Answer: <span>Yes, a hydrocarbon is any compound that contains hydrogen and oxygen.

Justification:

First, I will try to rewrite the given structural formula since it is misrepresented.

This should be the right structural formula:

       H    H
       |      |
H - C  -  C - OH
       |      |
      H     H

And, yes the definition of hydrocarbon is that it is most simple organic compound constitured only by atoms of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H).

By the way, that hydrocarbon is also represented as CH3 - CH2 OH, it is an alcohol (since it has the functional group OH) and its name is ethanol.

A student makes a compound of sulfur and oxygen. She uses 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen, and all of the elemental substa
victus00 [196]
First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:

Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound

Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)

Mass % = 50.05%

The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.

What percent of earths total volume is the crust
vlada-n [284]

1%

Explanation:

The crust is the thinnest layer of the earth accounting for only 1% total volume of the planets.

Compositionally, the earth is divided into three layers which are the crust, mantle and the core.

  • The crust is the outermost layer of the earth. It rich in silicate minerals. The rocks are classified into igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
  • The mantle takes up about 84% of the total volume of the earth. It is located in between the crust and the core. It is predominantly made up of ferro-magnesian silicate minerals.
  • The cores accounts for slightly 15% of the volume of the earth. It is the center of our geoid shaped earth. It is rich in iron and nickel metals.

It is necessary to develop alternative sources of energy because____.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

scientists are uncertain of how long the resources will last.

Explanation:

It is hard to estimate how long certain natural resources will last because they are dependent upon the rate of consumption and other factors. There are many fields of studies going into alternative energy. Since the technology needed for some of these ideas will take time to be developed, alternative sources of energy must be found before the resources we already have run out.
