Answer : The correct option is, (C) a carbon chain with a carbonyl group bonded to one end.

Explanation :

An aldehyde is an organic compound which contain a functional group with (-CHO) i.e R-CHO

R-CHO functional group consists of a carbonyl center that means a carbon which is double-bonded to the oxygen. The carbon of this carbonyl group bonded with the hydrogen to one end and a carbon chain, (R) to another end.

Some examples of an aldehydes are formaldehyde $(HCHO)$ , acetaldehyde $(CH_3CHO)$

Therefore, the correct answer is, (C)

Determine the freezing point of a 0.765 m solution of nitrobenzene in naphthalene. (given: naphthalene Kf = 7.45o C Kg/ mole and

amid [387]

Answer: The freezing point of a 0.765 m solution of nitrobenzene in naphthalene is $74.6^0C$

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

$\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m$

$\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=(80.3-T_f)^0C$ = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte such as nitrobenzene)

$K_f$ = freezing point constant = $7.45^0C/m$

m= molality = 0.765

$(80.3-T_f)^0C=1\times 7.45\times 0.765$

$T_f=74.6^0C$

Thus the freezing point of a 0.765 m solution of nitrobenzene in naphthalene is $74.6^0C$

What type of reaction is Al + 3CuSO4 --> Al2(SO4)3 + 3 Cu

laila [671]

It's a Single Replacement (or Displacement) Reaction because the equation follows the basic format for that type of reaction.

For Single Replacement Reactions, the general formula is:

AB + C = AC + B

So, if there's an element and compound on both sides of the equation, it's single replacement.
