How many alcohols and ethers share the molecular formula c2h6o?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Katen [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Alcohol :CH₃-CH₂-OH (ethanol)

Ether: H₃C-O-CH₃  (dimethyl ether)

Explanation:

Alcohols are compounds containing the hydroxyl or the -OH functional group i.e. R-OH where R is an alkyl or aryl group

Ethers are compounds with a general structure, R-O-R' where R and R' are once again either alkyl or aryl groups.

The given compound has a molecular formula: C₂H₆O

Structure with 'alcohol' -OH functional group

CH₃-CH₂-OH ------- ethanol

Structure with ether functionality:

H₃C-O-CH₃     ---------dimethyl ether

Answer is: there are two compounds with molecular formula C₂H₆O, one alcohol and one ethar.

Alcohol with molecular formula C₂H₆O is ethanol or ethyl alcohol (C₂H₅OH).

Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with characteristic odor.

Ether with molecular formula C₂H₆O is dimethyl ether (CH₃OCH₃).

Dimethyl ether is a colorless gas.

How tungsten conducts electricity
Elis [28]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The virtue that tungsten is metal it means that it does conduct electricity. Tungsten does conduct electricity currents quite well, such as when compared to iron and nickel. It is, however, not a good conductor as compared to other metals though it does get the job done.

Acetic acid has a Kb of 2.93 °C/m and a normal boiling point of 118.1 °C. What would be the boiling point of a solution made by
alexdok [17]

Boiling point elevation is given as:

ΔTb=iKbm

Where,

ΔTb=elevation in the boiling point

that is given by expression:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

Here Tb (pure solvent)=118.1 °C

i for CaCO3= 2

Kb=2.93 °C/m

m=Molality of CaCO₃:

Molality of CaCO₃=Number of moles of CaCO₃/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(Given Mass of CaCO3/Molar mass of CaCO₃)/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(100.0÷100 g/mol)/0.4

= 2.5 m

So now putting value of m, i and Kb in the boiling point elevation equation we get:

ΔTb=iKbm

=2×2.93×2.5

=14.65 °C

boiling point of a solution can be calculated:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

14.65=Tb (solution)-118.1

Tb (solution)=118.1+14.65

=132.75

he number-average molecular weight of a polypropylene is 1,000,000 g/mol. Compute the degree of polymerization.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The answer is "23765.4"

Explanation:

Motor weight average number (\bar{M_n}) = 1000000 \frac{g}{mol}

Poly condensation degree dependent on the average number of molecular weights is as follows:

DP_n = \frac{\text{Mol.Wt Number Medium}}{\text{Monomer Unit Mol.Wt}}

All monomer module, in this case, is propylene  

Sunrise. Unit Wt = Mol. Propylene weight

                           = \ Mol. \ Wt \ of \ C_3H_6\\\\= 3 \times 12.01 +6 \times 1.008 \ \ \frac{g}{mol}\\\\= 42.078 \frac{g}{mol}\\\\

DP_n = \frac{1000000}{42.078}\\\\

    =23765.4

A sample of chlorine gas occupies a volume of 707 ml at 2.90 atm. What is the new pressure in torr if the volume is compressed t
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The new pressure is 3850 torr.  

Explanation:

The relation between volume and pressure is inverse as per Boyle's law. Its mathematical form is given by :

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Here,

P_1=2.9\ atm

V_1=707\ mL

V_2=0.533\ L

Let P_2 is the new pressure. So using Boyle's law we get :

P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{2.9\times 707}{0.533}\\\\P_2=3846.71\ \text{torr}

or

P_2=3850\ \text{torr}

So, the new pressure is 3850 torr.
