Answer : The name of the given compound is, 6-ethyloct-2-ene

Explanation :

The basic rules for naming alkene are :

The longest possible carbon chain should include the carbons of double bond.
The longest chain is given the name by replacing suffix -ane with -ene.
The numbering is done in such a way that first carbon of double bond gets the lowest number.
The carbon atoms of the double bond get the preference over the other substituents present in the parent chain.
The position of double bond is indicated by placing the number before the suffix -ene.

In the given compound, the longest possible carbon chain has 8-carbon and ethyl substituent attached with 6 carbon atom and double bond present between the 2nd and 3rd carbon atom. So, the name of the molecule is, 6-ethyloct-2-ene

Thus the name of the given compound is, 6-ethyloct-2-ene

When is an isotope considered stable?<br> (Select all that apply.)

GaryK [48]

Explanation:

A stable isotope is one that does not emit radiation, or, if it does its half-life is too long to have been measured. It is believed that the stability of the nucleus of an isotope is determined by the ratio of neutrons to protons.

In a body of water, the surface tension caused by the attraction between water molecules is strong. Which of the following is a

Marina86 [1]

<span>Answer: Objects with a higher density than water can be observed floating on water

Water spider is one of the animals that can walk above the water. The legs of the spyder float because the force that it gives to the water surface is not higher than the surface tension, thus the water didn't break. Even though the spider density is higher than water, it could look like floating above the water.</span>

Compare the evaporation of a contained liquid with that of an uncontained liquid.

vekshin1

Answer: all other conditions equal, the rate evaporation of a contained liquid will be slower than the rate of evaporation of an uncontained liquid.

Justification:

1) The rate of evaporation increases as the surface area of the liquid (relative to the whole content) increases. This is, the greater the surface is the faster the evaporation.

2) That is so because the higher the surface of the liquid the more the number of particles in the liquid that are in contact with the surrounding air and so the more the particles will escape from the liquid to the air (which is what evaporation is).

3) A liquid contained will take the form of the container, so part of the liquid wil remain below the surface, while an uncontained liquid will spread all over the surface and so pratically all the liquid is in contact witht the air surrounding it.
