If steel (a metal) is hard and granite (a nonmetal) is hard, why don’t we make automobile engines out of granite?

Which represents the balanced nuclear equation for the beta plus decay of C-11?

slavikrds [6]

Nuclear reaction: ¹¹C → ¹¹B + e⁺(positron) + ve(electron neutrino).
Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.
There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.

Identify the atomic orbitals in the C-C sigma bond in ethyne (acetylene HC-triplebond-CH)

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

A sigma bond is formed when a hybrid orbital sp overlaps with another hybrid orbital or with s- or p- orbital

Ethylene has a structural formula of H - C≡ C- H

At the ground state; we have :

C | ⇅ | |↑ | ↑

2s 2p

At the excited state, we have:

C | ↑ | |↑ | ↑ | ↑

the hybrid orbital

C = | ↑ | ↑ |

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n

artcher [175]

Stoichiomety:

1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2

multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights

Atomic or molar weights:

C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol

Stoichiometry:

12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2

Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen

And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.

You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.

May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.

Given the following Fischer projection: Fischer projection for an entantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine

harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stereoisomers are two or more atoms that have the same bonding order of atoms but there is a difference spatial arrangement of the atoms in space.

A plane of symmetry divides a molecule into two equal halves.

A chiral stereoisomer are not superimposed on a mirror image , Hence they do not posses a plane of symmetry.

As a result to that. these non-superimposable mirror images are said to be Enantiomers.

However, a Fischer Projection emanates from a two - dimensional figure which is used for presenting a three - dimensional organic molecules.

From the given question;

Fischer projection for an enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine oriented horizontally to the left and the hydroxide group oriented horizontally to the right.

we can sketch the way the enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal can be seen like the one shown below:

CH₂OH

|

Br -------------|----------------OH

|

CHO

The objective of this question is to drawn the perspective formula of the molecule.

So , from the attached file below; we can see the perspective formula of the molecule in a well structured 3-D format.
