What is an isomer? How many possible isomers of hexane are there? What are the structural differences between these isomers?

Chemistry

lubasha [3.4K]3 years ago
8 0
An isomer is a compound that differs by another based on either the molecular connectivity or how the atoms are connected to each other in the compound, or by stereochemistry usually.

I believe there are total number of 5 isomers for the compound of C6H14. Hexane.

What does the atomic mass describe?
harkovskaia [24]
B., the mass of the nucleus of the atom.
Both the protons and the neutrons are inside the nucleus. The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons, and if you subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass you can find the number of neutrons an atom has. 
So, the mass of the protons plus the mass of the neutrons, which are both inside the nucleus, equals the atomic mass.

A cat that weighs 55 N sits on the top of a cat tree. It is 2 m above a 110N dog. How does the mass of the animals relate to the
Ivahew [28]

*sorry I can't give a full explanation.*

g = 9.8 m/s²

w = m*g

Weight of cat: 55 N = m*9.8

m = 5.61 kg

Weight of dog: 110 N = m*9.8

m = 11.22 kg

There is gravitational potential energy (GPE) acting on the cat since it's at the very top.

GPE of cat = m*g*h = 5.61*9.8*2 = 109.96 J

GPE of dog = m*g*h = 11.22*9.8*0 = 0 J (it's 0 m height because it's on the floor instead of in the tree)

But, if the dog was also 2 m up in the tree, its GPE would be 219.91 J.

As you can see, it's GRAVITATIONAL potential energy is bigger than the cat because it weighs more. Generally, if you were just trying to find the force which is w = m*g (since weight is a force), you would see that the bigger the mass, the bigger the force, and gravity stays the same.

Hope this helped

How many miles are in 0.062500 light seconds (s)?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

11625 miles

Explanation:

A second of light is the distance that light travels in a second. It has a value of 299792458 kilometers or if we do the unit conversion, 186,000 miles. A mile is 1.609 kilometers

Let's make a rule of three:

1 light s travels a distance of 186000 miles

0.062500 light s would travel a distance of (0.062500 . 186000) = 11625 miles

What is the density of a piece of wood that has a mass of 35.0 grams and a volume of 26.4 cm3
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

We have the final answer as

<h2>1.33 g/cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>density =  \frac{mass}{volume}</h3>

From the question

mass = 35 g

volume = 26.4 cm³

The density of the wood is

density =  \frac{35}{26.4}  \\ 1.325757575757...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.33 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

water is 2 parts of hydrogen and 1 part oxygen. for one molecule of water each atom has the atomic mass unit, u,shown. what perc
fomenos

Answer:

11.19 %

Explanation:

1 molecule water = 2 H + 1 O

If H = 1.008 u and O = 16.00 u, then

Water = 2H + 1 O = (2 × 1.008 u) + (1 × 16.00 u) = 2.016 u + 16.00 u = 18.02 u

The formula for mass percent is

\% \text{ by mass} = \frac{\text{Mass of H}}{\text{Total mass}} \times 100 \%

So,

\%\text{ H} = \frac{\text{2.016 u}}{\text{18.02 u}} \times 100 \% = 11.19 \%
