Answer:
Sulfur (Option-C) <span>exhibits chemical behavior similar to that of oxygen.

Explanation:
Sulfur has same chemical properties as that of Oxygen because both of them belongs to same group in the periodic table. Also, the similarity of chemical behaviour among the group members is due to same number of electrons in their valence shells.
For examole, the electronic configuration of Oxygen is,

1s</span>², 2s², 2p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 2) of Oxygen.

Now for Sulfur,
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 3) of Sulfur.

Therefore, both elements tends to gain 2 electrons in a reaction and form O⁻² and S⁻² respectively.

A 125-mL sample of an aqueous solution of the protein ovalbumin from chicken egg white contains 1.31 g of the dissolved protein

Stella [2.4K]

The molar mass of the protein is 45095 g/mol.

The mass of a sample of a chemical compound divided by the quantity, or number of moles in the sample, measured in moles, is known as the molar mass of that compound.

The expression of molar mass of protein is

M₂ = (W₂/P) (RT/V)

Given;

W₂ = 1.31g

P = 4.32 torr = 5.75 X 10⁻³ bar

R = 0.083 Lbar/mol/K

T = 25°C = 298.15 K

V = 125 ml = 0.125 L

Putting all the values in the above formula

M₂= (1.31 g/5.75 X 10⁻³ bar) X (0.083 Lbar/mol/K X 2)/0.125 L)

M₂ = 45095 g/mol

Thus, the molar mass of the protein is 45095 g/mol.

Draw the cis and trans isomers of 2-butene, ch3chchch3. show all hydrogen atoms.

RoseWind [281]

In general chemistry, isomers are two or more elements that have the same number of protons but differ in mass number. In organic chemistry, the compounds are cis or trans isomers if they have the same chemical formula, but differ in the placement of functional groups based on molecular geometry. Cis isomer is when two like functional groups are on the same side of the molecules, while trans isomer is when the like functional groups are on opposite sides.

The cis-trans isomers are shown in the picture. As you can see, in the cis isomer, the methane functional group are both in the same side. Same as well with the hydrogen atoms. On the other hand, these functional groups are opposite to each other in the trans isomer.
