Answer:

Answer is C₈H₁₄

Explanation:

The general molecular formula of alkanes (saturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

Where n = number of carbon atoms.

The general molecular formula of alkenes (unsaturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ

The general molecular formula of alkynes (unsaturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ₋₂

Now let us check the formula of given compounds

a)C₅H₁₂

n = 5

2n=10

2n+2=12

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

b)C₇H₁₆

n = 7

2n=14

2n+2=14

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

c)C₆H₁₄

n = 6

2n=12

2n+2=14

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

d) C₈H₁₆

n = 8

2n=16

2n+2=18

2n-2=14

so this is an alkyne, unsaturated hydrocarbon.

(4) C8H14 is your answer. A saturated hydrocarbon means that they have no double or triple bonds. C8H14 is an alkyne, which is an unsaturated hydrocarbon.

blagie [28]

We are given that 1 teaspoon is equivalent to 5 mL, therefore 0.75 teaspoon is:

0.75 teaspoon * (5 mL / 1 teaspoon) = 3.75 mL

 

So the mass is density times volume:

mass = (12.5 mg/5 ml) * 3.75 mL

<span>mass = 9.375 mg</span>

How do you figure out how many valence electrons an element has?
Alik [6]
It's how many are in the element's outer layer. The layers go: 2, 8, then 8.

Ex-6 electrons. 1 layer is 2, the next layer has 4 left. If that layer holds 8, you can do 8-4 and it has 4 valence electrons.

Ex-10 electrons. 1 layer is 2, the next layer has 0 left. It has 8 valence electrons because the outermost layer is full with 8.

ex-11 electrons. 1 layer is 2, the next layer is full as well. 2+8=10; it has 1 left. So that element has only one valence electron.
