Answer:
- <u>C₂H₄</u> (option number 4)
Explanation:
A hydrocarbon with a <em>double bond</em> in its carbon skeleton is an alkene and has the general form:
-
.
This is, the number of hydrogen atoms is twice the number of carbon atoms.
On the other hand, alkanes have only single bonds, and the compounds with a triple bond in its carbon skeleton are alkynes.
Review each choice:
1) <u>C₃H₈:</u>
- In this case, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2×3 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8, which is corresponds to an alkane, not an alkene.
2)<u> C₂H₆</u>
- For this, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2 × 2 + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6. Again an alkane, not alkene.
3) <u>CH₄</u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 1 × 2 + 2 = 4 ⇒ an alkane
4) <u>C₂H₄ </u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 = 4. This is precisely the relation for an alkene, so this is the hydrocarbon that has a double bond in its carbon skeleton.
- The chemical formula may be writen as CH₂ = CH₂, to show the double bond.
So, this is the correct answer.
5) <u>C₂H₂</u>
- Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2. This relation of carbon and hydrogen atoms corresponds to a compound with triple bond, i.e an alkyne: CH≡CH.

Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, when considering weak acids which have an associated percent dissociation, we first need to set up the ionization reaction and the equilibrium expression:
Now, by introducing x as the reaction extent which also represents the concentration of both H+ and A-, we have:
Thus, it is possible to find x given the pH as shown below:
So that we can calculate the initial concentration of the acid:
Therefore, the percent dissociation turns out to be:
