1. Name three alkanes and state a use for each.

1. The simplest alkane is the gas methane, whose molecular formula is CH4. Methane exists as a tetrahedral shape, but it is often represented by a flattened structure as are most organic compounds.

Two four-carbon alkanes are known, and they have measurably different chemical and physical properties.  Their structures are H3CCH2CH2CH3 and H3CCH(CH3)2.  Therefore they were named normal butane, often abbreviated as n-butane, and isobutane.  The straight-chain form is considered the "normal" form.  Alternatively, they could be named using the systematic IUPAC method as 1-methylpropane and 2-methylpropane, or even as butane and 2-methylpropane.  The IUPAC method names the longest straight carbon chain in the usual way and then numbers the carbons; the location of a substituent group is given by the number of its carbon.  The IUPAC method is always used for more complicated molecules, but many of the simpler ones still use non-systematic names, called trivial names, because these are less cumbersome to use.

2 . Unsaturated hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that have double or triple covalent bonds between adjacent carbon atoms. The term "unsaturated" means more hydrogen atoms may added to the hydrocarbon to make it saturated: consisting all single bonds.

Dont know 3. Sorry!

Idk about 1, but for 2a: saturated means that all carbons have the maximum amount of hydrogens attached to them, and unsaturated means that they don’t. Only alkanes are saturated because they have all single bonds, so they have the max amt of hydrogens bonded to the carbons. 2b: saturated: butane, octane, methane. Unsaturated: ethene, butene.

Hydrogen iodide decomposes slowly to H2 and I2 at 600 K. The reaction is second order in HI, and the rate constant is 9.7×10−6M−
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer : The molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 9.7\times 10^{-6}M^{-1}s^{-1}

t = time taken  = 5.00 days

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.110 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

9.7\times 10^{-6}=\frac{1}{5.00}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.110)}\right)

[A]=0.109M

Hence, the molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M

Please help me to answer this question.<br>i have to submit tomorrow.​
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

Why does heating a liquid affect viscosity
sveta [45]

Answer:

In general, liquids tend to get “thinner” when their temperature increases. For example, honey and oil tend to flow better at higher temperatures. Therefore, increasing temperature decreases viscosity. In general, the liquids tend to expand when their temperature increases

Which of the following statements is not a description of neptune?
KIM [24]
The appropriate answer is B. Has no atmosphere. Neptune is a gas giant and is the eight planet in the solar system. It has a thick atmosphere consisting of hydrogen, helium and methane. Neptune has at least eight moons with Triton being the largest.

Neptune has four rings which circle the planet. The rings are made of dust particles, similar to the rings of Saturn.
