<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct answer is pentane-1,5-diamine</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The distinctive smell of dead animals comes largely from molecules like cadaverine and putrescine that are made when proteins break down, but the decomposition of high-protein plants can make a deathly smell too. Cadaverine is a foul-smelling diamine compound produced by the putrefaction of animal tissue. Cadaverine is a toxic diamine with the formula NH2(CH2)5NH2, which is similar to putrescine. It is the chemical that comes from dead fish

Scientist looking for new substances in plants grind up the plants with methanol. This solvent dissolves many plant compounds. H
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.

The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.

The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.

What is the maximum amount of CO2
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

10.6 g CO₂

Explanation:

You have not been given a limiting reagent. Therefore, to find the maximum amount of CO₂, you need to convert the masses of both reactants to CO₂. The smaller amount of CO₂ produced will be the accurate amount. This is because that amount is all the corresponding reactant can produce before it runs out.

To find the mass of CO₂, you need to (1) convert grams C₂H₂/O₂ to moles (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles C₂H₂/O₂ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams (via molar mass). *I had to guess the chemical reaction because the reaction coefficients are necessary in calculating the mass of CO₂.*

C₂H₂ + O₂ ----> 2 CO₂ + H₂

9.31 g C₂H₂            1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
------------------  x  -------------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------  =
                            26.0373 g           1 mole C₂H₂              1 mole

=  31.5 g CO₂

3.8 g O₂             1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
-------------  x  --------------------  x  ----------------------  x  --------------------  =
                       31.9988 g              1 mole O₂                 1 mole

=  10.6 g CO₂

10.6 g CO₂ is the maximum amount of CO₂ that can be produced. In other words, the entire 3.8 g O₂ will be used up in the reaction before all of the 9.31 g C₂H₂ will be used.

What does resonance result in?
Tcecarenko [31]

louder sounds

Explanation:

Resonance results in louder sounds.

Resonance is a phenomenon that produces a large vibration as a result of smaller vibration that causes the resonating body to vibrate at its own natural frequency.

Resonance results in sound amplification and causes louder sounds. Increasing vibration results in the production of a louder sound.

What is the mass of 2.2x10^9 molecules of CO2? *​
olga55 [171]

Answer: 9.68 x 10^10 grams.

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of CO2 = ?

Number of molecules of CO2 = 2.2x10^9 molecules

Molar mass of CO2 = ? (let unknown value be Z)

For the molar mass of CO2: Atomic mass of Carbon = 12; Oxygen = 16

= 12 + (16 x 2)

= 12 + 32 = 44g/mol

Apply the formula:

Number of molecules = (Mass of CO2 in grams/Molar mass)

2.2x10^9 molecules = Z/44g/mol

Z = 2.2x10^9 molecules x 44g/mol

Z = 9.68 x 10^10g

Thus, the mass of 2.2x10^9 molecules of CO2 is 9.68 x 10^10 grams.
