5 0

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a fatty acid contains high number of double bonds then its unsaturation will also be high and hence, it will consume greater number of equivalents of hydrogen.

In corn oil, there are no unsaturated sites are present.

In olive oil, there is one unsaturated site with majority of oleic acid. In olive oil, there are more than 70% of total unsaturated oils.

In lard oil, there are around 60% of unsaturated oils.

In herring oil, there are highest number of saturated fatty acids and lowest polyunsaturated acids.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, olive oils would consume the greatest number of equivalents of hydrogen when subject to catalytic hydrogenation.

The sodium-potassium exchange pump
trapecia [35]

Answer: The correct answer is option E

Explanation:

Sodium/potassium pump is a mechanism that involves the movement of sodium ions (Na+) out of a cell and potassium ions (K+) into a cell, thereby regulating concentration of ions on both sides of a typical cell membrane.

In this situation, the sodium-potassium pump is usually helps in the establishment of the resting potential. The potassium voltage channels normally closes before the membrane potential is brought to a resting level.

In summary, sodium/potassium pump helps to maintain a balance in the system.

Which of the following gases experience the greatest degree of deviation from ideal behavior under high pressures and low temper
xz_007 [3.2K]

A) CH4

In general, methane reactions are difficult to control. Partial oxidation to methanol, for example, is a rather difficult reaction because the chemical reactions that occur continue to form carbon dioxide and water even though the amount of oxygen available is insufficient.

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon in the form of gas with the chemical formula CH4. Pure methane does not smell, but if used for commercial purposes, a bit of sulfur is usually added to detect leaks that might occur.

Methane is a greenhouse gas. Methane is used in chemical industrial processes and can be transported as frozen liquids (liquefied natural gas, or LNG).

Methane is a major component of natural gas, around 87% of volume.

Methane is not toxic, but is highly flammable and can cause explosions when mixed with air.

As the temperature of one of the four liquids increases, the vapor pressure will
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

a) increase exponentially.

Explanation:

The vapor pressure is depend only on temperature.

The vapor pressure of liquid does not depend upon amount of liquid. For example whether the liquid is 50 g or 30 g its vapor pressure will remain same according to the temperature.

The temperature and vapor pressure have exponential relationship. As the temperature of liquid increases its vapor pressure also goes to increase. When the temperature of liquid goes to decrease its vapor pressure also decreases.

The change in vapor pressure of substance when temperature changes is given as,

ln P₂/P₁ = ΔH(va)/R (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)
