The structure is in attachment.
Hexane is alkane (acyclic saturated hydrocarbon, carbon-carbon bonds are single) of six carbon atoms. Methoxy group is the functional group consisting of a methyl group bound to oxygen. Iodo is substituent consists of ionide (element in 17 periodic group).

Answer:

Point out the substituents and longest carbon chain to draw the structure

Explanation:

It is a substituted alkane with longest carbon chain contains 6 carbon atoms ("Hex" denotes 6 carbons and "ane" denotes alkane)

There are two substituents present here- (1) methoxy group at C-2 position and (2) iodo group at C-5 position.

Place these two substituents in main carbon chain to draw 5-iodo-2-methoxyhexane

Why is the equation: 4Fe+ 3O2 → 2Fe2O unbalanced for rust?

ahrayia [7]

Explanation:

Because two sides don't have an equal number of O atoms. The left side has 6 O atoms (3*2) while the right side has only 1 O atom. to balance the equation, you need an equal number of atoms on both sides.

The Quiver tree grows in Southern Africa. Which of the following plant adaptations is likely to prevent these trees from dying o

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The correct option is Ability to store water in leafy structures to prevent excess evaporation.

Explanation:

Desert plants need to have adaptations so that they can withstand the harsh conditions of the environment. In order to withstand the harsh temperatures of the desert, a quiver tree has leafy structures which help it to store water for long time. In this way, water is prevented to be lost from the tree due to evaporation. Hence, it is an effective adaptation to live in desert conditions.

The Quiver tree also has white powder on is branches to hide from the Sun's rays.

Find percent yield:

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: The percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For $B_5H_9$ :

Given mass of $B_5H_9$ = 4.0 g

Molar mass of $B_5H_9$ = 63.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of }B_5H_9=\frac{4g}{63.12g/mol}=0.0634mol$

For oxygen gas:

Given mass of oxygen gas = 10.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen gas}=\frac{10g}{32g/mol}=0.3125mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of $B_5H_9$ and oxygen gas follows:

$2B_5H_9+12O_2\rightarrow 5B_2O_3+9H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas reacts with 2 moles of $B_2H_5$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will react with = $\frac{2}{12}\times 0.3125=0.052mol$ of $B_2H_5$

As, given amount of $B_2H_5$ is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, oxygen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas produces 5 moles of $B_2O_3$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will produce = $\frac{5}{12}\times 0.3125=0.130moles$ of water

Now, calculating the mass of $B_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of $B_2O_3$ = 69.93 g/mol

Moles of $B_2O_3$ = 0.130 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.130mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }B_2O_3}{69.63g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }B_2O_3=(0.130mol\times 69.63g/mol)=9.052g$

To calculate the percentage yield of $B_2O_3$ , we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of $B_2O_3$ = 8.32 g

Theoretical yield of $B_2O_3$ = 9.052 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of }B_2O_3=\frac{8.32g}{9.052g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of }B_2O_3=91.8\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

belka [17]

In the field of science, usually, the product of an experiment is computed ahead to understand if it reached a specific objective. It would reach greater than 100% of percent yield if the factors include faster reaction rates; proper handling of the reactants, no outside contaminants, and the procedure of the experiment is followed smoothly. It would reach lesser than 100% percent yield if the experiment is not followed, external factors such as contamination from the environment (wind, moisture, etc).
