Answer:

C6H14 < C6H13Br < C6H13OH < C6H12(OH)2

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the solubility in water is related with the presence of polar bonds in the given molecules we can see that C6H12(OH)2 has the presence two O-H bonds which promote the highest solubility via hydrogen bonds as well as the C6H13OH but in a lower degree as only on O-H bond is present. Next since the bond C-Br in is slightly close to the polar bond C6H13Br rather than the C-C bonds only had by C6H14 we can infer that C6H13Br is more soluble in water than C6H14, therefore the required order is:

C6H14 < C6H13Br < C6H13OH < C6H12(OH)2

Whereas C6H12(OH)2 is the most soluble and C6H14 the least soluble in water.

Best regards.

Which reactions are oxidation-reduction reactions? check all that apply. fes(s) 2hcl(aq) â†’ h2s(g) fecl2(g) agno3(aq) nacl(aq)

Dafna1 [17]

oxidation-reduction reactions are -

2C3H6(g) + 9O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)
Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO2(g)

For reaction,

2C3H6(g) + 9O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

On reactant side:

Oxidation state of Carbon = +2

Oxidation state of Oxygen = 0

On product side:

Oxidation state of Carbon = +4

Oxidation state of Oxygen = -2

Here, carbon's oxidation state is rising from +2 to +4. As a result, it is oxidizing and the oxygen's oxidation state is decreasing from 0 to -2. As a result, it is decreasing.

For reaction,

Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO2(g)

When reacting:

Iron's oxidation state is +3.

Carbon's oxidation state is +2.

On product side:

Iron's oxidation state is zero.

Carbon's oxidation state is +4.

Here, carbon's oxidation state is rising from +2 to +4. As a result, it is being oxidized and the iron's oxidation state is changing from +3 to 0. As a result, it is decreasing.

What rules should you follow when adding and subtracting ?

wariber [46]

Adding and subtracting with scientific notation may require more care, because the rule for adding and subtracting exponential expressions is that the expressions must havelike terms. Remember that to be like terms, two expressions must have exactly the same base numbers to exactly the same powers. Thinking about decimal arithmetic, the requirement that we have the same powers makes sense, because that guarantees that all of the place values are lined up properly.
