Hexane and 2-methylpentane. If you draw the structures out, you can see that both isomers have 6 carbon atoms and 14 hydrogen atoms. Hence they have the same molecular formula but a different structural formula. I suggest drawing the compounds out for these types of questions to visualise it.

Answer: hexane and 2-methyl pentane

Explanation:

The compounds having similar molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms or groups in space are called isomers and the phenomenon is called as isomerism.

Structural isomers are molecules with the same molecular formula but different arrangements of atoms and thus different structures.

Hexane and 2-methyl pentane have the same number of carbon and hydrogen atoms, so they have same molecular formula of C_6H{14} but their structures are different.

One way to determine the degree of saturation of a solid-liquid solution is to drop a crystal of the solute into the solution.
Dafna1 [17]

The answer is D: Saturated.

A saturated solution is one in which the exact maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.  So, new solute will not dissolve in the solution.  In contrast, an unsaturated solution can hold more solute, so if that option were correct, the crystal would have dissolved.

The other two terms are a bit more complicated.  A supersaturated solution is one holding an amount of solute above the sustainable limit.  Because of that, when more solute is added, the solution will immediately adjust, and some solute will come out of solution in a precipitate.  Because the crystal isn't growing, we can eliminate this option.

A concentrated solution is one holding a relatively large amount of solute.  However, you can have concentrated solutions that are saturated and unconcentrated (the word for this is dilute) solutions that aren't saturated.  Therefore, we can say that because the crystal doesn't dissolve, this solution is saturated, but we can't say with certainty that it is concentrated.

Because the first three options are invalid, as described above, while the scenario does describe a saturated solution, D is the correct answer.

What is the overall energy transformation in a coal-fired power plant?.
polet [3.4K]

Answer: When coal is burned, chemical potential energy is transformed into thermal energy, light energy, and sound energy. Only the thermal energy is used for electricity production. Light and sound energy dissipate into the environment, immediately reducing efficiency.

Hope this helps.
