<span>The correct answer is option 1. It is the carbon (C) atom that can bond with each other to form ring and chain structures in compounds. These ring and chain structures and compounds are called organic compounds. Chain structures include alkanes, alkenes, alkynes. Ring structures include cyclic hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons.</span>

Answer: Option (1) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Carbon atoms are able to combine with its atoms resulting in formation of long chains. This property of carbon is known as catenation. Whereas carbon atom also has the property to combine with other atoms and results in the formation of long chains or rings.

On the other hand, oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine does not form long chains or rings.

Thus, we can conclude that carbon is the element whose atoms can bond with each other to form long chains or rings.

Express the concentration of a 0.0390 M aqueous solution of fluoride, F–, in mass percentage and in parts per million. Assume th

mart [117]

<span>ppm = mg/L
or
Kg solution Mass % = Mass of Solute/Mass of solution

0.0390 M = x moles/1L
x = 0.0390 Moles of F-
0.0390 mol x 18.998403 g/mol = 0.7409 g

PPM:
1mg = 1000g
0.7409g = 740.9mg
740.9mg/1L = 740.9mg

Mass Percent:
density 1 g/mL
thus
1 g = 1 mL
thus 1 L = 1 kg
thus 1 L = 1000 g
so,
(0.7409 g/1000 g)*100
= 0.07409% (m/m)</span>

Why do we use anticides

UkoKoshka [18]

Antacids neutralise the acid made by your stomach. They are commonly used in conditions where it is helpful to neutralise the acid made in the stomach. For example, for acid reflux which causes heartburn. Most people who take antacids do not develop any side-effects.

Describe three different samples that can be used to test for poisons? What are the advantages and disadvantages of these sample

Gemiola [76]

Answer: Three samples that can be used to test for poisons are blood samples, hair samples, and gastric contents samples.

Advantages of hair samples area is that it can indicate past exposure to toxins or poisons and also provide information on how long the exposure has been going on. Poisons can sometimes be detected in hair for long periods of time. The advantages of gastric contents samples area is it shows whether the poison was digested or not. An advantage of blood samples is that it’s the most useful toxicological samples. The disadvantage of hair samples is that the results can be tainted by external sources. The disadvantage of gastric content samples is that it doesn’t always show which toxin was digested. The disadvantage of blood samples is if taken near or from the heart it may have artificially high levels of toxins that wouldn’t reflect the amount distributed throughout the body at the time of death.
