Which statement is true regarding methane and ammonia?

2 answers:

6 0

The options for given question are as follow,

1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding.
2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. 
3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. 
4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. 
5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.

Answer:
Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).

Explanation:
Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.

Write Huckel's rule below and determine how many electrons are required to make an aromatic ring with n = 0, 1, and 2.

lisov135 [29]

Answer: The number of electrons for n = 0, 1 and 2 are 2, 6 and 10 respectively.

Explanation:

Huckel's rule is used to determine the aromaticity in a compound. The number of delocalized $\pi-$ electrons are calculated by using the equation:

$\text{Number of delocalized }\pi-\text{ electrons}=4n+2$

where,

n = 0 or any whole number

Calculating the value of electrons for n = 0

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of delocalized }\pi-\text{ electrons}=4(0)+2=2$

Calculating the value of electrons for n = 1

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of delocalized }\pi-\text{ electrons}=4(1)+2=6$

Calculating the value of electrons for n = 2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of delocalized }\pi-\text{ electrons}=4(2)+2=10$

Hence, the number of electrons for n = 0, 1 and 2 are 2, 6 and 10 respectively.

The graphics below shows how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related.

lisov135 [29]

Options found from another source are:

a. oxygen. b. glucose. c. energy stored as ATP. d. carbon dioxide and water

Answer:

c energy stored as ATP

Explanation:

Cellular respiration converts glucose into energy in the form of ATP (c). The answer cannot be oxygen (a), because this is required for this process as a final electron acceptor. In terms of photosynthesis, oxygen is released as a by-product. The answer cannot be glucose (b) because that is our starting point for respiration, and what is synthesised during photosynthesis. The answer cannot be (d) as carbon dioxide and water are released by cellular respiration, and required by photosynthesis

Naphthalene, commonly found in moth balls, is composed of 93.7% carbon and 6.3% hydrogen. The molar mass of naphthalene is 128 g

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

Explanation:

Centesimal composition means that in 100 g of compound we have x g of the element. Therefore in 100 g of naphthalene we have:

93.7 g of C

6.3 g of H

Let's make a rule of three:

In 100 g of naphthalene we have 93.7 g of C and 6.3 g of H

In 128 g of naphthalene we would have:

128 . 93.7 / 100 = 120 g of C

128. 6.3 / 100 = 8 g of H

We convert the mass to moles, by molar mass:

120 g . 1mol / 12 g = 10 moles C

8 g . 1mol/ 1g = 8 moles H

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

(The sub-index of each element is divided by the largest possible number)

In a reaction between 6.0 g of oxygen gas, 4.0 g of hydrogen gas, and 5.0 g of solid sulfur at standard temperature and pressure

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The limiting reagent is the O₂

Explanation:

We can think, this reaction

2O₂(g) + H₂(g) + S(s) → H₂SO₄

Mole of each = Mass / molar mass

6 g / 32 g/m = 0.187 mole O₂

4g / 2 g/m = 2 mole H₂

5g / 32.06 g/m = 0.156 mole S

Ratio between reactants is 2:1:1, 1:2:1, 1:1:2

For 2 mole of O₂, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 1 mol of S

0.187 mole of O₂, I need (the half)

0.093 mole of H₂ and 0.093 mole of S

For 1 mole of H₂, I need to react 2 mole of O₂ and 1 mol of S

2 mole of H₂, I need (the double of O₂ and the same for S)

4 mole of O₂ ; 2 mole of S

For 1 mol of S, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 2 mole of O₂

0.156 mole I need the same amount for H₂ and the double for O₂

0.156 mole of H₂ and 0.312 mole of O₂

In both cases, I can't make react, all the mass of oxygen, so this is the limiting reagent.

Draw the structure of 4-methyl-5-oxohexanal.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Explanation:

The structural formula provides more information which is often used to represent a particular organic substance. A structural formula indicates how the atoms are arranged within the molecule of a substance. From the information, the structure of 4-methyl-5-oxohexanal is represented by using a stick formula where the methyl group falls into position 4 and oxygen group falls into position 5 on the hexanal compound.

The structure is provided in the image attached below for better understanding.
