Which statement is true regarding the formation of ionic bonds?

Which of the following is the most plausible explanation for the fact that the saponification of the triacylglycerol in the pass

aalyn [17]

Answer: The correct option is C (One of the fatty acid salts was unsaturated, and it completely isomerized under the reaction conditions).

Explanation:

Fats and oils belongs to a general group of compounds known as lipids. Fatty acids are weak acid and are divided into two:

--> Saturated fatty acids: These have NO double bonds in their hydrocarbon chain, and

--> Unsaturated fatty acids: These have one or more double bonds in their hydrocarbon chain.

SAPONIFICATION is defined as the process by which fats and oil is hydrolyzed with caustic alkali to yield propane-1,2,3-triol and the corresponding sodium salt of the component fatty acids. During this process, One hydroxide ion is required to hydrolyze one ester linkage of a triacylglycerol molecule. Because there are three ester linkages in a triacylglycerol, three equivalents of sodium hydroxide will be needed to completely saponify the triacylglycerol. This explains the reason why saponification of the triacylglycerol iresulted in four different fatty acid salts.

An unknown compound contains only C , H , and O . Combustion of 4.20 g of this compound produced 10.3 g CO 2 and 4.20 g H 2 O .

vodomira [7]

Answer:

C4H8O

Explanation:

We can get the answer through calculations as follows.

From the mass of carbon iv oxide produced, we can get the number of moles of carbon produced. We first divide the mass by the molar mass of carbon iv oxide. The molar mass of carbon iv oxide is 44g/mol

The number of moles of carbon iv oxide is 10.3/44 = 0.2341

Since there is only one carbon atom in CO2, the number of moles of carbon is same as above

The mass of carbon in the compound is simply the number of moles multiplied by the atomic mass unit. The atomic mass unit of carbon is 12. The mass of carbon in the compound is thus 12 * 0.2341= 2.8091

From the number of moles of water, we can get the number of moles of hydrogen. To get the number of moles of water, we need to divide the mass of water by its molar mass. Its molar mass is 18g/mol. The number of moles here is thus 4.2/18 = 0.2333

But there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in 1 mole of water and thus, the number of moles of hydrogen is 2 * 0.2333 = 0.4667 moles

The mass of hydrogen is thus 0.4667* 1 = 0.4667

The mass of oxygen equals the mass of the compound minus that of hydrogen and that of carbon.

= 4.2 - 0.4667 - 2.8091 = 0.9242

The number of moles of oxygen is the mass of oxygen divided by its atomic mass unit.

That equals 0.9242/16 = 0.0577625 moles

The empirical formula can be obtained by dividing the number of moles of each by the smallest which is that of oxygen

H = 0.4667/0.0577625 = 8

O = 0.0577625/0.0577625 = 1

C = 0.2341/0.0577625 = 4

The empirical formula is thus C4H8O

You have a hypothesis that you can dissolve more sugar in hot water than cold water

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The indepandent variable is wether its hot or cold water, so the tempurature of the water. The dependant variable is how much sugar disolves.

Explanation:

The indepandant variable is what changes or has a direct affect on the depandant. The depandant is what is being mesured or tested.

Can someone please help me!! What are the parts of a Bunsen burner if possible add a picture and name please thanks

borishaifa [10]

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>BUNSEN BURNER:</h2>

Bunsen burner is an instrument which is used as a source of heat using natural gas or petrol. It is used for the heating, sterlization, and combustion. Bunsen burner is named after its inventor Robert bunsen.

<h2>____________________________________</h2><h3>Mechanism:</h3>

Burner provide a single, continuous flame by mixing gas with air in a controlled fashion. The ratio of gas to air that is mixed together can be manually adjusted, allowing the user to control the intensity, temperature, and size of the flame.
