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.

8. A 220 mL sample of helium gas is in a cylinder with a movable piston at 105 kPa and 275K. The piston
Harrizon [31]

The sample has a new pressure of 274kPa. If at 105 kPa and 275K, a 220 mL sample of helium gas is contained in a cylinder with a moving piston. The sample is pushed till it has a 95.0 mL volume and 310K .

The macroscopic characteristics of ideal gases are related by the ideal gas law (PV = nRT). A gas is considered to be perfect if its particles (a) do not interact with one another and (b) occupy no space (have no volume). Where P= pressure  V= volume and T = temperature.

From ideal gas equation

P₁V₁/T₁ =P₂V₂/T₂

105×220÷275 = P₂ ×95÷310

P₂= (105×220×310)÷(275×95)

P2= 7161000/26125

P2 = 274.105 kPa

Hence, the new pressure of helium gas is 274kPa
