It is an example of Self Condensation reaction as both the nucleophile and the electrophile are the same compounds. When Butanal is reacted with base, the hydrogen at alpha position is abstracted due to its mild acidity and enolate is formed. Enolate attacks second Butanal molecule and forms a compound containing both Hydroxyl group and carbonyl group (Beta hydroxy aldehyde). Reaction is shown below and the name of product is specified below its structure,

Which statements describe the six elements found in all living things? Check all that apply.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Carbon is the basis of all living things

Nitrogen is found in certain foods

Oxygen and hydrogen combine with each other to form water

Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur are found in organic compounds

Explanation:

We are all made up of mainly three elements, Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. These three elements are found in every living organism on our planet, and along with a few trace elements, they make up all the nutrients we take in and use to build our bodies and survive.

Nitrogen is primarily found in meats, and this is because nitrogen is a key element in amino acids (which are used to build proteins), however we cannot directly assimilate nitrogen from the air, so we have to assimilate it through amino acids already synthesized in plants, or in proteins found in meat.

The chemical formula for water is H₂O. Seeing the chemical formula, it is obvious that hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements in the water molecule.

In our bodies, we use phosphorus to form our skeleton and help maintain it, sulfur and nitrogen can be found in some amino acids, and carbon, hydrogen and oxygen can be found in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.

If an ideal gas has a pressure of 2.97 atm, a temperature of 449 K, and has a volume of 58.35 L, how many miles of gas are in th

soldi70 [24.7K]

N = ?

T = 449 K

V = 58.35 L

P =2.97

R = 0.082

Use the clapeyron equation:

P x V = n x R x T

2.97 x 58.35 = n x 0.082 x 449

173.2995 = n x 36.818

n = 173.2995 / 36.818

n = 4.70 moles

hope this helps!
