In the structure of propane, CH3-CH2-CH3, there are 10 total bonds. Two carbon-carbon single bonds, and eight carbon-hydrogen single bonds. Each of these single bonds is also known as a sigma bond. Every hydrogen atom in this molecule uses an s-orbital to form bonds.

Each carbon atom in this molecule forms four sigma bonds. The electrons of each carbon atom are found in one s-orbital and three p-orbitals. However, when forming sigma bonds, the carbon atoms combine the four atomic orbitals into four molecular orbitals. This results in each carbon now having four hydridized sp3 orbitals. Therefore, each carbon atom is sp3 hybridized.

Now, when forming a sigma bond, the hybrid orbitals are used in the bonding. So for each C-H bond in this structure, the sigma bond is composed of an sp3 orbital from the carbon, and an s-orbital from the hydrogen. In the case of the C-C bonds, each sigma bond is simply a combination of two sp3 orbitals, one from each carbon.

Density is a derived unit of mass / volume.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

1kg/L

Explanation:

1.) convert grams to kilograms

1000g÷1000=1kg

2.)use formula to find density

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

= 1kg/1.0L

=1kg/L

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Option D: More than 30 seconds

Explanation:

The enzyme CATALASE is found in almost all living organisms. CATALASE helps in the decomposition of one substance into another substance. CATALASE will breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

When the potatoes were boiled it will surely produce no bubbles because the heat would have degrade the enzyme - catalase While the potatoes at room temperature potato produced the most bubbles because catalase works best at a room temperature.

If the potato solution was boiled for 10 minutes and cooled for 10 minutes before being tested, the average time for the disks to float to the surface of the hydrogen peroxide solution would be MORE THAN 30 SECONDS

Margaret [11]
Correct Answer: Option C i.e <span>Solution

Reason: 
Solutions are characterized by particles of size less than 1nm. Since the particle size in solutions are very small, they cannot be separated by centrifugation. On other hand, colloids have particle size ranging from 1nm to 100 nm, while suspensions have particle size > 100 nm. Hence, they can be separated by centrifugation. </span>
