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>

When 0.040 mol of propionic acid, c2h5co2h, is dissolved in 750 ml of water, the equilibrium concentration of h3o+ ions is measu
WITCHER [35]
Answer is: Ka for propanoic acid is 6,57·10⁻⁵.
Chemical reaction: C₂H₅COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₂H₅COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).
n(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,04 mol.
V(C₂H₅COOH) = 750 mL = 0,75 L.
c(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,04 mol ÷ 0,75 L.
c(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,053 mol/L = 0,053 M.
[C₂H₅COO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 1,84·10⁻³ M = 0,00184 M.<span>
[HCN] = 0,053 M - 0,00184 M = 0,0515 M.
Ka = [</span>C₂H₅COO⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [C₂H₅COOH].
Ka = (0,00184 M)² / 0,0515 M.
Ka = 6,57·10⁻⁵.

The molar mass of argon is 40 g/mol. what is the molar mass of a gas if it effuses at 0.91 times the speed of argon gas?
Gemiola [76]
To determine the molar mass of the unknown gas, we use Graham's Law of Effusion where it relates the effusion rates of two gases with their molar masses. It is expressed as r1/r2 = √M2/M1. We calculate as follows:
Let 1 = argon gas      2 = unknown gas
r2 = 0.91r1r1/r2 = 1/0.91
1/0.91 = √M2/M1 = √M2/40M2 = 48.30 g/mol
