The solid form of a substance is usually more dense than its liquid and gaseous forms. Similarly the liquid form is usually more

dense than the gaseous form.

A is the answer.

Ice is solid, however, water is liquid. Yet ice still floats which is less dense than water.

Hope this helps!

A 1.24g sample of a hydrocarbon, when completely burned in an excess of O2 yields 4.04g Co2 and 1.24g H20. Draw plausible struct
arsen [322]

Answer:

Plausible structure has been given below

Explanation:

  • Molar mass of CO_{2} is 44 g/mol and molar mass of H_{2}O is 18 g/mol
  • Number of mole = (mass/molar mass)

4.04 g of CO_{2} = \frac{4.04}{44}moles CO_{2} = 0.0918 moles of CO_{2}

1 mol of CO_{2} contains 1 mol of C atom

So, 0.0918 moles of CO_{2} contains 0.0918 moles of C atom

1.24 g of H_{2}O = \frac{1.24}{18}moles H_{2}O = 0.0689 moles of H_{2}O

1 mol of H_{2}O  contain 2 moles of H atom

So, 0.0689 moles of H_{2}O contain (2\times 0.0689)moles of H_{2}O or 0.138 moles of H_{2}O

Moles of C : moles of H = 0.0918 : 0.138 = 2 : 3

Empirical formula of hydrocarbon is C_{2}H_{3}

So, molecular formula of one of it's analog is C_{4}H_{6}

Plausible structure of C_{4}H_{6} has been given below.

Answer:

See detailed answer with explanation below.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are electrons found on the outermost shell of an atom. They are the electrons in an atom that participate in chemical combination. Recall that the outermost shell of an atom is also referred to as its valence shell. Let us consider an example; if we look at the atom, sodium-11, its electronic configuration is 2,8,1. The last one electron is the valence electron of sodium which is found in its outermost or valence shell.

Positive ions are formed when electrons are lost from the valence shell of an atom. For instance, if the outermost electron in sodium is lost, we now form the sodium ion Na^+ which is a positive ion. Positive ions possess less number of electrons compared to their corresponding atoms.

Negative ions are formed when one or more electrons is added to the valence shell of an atom. A negative ion possesses more electrons than its corresponding atom. For example, chlorine(Cl) contains 17 electrons but the chloride ion (Cl^-) contains 18 electrons.

In molecular compounds, a bond is formed when two electrons are shared between the bonding atoms. Each bonding atom may contribute one of the shared electrons (ordinary covalent bond) or one of the bonding atoms may provide the both shared electrons (coordinate covalent bond). The shared pair may be located at an equidistant position to the nucleus of both atoms. Similarly, the electron may be drawn closer to the nucleus of one atom than the other (polar covalent bond) depending on the electro negativity of the two bonding atoms.

The electrons are shared in order to complete the octet of each atom by so doing, the both bonding atoms now obey the octet rule. For example, two chlorine atoms may come together to form a covalent bond in which each chlorine atom has an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.

I have 345mL of a 1.5M NaCl solution. If I boil the water until the volume of the solution is 250mL, what will the molarity of t
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Answer is
C. 2.07 M


For explanation

M1V1 = M2V2

M2 = (M1V1)/V2

M2 = (1.5M x 345ml) / 250 ml

:. M2 = 2.07 M
