<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

a bond where electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in charge imbalance in each atom. a bond where electr
Illusion [34]

Answer:

1. A bond where electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in charge imbalance in each atom is called ionic bonding.

2. A bond where electrons are equally shared, resulting in equal numbers of electrons orbiting each atom is called non-polar covalent bond.

3. A bond where electrons are unequally shared, resulting in more electrons orbiting certain atoms than others is called a polar covalent bond.

4. A bond where the electronegativity differences between the atoms within a molecule result in the partially positive atoms of one molecule attracting the partially negative atoms of other molecules is called polar bond and it is part of the covalent bonds.

Explanation:

1. In ionic bonding process, electrons are enterely transferred from one atom to another either losing or gaining negatively charged electrons, and the reacting atoms form ions. A charge imbalance is caused then by the oppositely charged ions, when attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, the basis of the ionic bond.

2. A non-polar covalent bond is occurs when two atoms have same electron afinity to share their electrons equally. The closer the values of their electron affinity, the stronger the attractionis. This is created in diatomic elements or gas molecules.

3. A polar covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where two electrons are unequally shared between two atoms, electrons are not equally shared because one atom spends more time with the electrons than the other atom, resulting in more electrons orbiting certain atoms than others.

4. The polar bond is a type of covalent bonds. This bonds depends on atoms´electronegativity differences. If an atom is less electronegative, it means that the electron distribution or charge is unevenly distributed or polarized and then it becomes partially positive.

What is the index of hydrogen deficiency of a compound with a molecular formula of c6h15n?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

IHD = 0

Explanation:

Given that

C₆H₁₅N

Number of carbon atoms(n) = 6

Number of hydrogen atoms(x') = 15

Number of nitrogen atoms = 1

There is nitrogen atoms then x = x' -1

The index of hydrogen deficiency given as

IHD=\dfrac{2n+2-x}{2}

So

IHD=\dfrac{2n+2-x}{2}

IHD=\dfrac{2\time 6+2-(15-1)}{2}

IHD = 0

The index of hydrogen deficiency is zero.
