Answer:

All carbons in the carbon skeleton contain the maximum number of hydrogen atoms

Explanation:

Saturated fats are class of compounds having all the fatty acids containing only single bonds. In other words, carbon skeleton has only single bonds.

Unsaturated compounds undergoes hydrogenation to form saturated fats.

In hydrogenation, hydrogen atoms are added to the carbon attached to double bond. After become saturated, no more hydrogen atoms can be added.

Therefore, it can be said that in saturated fats all carbons in the carbon skeleton contain the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.

Using the VSEPR theory , what would the representation mean A central atom with 2 connected atoms atom with I lone pair of Jone
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The molecule has a bent geometry

Explanation:

Let us look again at the principles of VSEPR theory. The shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

Lone pairs distort the molecular geometry away from what is expected on the basis of VSEPR theory.

The molecule described in the question has the form AEX2. Two substituents and one lone pair form three electron domains around the central atom. The expected geometry is trigonal planar but the observed molecular geometry is bent because of the lone pairs present.

29.5 g of mercury is heated from 32°C to 161°C, and absorbs 499.2 joules of heat in the process. Calculate the specific heat cap
Finger [1]

Answer:

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of mercury = 29.5 g

Initial temperature = 32°C

Final temperature = 161°C

Heat absorbed = 499.2 j

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT  = T2 - T1

ΔT  = 161°C - 32°C

ΔT  = 129 °C

Q = m.c. ΔT

c = Q / m. ΔT

c = 499.2 j / 29.5 g. 129 °C

c =  499.2 j / 3805.5 g. °C

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

Identify the following as either a chemical symbol or a chemical formula. CO Co W Be HI
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

CO is the chemical formula for carbon monoxide.

Co is the chemical symbol for cobalt.

W is the chemical symbol for tungsten.

Be is the chemical symbol for beryllium.

HI is the chemical formula for hydrogen iodide.

Explanation:

Chemical symbols are either written as a single uppercase letter (ex. O) or an uppercase letter and a lowercase letter (ex. Na).

Chemicals can be anything else! For example CO or even somthing like LiIO.

Which of these Group 14 elements has the most metallic properties? 1. C 2. Ge 3. Si 4. Sn
seraphim [82]
I would say that the answer is Sn.
C-is a non-metal
Ge-is a metalliod (consists both non-metal and metal)
Si -is a metalloid
Sn- is a pure metal
