Answer:

3–methyl–2–butanol

Explanation:

To name the compound, we must:

1. Identify the functional group.

2. Give the functional group of the compound the lowest possible count.

3. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

4. Identify the substituent group attached.

5. Give the substituent group the lowest possible count.

6. Combine the above to get the name of the compound.

Now, let us obtain the name of the compound.

1. The functional group of the compound is Alcohol i.e —OH.

2. The functional group is located at carbon 2.

3. The longest continuous carbon chain is carbon 4 i.e butane. But the presence of the functional group i.e OH will replace the –e in butane with –ol. Therefore, the compound is butanol.

4. The substituent group attached is methyl i.e CH3.

5. The substituent group is located at carbon 3.

6. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–methyl–2–butanol.

Which of the reactions are exothermic?

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Reaction A, B, E and F are exothermic reactions.

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of reactants is more than the energy of the products. In these reactions, energy is released by the system.

The total enthalpy of the reaction $(\Delta H)$ comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of products is more than the energy of the reactants. In these reactions, energy is absorbed by the system.

The total enthalpy of the reaction $(\Delta H)$ comes out to be positive.

So, from the given option reaction which are exothermic are with negative value $(\Delta H)$ that enthalpy of reaction and those are:

1) $2Mg(s) + O_2( g )\rightarrow 2MgO (s)$ ,ΔH = -1203 kJ/mol

2) $NH_3 (g) + HCl (g)\rightarrow NH_4Cl (s)$ ,ΔH =-176 kJ/mol

3) $C(graphite) + O_2 (g)\rightarrow CO_2 (g)$ ,ΔH = -393.5 kJ/mol

4) $CH_4 (g) + 2O2 (g)\rightarrow CO_2 (g) + 2H_2O (l)$ ,ΔH =-891 kJ/mol

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!

alekssr [168]

Answer: Temperature and number of moles are the conditions which remain constant in Boyle's law.

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that at constant temperature the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume of gas.

Mathematically, it is represented as follows.

$P \propto \frac{1}{V}$

As equation for ideal gas is as follows.

PV = nRT

And, at constant temperature the pressure is inversely proportional to volume which also means that number of moles are also constant in Boyle's law.

Thus, we can conclude that temperature and number of moles are the conditions which remain constant in Boyle's law.

How is the law of conservation of mass applied to<br> ecology?

zmey [24]

Answer:

The Law of Conservation of Mass tells us that matter is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. ... The Law of Conservation of Mass applies as the total mass of the products is equal to the total mass of the reactants.
