2 answers:

8 0

They are used as starting materials in the syntheses of alcohols, plastics, laquers, detergents, and fuels. The most important alkenes for the chemical industry are ethene, propene and 1,3-butadiene.

Answer:

By far the most important use of alkenes is in the making of plastics as plastics are used in almost everything.

Explanation:

Alkenes themselves aren't used much in everyday life however Alkenes are very important to industrial synthesis as it is relatively easy to turn them into other things.

Alkenes can be turned into polymers or plastics through addition reactions and the most common ethene is turned into everything from plastic bags to bottles.

Alkenes can also be turned into alcohols. most commonly propene is used as a feedstock to produce butanol and other products useful in industry or for production

Give five examples of structures with this formula (c6h12). at least one should contain a ring, and at least one should contain

hammer [34]

Answer: -

Following are five examples of structures with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂

Compound A is Hexene.

Compound B is 2-Hexene.

Compound C is 3-Hexene.

Compound D is Cyclohexane.

Compound E is Methylcyclopentane.

As we can see Hexene, 2- Hexene and 3-Hexene all have double bonds.

Cyclohexane and Methylcyclopentane contains a ring.

Arrange the following elements in order of increasing ionization energy

Gnoma [55]

Ionization Trend: First ionization energy will increase left to right across a period and increase bottom to top of a family (column).

A) Sr, Be, Mg are all in column 2 of the periodic table. Based on the first ionization rule above, from increasing to decreasing energy, the order is: Be, Mg, Sr

B) Bi, Cs, Ba are all in the same row of the periodic table. Based on the first ionization rule above, from increasing to decreasing energy, the order is: Bi, Ba, Cs

C) Same rule as above. Order is: Na, Al, S

The equilibrium constant for the formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen is 1.6 × 102. what is the form of the equilibri

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: The expression for equilibrium constant is $\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$

Explanation: Equilibrium constant is the expression which relates the concentration of products and reactants preset at equilibrium at constant temperature. It is represented as $k_c$

For a general reaction:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The equilibrium constant is written as:

$k_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

Chemical reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

$N_2+3H_3\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3$

$k_c=1.6\times 10^2$

Expression for $k_c$ is:

$k_c=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$

$1.6\times 10^2=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$
