Answer:

Methylethanoate with the molecular formula; CH₃- CO₂-CH₃

Explanation:

The Molecular formula of the given compound CH₃ - CH₂- COOH is called propanoic acid. Molecular formula expresses the exact number and kinds of atoms of the elements present in the molecule of a compound. Propanoic acid is the second compound in the group of carboxylic acids. The certain similarities these carboxylic acids posses is due to the functional group - COOH. Functional groups is the categorization of atoms within molecules that possess their own certain characteristics which makes them distinct from other functional groups.

The molecular formula which represents an isomer of the given compound CH₃ - CH₂- COOH is called Methylethanoate with the molecular formula; CH₃- CO₂-CH₃

Isomers are existence of two or more compounds with the same exact molecular formula but with different molecular structures due to the difference in the arrangement of atoms or spatial orientation of atoms.

a doctor's order is 0.125 g of ampicillin. the liquid suspension on hand contains 250 mg/5.0 ml. how many milliliters of the sus

disa [49]

0.125 g=(0.125 g)(1000 mg/1g)=125 mg.

Then, we need 125 mg of ampicillin.
5 ml of liquid suspension contains 250 mg of ampicilling , therefore:

5 ml----------------250 mg of ampicilling
x--------------------125 mg of ampicilling

x=(5 ml * 125 mg of ampicilling) / 250 mg of ampicilling=2.5 ml

Answer: we require 2.5 ml

Why krypton and noble gas are not used in airships using the periodic table?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Since the noble gases are unreactive or inert, they are safe to use. Helium is used to fill balloons and airships, because it is much lighter that air and it will not catch fire. Neon is used in advertising signs. It will give red glow, but the color can be changes by mixing it with other gases.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The particles that compose a gas are so small compared to the distances between them that the volume of the individual particles can be assumed to be negligible.

Explanation:

This is a postulate of the Kinetic Molecular Theory.

A is wrong. KMT assumes the that the volume of the particles is negligible.

B is wrong. KMT assumes that the distance between the particles is muck greater than their size.

D is wrong. It takes the large distances as a fact. KMT uses this as an assumption.
