A long chain of hydrocarbon bonded to COOH is a FATTY acid.
prisoha [69]4 years ago
6 0

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A fatty acid is defined as a long chain of hydrocarbons that consists of a carboxylic group, that is, COOH group at the end of the chain.

General formula of a fatty acid is R-(CH_{2})_{n}-COOH where n is mostly an even number in many cases.

Fatty acids are also known as aliphatic monocarboxylic acid.

For example, C_{17}H_{35}COOH is the formula of stearic acid which is a fatty acid.

Thus, we can conclude that a long chain of hydrocarbon bonded to cooh is a fatty acid.

What is the difference between Mixtures and Compounds? I am trying to study for my Science quiz on Tuesday, and I need to know t
Deffense [45]
A mixture can be separated.  Everything in a mixture keeps it's own properties and are not chemically joined together.  I am not completely sure about the compound.  Although with the cake example, the ingredients have been mixed and kind of "fused" together upon baking. Hope this helps a little. (P.S. trail mix is a good example of a mixture.)

Briefly explain in your own words why the bond angle increases as the number of electron groups decreases
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

i) The bond angle decreases due to the presence of lone pairs, which causes more repulsion on the bond pairs and as a result, the bond pairs tend to come closer. ii) The repulsion between electron pairs increases with an increase in electronegativity of the central atom and hence the bond angle increases.

describe in general terms an experiment to determine the molal freezing point depression constant kf of water. Assume the availa
Dvinal [7]
A solution (in this experiment solution of NaNO₃) freezes at a lower temperature than does the pure solvent (deionized water). The higher the solute concentration (sodium nitrate), freezing point depression of the solution will be greater.
Equation describing the change in freezing point: 
ΔT = Kf · b · i.
ΔT - temperature change from pure solvent to solution.
Kf - the molal freezing point depression constant.
b -  molality (moles of solute per kilogram of solvent).
i - Van’t Hoff Factor.
First measure freezing point of pure solvent (deionized water). Than make solutions of NaNO₃ with different molality and measure separately their freezing points. Use equation to calculate Kf.

A satellite and a hockey puck are alike because they illustrate Newton's first law of motion.
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

It would be True

Explanation:

Because they both have the same push of gravity. Gravity affects all objects equally. If you drop an egg and a watermelon at the same time they would both collide with the floor at the same time.
