Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An organic compound that contains "-OH" group as the functional group is known as an alcohol compound.

General formula of an alcohol is $C_{n}H_{2n+1}OH$ .

In the given compound there are 2 carbon atoms. So, value of n = 2.

Putting this value in the general formula as follows.

$C_{2}H_{2(2)+1}OH$

= $C_2H_{5}OH$

or $C_{2}H_{6}O$

Therefore, we can conclude that given compound has chemical formula $C_{2}H_{6}O$ .

A compound is 2.00% H by mass, 32.7% S by mass, and 65.3% O by mass. What is its empirical formula? The first step is to calcula

Georgia [21]

For a 100-g compound, we would have 2 g H, 32.7 g S, and 65.3 g O. We then divide each of these masses by their molar masses:
2 g H / 1.01 g/mol = 1.98 mol H
32.7 g S / 32.07 g/mol = 1.0196 mol S
65.3 g O / 16.00 g/mol = 4.08125 mol O
We then divide each amount of moles by the smallest of them, which is the 1.0196 from S:
1.98 mol H / 1.0196 mol S = 1.94 H ~ 2 H
1.0196 mol S / 1.0196 mol S = 1 S
4.08125 mol O / 1.0196 mol S = 4 O
So the empirical formula of the compound is H2SO4.

Determine the number of bonding electrons and the number of nonbonding electrons in the structure of SeCl2.

Sindrei [870]

A Lewis structure is a model that uses electron-dot structures to show how electrons are arranged in molecules.

total valance electron of SeCl2 = 20

valance electon of Se= 6

valance electron of two Cl= 14

in figure shows that two bond pairs, two bond present between Se and Cl

Non bonded electron is 16

and bond pair of electron is 4

What is the correct life sequence of a star?

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

stars are born in vast clouds of gas and dust. stars spend most of their lives on the main sequence fusing hydrogen gas to helium gas. stars eventually swell up to form a red giant star. stars like the Sun end their lives as planetary nebulae and white dwarfs.
