Answer: saturated

Explanation:

Saturated hydrocarbons are defined as the hydrocarbons in which a single bond is present between carbon and carbon atoms. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is $C_nH_{2n+2}$ .

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are defined as the hydrocarbons which have double or triple covalent C-C bonds. They are known as alkenes and alkynes respectively. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is $C_nH_{2n}$ and $C_nH_{2n-2}$ .

The given compound is $C_3H_8$ belongs to formula $C_nH_{2n+2}$ where n=3 and thus a saturated hydrocarbon.

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Why some elements are radioactive (unstable). When the atoms of an element have extra neutrons or protons it creates extra energy in the nucleus and causes the atom to become unbalanced or unstable. Whether radioactive elements can become stable and if so, how. The unstable nucleus of radioactive atoms emit radiation.

Calculate the molar solubility of fe(oh)2 in pure water. (the value of ksp for fe(oh)2 is 4.87×10−17.)

rosijanka [135]

When we have this balanced equation for a reaction:
Fe(OH)2(s) ↔ Fe+2 + 2OH-

when Fe(OH)2 give 1 mole of Fe+2 & 2 mol of OH-
so we can assume [Fe+2] = X and [OH-] = 2 X
when Ksp = [Fe+2][OH-]^2
and have Ksp = 4.87x10^-17
[Fe+2]= X
[OH-] = 2X
so by substitution
4.87x10^-17 = X*(2X)^2
∴X^3 = 4.8x10^-17 / 4
∴the molar solubility X = 2.3x10^-6 M
