Answer:

3-ethyl-2-methylhexane

Explanation:

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

  • Select the longest possible carbon chain.
  • For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
  • A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
  • If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.
  • <u>The numbers are separated by the comma and the number and the letter are separated by the hyphen.</u>

Hence, the given name is:- 3ethyl2methylhexane

By using the last rule, the correct name is:-

<u>3-ethyl-2-methylhexane</u>

Balancing Chemical Equation<br> Na+Br2=NaBr
solniwko [45]

Answer:

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Explanation:

In order to balance a chemical equation you make the make sure both sides have the same number of atoms on each side, you do this by multiplying on both sides as if it was a algebraic equation.

Na+ Br2 = NaBr

Na × 2 = Na2

Na × 2 = Na2

Br × 2 = Br2

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Hope this helps.

Is it possible for the equivalence point of a titration to not be at pH 7? Explain your answer.
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>The reason it will be 7 for some titrations is that when you  titrates a strong acid with a strong base for example  HCl and NaOH the salt formed is conjugate base of strong acid and will be a very weak base
 That means that it cannot produce any OH^-1 and all the H+ has been converted to water.The only source of H+ or OH is water with a Ka of 10^-14 so the pH = -log [H+]=-log 10^-7 = 7 
second reason is 
When you titrates a weak acid with strong base at equivalence point 
only a water solution of the conjugate base exists 

CH3COOH + NaOH ----- Na+ CH3COO^-1 + H2O 
Since the conjugate base is the conjugate base of a weak acid it will hydrolyze in water like so 
for instance Na+ CH3COO^-1 + HCl---- CH3COOH + NaCl the equivalence point will be way BELOW 7 and in the case of above will be less than 5. So pH of 7 at equivalence point is only reached in strong acid strong base titrations.
hope this helps</span>

How much heat is required to change 100 g of ice (H2O) at 253 K to vapor (steam) at 393 K?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The heat required will be 58.604 kJ.

<u>Explanation: </u>

To calculate the amount of heat required, we use the formula:

Q= m\times c\times \Delta T

Q= heat gained  or absorbed = ? J

m = mass of the substance = 100 g

c = heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g ° C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=(393-253)K=140K=140^oC

Q=100g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times 140^oC

Q = 58604 Joules  = 58.604 kJ     (Conversion factor: 1 kJ = 1000J)

Thus, heat released by 100 grams of ice is 58.604kJ.
