Answer:

D. Thermal conduction is blocked by the flip-flops.

Explanation:

Convection is a process of heat transfer which involves fluids( liquid or gas). This however rules convection out of the answer.

Radiation involves heat transfer from the sun to bodies on earth.

Conduction involves heat transfer between two solid bodies. Hot beach sand and flip-flops are solid bodies which validates thermal(heat) conduction.

Which pair of reactants will undergo aldol condensation to produce methylvinyl ketone?

xenn [34]

When formaldehyde and acetone then react with each other( aldol condensation) then it will be formed <u> methyl vinyl ketone.</u>

<u />

In organic chemistry, an aldol condensation would be a condensation reaction in which an enol and enolate ion combines with a carbonyl chemical to produce a -hydroxy aldehyde or -hydroxy ketone, that is then dehydrated to produce a conjugated enone.

In aldol condensation, when formaldehyde and acetone then react with each other then it will be formed <u> </u><u>methyl vinyl ketone.</u>

It can be written as

$CH_{2} O + CH_{3} COCH_{3}$ → $HOCH_{2} -CH_{2} -CO-CH_{3}$

When it will be heated then it gives methyl vinyl ketones.

$HOCH_{2} -CH_{2} -CO-CH_{3}$ → $CH_{2} =CH-CO-CH_{3}$

So, the pair of reactants will be formaldehyde and acetone

The hot dogs you ate at the barbecue last week were 75% fat-free by weight, had 275 calories, and weighed 110 g. a) What percent

vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) 25%

b) 27.5 g

c) 90%

Explanation:

a) 75% fat-free by weight means 25% of the weight is made by fat.

b) 110 g ___ 100%

x ___ 25%

x = 27.5g

Each hot dog has 27.5g of fat.

c) 9 cal ___ 1 g fat

y ___ 27.5 g fat

y = 247.5 cal

275 cal ___ 100%

247.5 cal ___ z

z = 90%

90 % of the calories come from fat.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of permanganate ion mno−4 to solid manganese dioxide mno2 in acidic aqueous sol

Svetlanka [38]

The half-reaction includes either the reduction or the oxidation reaction of the redox reactions. In acidic solution permanganate ion will react with hydrogen ion to yield manganese ion and water.

<h3>What are Redox reactions?</h3>

Redox or oxidation-reduction reactions are the chemical reactions in which the oxidation and the reduction of the chemical species occur simultaneously.

Permanganate (VII) ion is a strong oxidizing agent and gets easily reduced to manganese ion in presence of the hydrogen ion in an acidic solution.

The balanced half-reaction for reduction is shown as,

$\rm MnO_{4}^{-} \; (aq)+ 8H^{+} \; (aq)+ 5e^{-} \rightarrow Mn^{2+} \; (aq)+ 4H_{2}O \; (l)$
