How are the IUPAC molecular naming system and the zoological taxonomic naming system similar and how are they different?

Well the IUPAC naming system is for naming organic compounds in chemistry whereas the taxonomic hierarchical naming system is for classifying and naming species of organisms and finding relationships in terms of physical characteristics. The only way I'd say that they're similar is in the way they actually name the compound/species. E.g, in chemistry, you always have a base name and to that base name you can add a suffix and/or prefix(es). And in biology, you always have the first bit of the me which is the generic name and the second bit of the name which is the specific name. I know this probably wasn't very helpful but this is a very odd question if it's one that would be in an exam because chemistry and biology wouldn't usually be mixed together...

Answer:

The similarity between the IUPAC naming and the zoological taxonomic nomenclature is that both are used for naming and providing identity.

The difference between the IUPAC naming and the zoological taxonomic nomenclature system is that the IUPAC naming is the process of naming the chemical compounds. These names are published in the Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry (Blue book). On the other hand, the zoological taxonomic naming system is used for naming the animals. The International Code of Zoological Naming has published many research works related to zoological naming.

lorasvet [3.4K]

In a food chain we arrange the energy in the form of a pyramid.

The producers are on the base of pyramid and then consumers are towards peak.

in the given food chain grass is being eaten by grasshopper which are food of birds.

Grasshoppers are also eaten up by Hawks. so both brids and hawks are feeding upon grasshoppers thus the amount of energy transferred from the grass to the grasshopper is the same as the amount of energy transferred from the grasshopper to the bird.

If you knew the number of valence electrons in a nonmetal atom how would you determine the valence of the element. (Ignore hydro
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity

Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago

Explanation:

All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.

Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)

For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1

Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.

Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.

For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.

A person walking covers 5.20 m in 10.4 s. How fast is the person moving?
salantis [7]

Answer:

<h2>0.50 m/s</h2><h2></h2>

Explanation:

Velocity = distance over time

where distance = 5.20 m

                   time = 10.4 s.

velocity = <u>  5.20  m </u>

                  10.4 s.

            = 0.50 m/s

The vapor pressure of a substance is measured over a range of temperatures. A plot of the natural log of the vapor pressure vers
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

28.7664 kJ /mol

Explanation:

The expression for Clausius-Clapeyron Equation is shown below as:

\ln P = \dfrac{-\Delta{H_{vap}}}{RT} + c

Where,

P is the vapor pressure

ΔHvap  is the Enthalpy of Vaporization

R is the gas constant (8.314×10⁻³ kJ /mol K)

c is the constant.

The graph of ln P and 1/T gives a slope of - ΔHvap/ R and intercept of c.

Given :

Slope = -3.46×10³ K

So,

- ΔHvap/ R = -3.46×10³ K

<u>ΔHvap = 3.46×10³ K × 8.314×10⁻³ kJ /mol K = 28.7664 kJ /mol</u>

<u></u>
