<u><em>on the basis of the reaction of heat in plastic , their are two types of plastics : </em></u>

<h2><u><em>Thermoplastic & Thermosetting plastics </em></u></h2>

<u><em>Thermoplastics : Plastics which easily get deformed (become soft )on heating and also get bend easily are known as thermoplastics . </em></u>

<u><em>examples :  polythene , polyvinyl  chloride and polystyrene .</em></u>

<u><em>thermosetting plastics : plastics which once moulded into a shape do not become soft on heating and cannot be moulded again are called thermosetting plastics .</em></u>

<u><em>examples : bakelite , melamine and formica</em></u>

How many chiral centers does clavulanic acid have?
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Clavulanic acid has two (2) chiral centers.

Explanation:

A chiral center is a center (usually carbon) with four different substituents.

The structure of clavulanic acid is shown in the attachment below.

Consider the labeled diagram in the attachment,

Carbon A is not a chiral carbon because it has two hydrogen atoms attached to it

Carbon B is not a chiral carbon because it has only three substituents

Carbon C is a chiral carbon because it has four different substituents

Carbon D is a chiral carbon because it has four different substituents

Carbon E is not a chiral carbon because it has only three atoms directly attached to it

Carbon F is not a chiral carbon because it has only three atoms directly attached to it

Carbon G is not a chiral carbon because it has two hydrogen atoms attached to it

Carbon H is not a chiral carbon because it has only three substituents

Then, only carbons C and D are chiral carbons.

Hence, clavulanic acid have two (2) chiral centers.

use the heisenberg uncertainty principle to calculate the uncertainity in meters in the position of 0.68g and traveling at a vel
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

7.7439×10⁻³¹ m

Explanation:

The expression for Heisenberg uncertainty principle is:

\Delta x\times \Delta v=\frac {h}{4\times \pi\times m}

Where m is the mass of the microscopic particle

h is the Planks constant

Δx is the uncertainty in the position

Δv is the uncertainty in the velocity

Given:

mass = 0.68 g = 0.68×10⁻³ kg

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Δx= ?

Applying the above formula as:

\Delta x\times 0.1=\frac {6.62\times 10^{-34}}{4\times \frac {22}{7}\times 0.68\times 10^{-3}}

<u>Δx = 7.7439×10⁻³¹ m</u>
