Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that molecular formula is C_{9}H_{16}. Now, we will calculate the degree of unsaturation as follows.

Degree of unsaturation = C_{n} - \frac{\text{monovalent}}{2} + \frac{\text{trivalent}}{2} + 1

                                  = 9 - \frac{16}{2} + 1

                                  = 9 - 8 + 1

                                  = 2

As the degree of unsaturation comes out to be 2. It means that this compound will contain one ring and one double bond.

Yes, this compound could be an alkyne as for alkyne D.B.E = 2.

But this compound cannot be a cycloalkane because for a cycloalkane D.B.E = 1 which is due to the ring only.

Thus, we can conclude that it is a cycloalkane is not a structural possibility for this hydrocarbon.

  • A)Potassium bromide(aq) + Barium iodide(aq) → Potassium iodide(aq) + Barium bromide(s)

  • 2KBr(aq)+BaI2(aq) → 2KI(aq)+BaBr2(s)

  • B)Balance the Chemical Equation for the reaction of calcium carbonate with hydrochloric acid: 
  • CaCO3+ HCl -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O To balance chemical equations we need to look at each element individually on both sides of the equation. calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula CaCO3.

Paha777 [63]

Answer: (3) molecules have different molecular structures.


Explanation:


1) Oxygen (O₂) and ozone (O₃) are allotropes of each other.


2) Allotropes are different structural forms of a same element with different structures and properties, when they are in the same state: solid, liquid, gas.


3) The bonds is what define the structure and properties of the substances, so since O₂ has only two bonds and O₃ has three bonds, the properties and behaviors of the element are different.


4) Other example of allotropes are graphite and diamond: two different forms of carbon. Both, graphite and diamond are formed only by carbon atoms, but they are bonded differently so, as you know, diamond and graphite have different properties: graphite is very soft while diamond is one of the hardest known substances.
