Terms in this set (28) Explain how knowledge of chemistry can be a more informed citizens? Knowledge of chemistry and other sciences can help you evaluate the data presented, arrive at an informed opinion, and take appropriate action.
I believe the major periodic trends include; electronegativity, ionization energy, electron affinity, atomic radius, melting point, and the metallic character. Periodic trends, arising from the arrangement of the periodic table, provide chemists with an invaluable tool to quickly predict an element's property.
Answer: The answer is D. This has a Carboxylic Acid group, and is acetic acid, or Ethanoic Acid.
ALWAYS LOOK for the Functional Group in question.
A. Would likely not stay in water, or at least not be acidic, for it is butane gas.
B. Is 1-propanol, and alcohols are not acidic as a rule. Certainly not in water.
C. This is an Ether. It will not give up an H+, it it not an acid.
E. This functional group is an amine, which is more “base” like, since the lone pairs of the Nitrogen atom would tend to attract a H+.
Answer:
A network solid or covalent network solid is a chemical compound (or element) in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network extending throughout the material.
