Select the true statements about hydrocarbons.

Chemistry
1 answer:
daser333 [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a. Hydrocarbons have low boiling points compared to compounds of similar molar mass.

b. Hydrocarbons are hydrophobic.

d. Hydrocarbons are insoluble in water.

Explanation:

As we know that the hydrocarbons is a mix of carbon and hydrogen. In this the availability of the electronegative atom is not there that shows there is no bonding of the hydrogen plus it is dissolved. Also, the hydrocarbons is considered to be a non-polar but as compared to the water, water is a polar

In addition to this, the strong bond is no existed that shows the lower boiling points  

Therefore option A, B and D are right

When barium becomes positively charged, it forms a(n): (2 points)
mart [117]

Barium forms cation : Ba²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Barium element

Required

Ion type

Solution

Barium with the symbol Ba is an alkaline earth metal element having the atomic number 56

Electron configuration of Barium: [Xe] 6s2

If we look at this configuration, then Barium will try to achieve stability by removing 2 electrons so that the electron configuration is the same as the noble gas Xenon (Xe)

Because it removes 2 electrons, Barium has the number of protons> the number of electrons so that the charge is positive and forms a cation

Which best describes an oxidizing agent?
stellarik [79]

Answer:B) a reactant that undergoes reduction

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases during oxidation.

M\rightarrow M^++e^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced during reduction.

N^++e^-\rightarrow N

Overall reaction: M+N^+\rightarrow M^++N

The substance M which itself gets oxidized, reduces other and is called as reducing agent. The substance N which itself gets reduced, oxidizes other and is called as oxidizing agent.

What will be the pressure of 2.00 mol of an ideal gas at a temperature of 20.5 degrees Celsius and a volume of 62.3L?
erastova [34]

.774atm

First, look at what you have and look at the equations you can use to solve this problem. The best equation would be PV=nRT.

P being pressure, V being volume, n being moles, R being the gas constant, and T being temperature.

Before you start doing any of the math, make sure of two things. Since you're looking for pressure, you'll need a gas constant. When I did the problem, I used the gas constant of atm or atmospheres which is .0821.

Also! Remember to always convert celsius into kelvin, to do this, add 273 to the given celsius degree. After this is all set and done, your equation should look like this:

P = \frac{2 x .0821 x 293.5}{62.3}

The reason that the equation is divided by the volume is due to the fact that you need to isolate the variable or pressure.

Multiply everything on the top and divide by the bottom and you should receive the final answer of .774atm.

Hope this helps!
