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.

The pH of a solution that is formed by the neutralization of 1.0M H2SO4(aq) and 1.0 M KOH(aq) is closest to
pshichka [43]

Answer:

b) 7

Explanation:

The pH of a solution produced by the neutralization reaction between 1M of H₂SO₄ and KOH with 1M is closest to 7.

pH is a standard for measuring the acidity and alkalinity of a solution. A solution that is acidic will have a pH less than 7, a neutral solution will have pH of 7 and a basic solution will have pH greater than 7.

What is a neutralization reaction?

  • It is an acid-base reaction in which hydrogen and hydroxide ions combines to form water.
  • Also a salt results from the combination of the other ions.

In this reaction a base simply neutralizes an acid and the solution becomes neutral before it goes into completion.

Therefore, a neutral solution will have pH of 7 or close to it.

Sulfur oxides Carbon monoxides Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)Nitrates are responsible for the hole in the ozone layer.
svp [43]
The best answer for the question above would be the chloroflourocarbons or the CFCs. These chloroflourocarbons or CFCs are the ones responsible for the depletion of the ozone - which leads to leaving a hole in its layer. These gases eat out the ozone layer and allows harmful UV rays of the sun to come in the Earth.

Convert 123 in scientific notation
dalvyx [7]
✡ Answer: 1.23*10^2 ✡


- - Add a decimal at the end (to the right) and count till you get to the first number.
So now you have 1.23

- - Now you always want to times it by 10 to the power of how many times you moved it over, in this case, 2

Final answer: 1.23*10^2

✡Hope this helps✡
