functions or send signals. Regulates body temperature. Moisten eye nose and mouth tissues. Protects body organs and tissues. Carry nutrients and oxygen to cells. Plasmolysis is a situation in which cells lose water in hypertonic solutions. the plant cells lose water causing them to shrink or shrink removing the cell cytoplasm from the cell wall.

dimulka [17.4K]

The answer would be 4.

The agencies are:

Department of Agriculture's Forest Service (AFS)

Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM)

Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)

National Park Service (NPS)

These four agencies cover around 95% of the land and are the only federal agencies.

I learned about these agencies in school.
