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

Imagine that you traveled to the Moon for a vacation and discovered that your weight is different there. How would your weight b

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer

No you did not lose weight.

Explanation:

Weight is the force acting on an object, Gravity is a force on earth which does not apply to the moon so your weight may change depending in where you are but your mass will stay the same because mass measures the matter of an object ITSELF! Have a nice day....

Selenium (Se) has 30 protons and 20 neutrons in each atom, therefore its atomic

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

30, 50

Explanation:

Hello,

In this since an element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in its atom, we can infer that selenium's atomic number is 30. Moreover, due to the fact the the neutrons are equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number or the number of protons, by knowing the number of neutrons we compute the atomic as follows:

$neutrons=mass-protons\\\\mass=neutrons+protons\\\\mass=30+20\\\\mass=50a.m.u$

Thus, answer is 30, 50.

Best regards.

Chemistry what is stoichiometry and the different formulas

USPshnik [31]

Stoichiometry is the relationship between the relative quantities of substances taking part in a reaction or forming a compound, typically a ratio of whole integers. Hoped this helped!!!!. Also if you are trying to look for the formulas it should be online just type in stoichometry formulas.
