I believe it's the second option. 2 or more elements joined together such that the elements have lost their individual identity in favour of a new set of properties.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When two or more different atoms are bonded together either by sharing or donating electrons then it results in the formation of a new product which exhibit different properties as compared to its parent atoms. This new product is known as compound.

For example, 2Na^{+} + CO^{2-}_{3} \rightarrow Na_{2}CO_{3}

Therefore, Na_{2}CO_{3} will have different properties as compared to sodium and carbonate ions.

Thus, we can conclude that the term "compound" mean two or more elements joined together such that the elements have lost their individual identity in favor of a new set of properties.

How many moles are in 1.2x10^3 grams of ammonia, NH3?
KonstantinChe [14]
I don't have a calculator with me right now, but that mass would be 1200 grams. Divide the given amount of grams by the molar mass of NH3, which is 17.031g/mol. (Nitrogen + 3(hydrogen)). Again, sorry I didn't have a calculator. But all you would need to do is divide 1200 by 17.031. If you need to use sig figs, your answer should have 2 because the 1.2 x 10^3 limits your amount of sig figs.

Are alcohols with more than one hydroxyl group attached to a carbon sequence.
Darya [45]

Answer:

Polyhydroxyl alcohols

Explanation:

Whenever we have several C-OH bonds, we have a polyhydroxyl alcohol. For example, if we have just one alcohol group, that is, an R-OH group, then the naming is simple, say, we have EtOH, it's ethanol.

The problem becomes more complicated when we have several hydroxyl groups present in the alcohol. Let's say we have an ethane molecule and we replace the hydrogen atoms of carbon 1 and 2 with hydroxyl groups. In that case, we have 1,2-ethanediol. Similarly, we can have triols etc.

That said, we have poly (several) hydroxyl groups and we can generalize this to having polyhydroxyl alcohols.
