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.

How many molecules of fructose would you have if you have 0.7 moles of<br> fructose?<br> *
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

4.214 × 10^23 molecules.

Explanation:

Number of molecules in a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in that substance by Avagadro's number, which is 6.02 × 10^23.

That is, no. of molecule = n × Avagadro constant

In this case, there are 0.7 moles of fructose. Hence;

number of molecules = 0.7 × 6.02 × 10^23

no. of molecule = 4.214 × 10^23 molecules.

How many moles of magnesium is 2.77 x 10^24 atoms of magnesium?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

4.6 moles.

Explanation:

To find the amount of moles of Magnesium, you will need to use Avogadro's number to convert between the two units.

2.77×10^24 moles Mg * (1 mol Mg)/(6.02*10^23)) ≈ 0.46×10^1 moles which equals <u>4.6 moles.</u>

Which sample equation best illustrates the Law of Conservation of Mass?
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

D . 20 grams reactant U + 3 grams reactant V → 23 grams product W

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass states:

The mass of a closed system (As a reaction), is neither created or destroyed.

That is, the mass of reactants is equal to mass of products.

A. In reaction A 22g of reactants produce 9g of products. This reaction doesn't illustrates the law of conservation of mass.

B. 10g reactant produce 25g of products. This reaction doesn't illustrates the law of conservation of mass.

C. 19g of reactants produce 180g of products. This reaction doesn't illustrates the law of conservation of mass.

D. 23g of reactants produce 23g of products. -This is the reaction that best illustrates the Law of Conservation of Mass.
