Answer:
C₄H₉O₂
Explanation:
just count the amount of atoms present in the model.
Answer:
(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.
Explanation:
It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.
However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.
Answer:
3
Explanation:
Order of in the mass action law is the coefficient which is raised to the active concentration of the reactants. It is experimentally determined and can be zero, positive negative or fractional.
The order of the whole reaction is the sum of the order of each reactant which is raised to its power in the rate law.
Thus,
For the reaction:-
2Mg+O₂→2MgO
Rate = k[Mg][O₂]²
Order w.r.t. Mg = 1
Order w.r.t. O₂ = 2
<u>So, order of the overall reaction = 1 + 2 = 3</u>
Answer;
(3) Substance A is an element and substance Z is a compound.
Explanation;
-A compound is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together, such as water, carbon dioxide, methane, etc while an element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atoms, such includes, oxygen, potassium, hydrogen, carbon, etc.
- Compounds can be broken
down or decomposed into simpler substances: elements cannot be broken down chemically into simpler substances .
