Answer:

a. acetal

Explanation:

In the presence of an acid, the alcohol molecules are aided to form a bond with the aldehydes in both two dimensional geometry and as a result of this bond formation an acetal forms.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Acetals are geminal-diether derivatives of aldehydes or ketones, formed by reaction with two equivalents (or an excess amount) of an alcohol and elimination of water. Ketone derivatives of this kind were once called ketals, but modern usage has dropped that term.

To achieve effective hemiacetal or acetal formation, two additional features must be implemented. First, an acid catalyst must be used because alcohol is a weak nucleophile and second the water produced with the acetal must be removed from the reaction.

A single serving bag of snack chips contains 65.0 Cal. Assuming that all of the energy from eating these chips goes toward keepi
AveGali [126]

Answer:

= 62.1 hours

Explanation:

Energy provide by the serving is 65 cal

= 65 cal  × 4.184 Kj = 271.96 kJ

271.96 KJ = 271960 J

Energy required for 1minute of energy

= 73 x 1

= 73 J/min

So, 271960 joules will be required for 271960 heart beat

Minutes = 271960 / 73

= 3593.94 minutes  

Time in hours = 3725.429 / 60

= 62.1 hours

What is the volume occupied by 4.20 miles of oxygen gas (O2) at STP
Drupady [299]

Answer: 94.13 L

Explanation: In STP in an ideal gas there is a standard value for both temperature and pressure. At STP,pressure is equal to 1atm and the temperature at 0°C is equal to 273.15K. This problem is an ideal gas so we use PV=nRT where R is a constant R= 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K.

To find volume, derive the equation, it becomes V=nRT/P. Substitute the values. V= 4.20 mol( 0.08205L.atm/mol.K)(273.15K) / 1 atm = 94.13 L. The mole units, atm and K will be cancelled out and L will be the remaining unit which is for volume.

The expected o-c-h angle in this molecule is degrees. the expected hybridization at the central carbon is
WINSTONCH [101]

Each neutral carbon atom contains four valence electrons and may form up to four electron domains. Possible hybridizations include

  • sp^{3}, four electron domains, as in ethane \text{C}_2\text{H}_6
  • sp^{2}, three electron domains, as in ethene \text{C}_2\text{H}_4
  • sp, two electron domains, as in ethyne \text{C}_2\text{H}_2

Molecules of each of the three hybridization demonstrate spatial configurations that would maximizes the separation between the electron domains.

  • Carbon atoms with a sp^{3} hybridization would demonstrate a tetrahedral configuration with a bond angle of approximately 109.5\textdegree{}
  • Carbon atoms with a sp^{2} hybridization would demonstrate a triangular planar configuration with a bond angle of 120\textdegree{}
  • Carbon atoms with a sp hybridization would demonstrate a linear configuration with a bond angle of 180\textdegree{}

Bond angles are characteristic of the spatial configuration of electron domains and identifies the hybridization of the central carbon atom.

Note that each hydrogen atom contains only one valence electron and would form only single bonds. It takes two valence electrons for oxygen atoms to achieve an octet such that each oxygen form only two bonds at a single time. Therefore given the fact that the carbon is bonded to both hydrogen and oxygen, only the following hybridizations are possible

  • sp^{3} in which the oxygen atom forms a carbon-oxygen double bond with the central carbon atom;
  • sp^{2} in which the oxygen atom forms a single bond with the central carbon atom and with a second atom.
