Alkanes do not have a double bond, thus they are saturated. This makes them the simplest form of hydrocarbon, containing only hydrogen and carbon atoms. They are not very reactive as they don't have a double bond which can open up and join on to other molecules.

Answer:

A related group of hydrocarbons is called the alkynes. These are unsaturated hydrocarbons that possess one or more triple-carbon bonds. They follow the same naming rule as the alkanes.

Electrons must be able to flow through a material in order for the material to conduct

djverab [1.8K]

The molecular structure of the solids has lower ability to conduct electricity due to tight holding by nucleus.

<h3>Why molecular solids are poor conductors?</h3>

Molecular solids are also poor conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are tightly held by the nuclear charges present in the nucleus while on the other hand, Metals are good electrical conductors in the solid form due to the presence of free electrons that helps in the conduction of electricity.

Find the equation of directrix of the parabola is given by 64x equals to -ySquare

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Given equation of parabola is

and

=64x ......(i)

The point at which the tangent to the curve is parallel to the line is the nearest point on the curve.

On differentiating both sides of equation (i), we get

2 y

d y

=64

⇒

d y

and

Also, slope of the given line is −

∴−

and

⇒and=−24

From equation (i), (−24)

=64x⇒x=9

∴ the required point is (9,−24)

. how many lone pairs of electrons are present in the lewis structure of calcium sulfide?

miv72 [106K]

Answer:
<u>Four</u>

Explanation:
Calcium Sulfide is an ionic compound made up of Ca²⁺ and S²⁻.
Ca²⁺ is formed as,

Ca → Ca²⁺ + 2 e⁻

These two electrons are accepte by Sulfur as,

S + 2 e⁻ → S²⁻

So, before accepting 2 electrons S was having six valence electrons, after accepting two electrons from Ca it has 8 electrons which are present in four pairs as shown below,
