Carbohydrates are substances that are found in foods such as bread and pasta, which provide the body with heat and energy. Chemically, carbohydrates are made of three kinds of elements namely carbon , hydrogen and oxygen.

Carbohydrates are separated into two main categories, simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrates.  

Simple carbohydrates are those that contain one or two sugar molecules linked together. Complex carbohydrates are those that contain  three or more sugar molecules linked together. In some cases these chains can contain hundreds of sugar molecules.

romanna [79]

Answer:1-methoxy-2,4-dinitrobenzene

Explanation:

The nitro groups are strongly electron withdrawing and promote nucleophilic substitution reactions where one of the original substituents is removed and replaced by a strong nucleophile such as the methoxy group. The mechanism of the reaction is attached below. The electron withdrawing nitrogroup assists the formation of the intermediate in the reaction as shown.

2C4H10 + 13O2 Right arrow. 8CO2 + 10H2O<br><br> What is the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide?
Zielflug [23.3K]

2C4H10 + 13O2 Right arrow. 8CO2 + 10H2O

What is the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide?

ANSWER:

Butane is an organic compound with the formula C4H10 and carbon dioxide is compound (gas) with the formula CO2. So, the balanced coefficient of butane is 2, and that of carbon dioxide is 8. According to thid, the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide is 2:8 or 1:4.

The class measured the density of a copper block to be 8.6 +/-0.2 g/cm3 at the 95% confidence interval with a standard deviation
mezya [45]

Answer: kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Measured density of copper block:

8.6+/-0.2 g/cm3

True density = 8.96g/cm3

Standard deviation = 0.4g/cm

a. What is the high and low number of the confidence interval range?

High : 8.6 + 0.2 g/cm3 = 8.8g/cm³

Low : 8.6 - 0.2 g/cm3 = 8.4g/cm³

Does the true value fall within the confidence interval? NO

Actual density = 8.96g/cm³ doses not lie in between (8.4 - 8.8)g/cm³

B.) High and low of the standard deviation range?

High = 8.6 + 0.4 = 9.0g/cm³

Low = 8.6 - 0.4 = 8.2g/cm³

Value falls within range of the true density value of copper block.

8.96g/cm³ falls in-between (8.2-9.0)g/cm³

Which of the following is correct concerning Hess's law?
Margaret [11]
I believe the correct answer would be that t<span>he change in enthalpy can be found by adding the enthalpies of the individual thermochemical reactions of a chemical reaction.</span> In Hess' Law, enthalpy is independent of the mechanism of the reaction. The enthalpy should be the sum of all the changes in the reaction.

A solution is prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.16 M HCl and 0.52 M HNO3. (Assume that volumes are additive.)
slega [8]

Answer:

The pH of the final solution is 0.16 .

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

Concentration of HCl = 0.16 M

HCl(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

HCl is a string acid .1 molar of HCl gives 1 molar of of hydrogen ions.

[H^+]=0.16 M

Concentration of HNO_3 = 0.52 M

HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq)+NO_{3}^-(aq)

Nitric is a string acid .1 molar of nitric acid gives 1 molar of of hydrogen ions.

[H^+]'=0.52 M

Total hydrogen ion concentration:

[H^+]''=[H^+]+[H^+]'

=0.16 M+0.52 M=0.68 M

The pH of the solution:

\pH=-\log[H^+]''=-\log[0.68 M]

pH = 0.16

The pH of the final solution is 0.16 .
