2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid is unlikely to produce 2-Methyl-3-butanone upon strong heating.
Upon heating, the β ketoacid becomes unstable and decarboxylates, leading to the formation of the methyl ketone.
A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (C(=O)OH) attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO2H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group.
Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids. Deprotonation of a carboxylic acid gives a carboxylate anion.

The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ---> 16CO₂ + 18H₂O
stoichiometry of octane to CO₂ is 2:16
number of C₈H₁₈ moles reacted - 191.6 g / 114 g/mol = 1.68 mol
when 2 mol of octane reacts it forms 16 mol of CO₂
therefore when 1.68 mol of octane reacts - it forms 16/2 x 1.68 = 13.45 mol of CO₂
number of CO₂ moles formed - 13.45 mol
therefore mass of CO₂ formed - 13.45 mol x 44 g/mol = 591.8 g
mass of CO₂ formed is 591.8 g
The volume (in mL) of methylergonovine the nurse should draw up in the syringeis is 0.25 mL
<h3>What is density? </h3>
The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as
Density = mass / volume
With the concept of density, we can obtain the volume of methylergonovine. Details below
<h3>How to determine the volume </h3>
The following data were obtained from the question:
- Mass = 0.2 mg
- Density = 0.8 mg/mL
- Volume =?
Density = mass / volume
Cross multiply
Density × volume = mass
Divide both sides by density
Volume = mass / density
Volume = 0.2 / 0.8
Volume = 0.25 mL

Answer:
Examples of storage polysaccharides - <u>starch and glycogen</u> and structural polysaccharides - <u>cellulose and chitin</u>
Explanation:
Polysaccharides are the complex carbohydrate polymers, composed of monosaccharide units that are joined together by glycosidic bond.
In other words, polysaccharides are the carbohydrate molecules that give monosaccharides or oligosaccharides on hydrolysis.
The examples of storage polysaccharides are starch and glycogen. The examples of structural polysaccharides are cellulose and chitin.
Neptune: its the 8th planet and since Pluto isn't a planet anymore Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun with a distance of around 2.8 billion miles (4.5 billion km) or (30.07 AU)
