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.

In order to reduce the exposure to organic solvents like turpentine, some art instructors recommend the students clean brushes a
kykrilka [37]
Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.

To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.

24g of methane were burned in an excess of air. What mass of water would be produced in the reaction assuming complete combustio
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

54g of water

Explanation:

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of methane produce 2 moles of water.

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of methane in order to find the moles of methane added. With the moles of methane and the chemical equation we can find the moles of water produced and its mass:

<em>Molar mass CH₄:</em>

1C = 12g/mol*1

4H = 1g/mol*4

12g/mol + 4g/mol = 16g/mol

<em>Moles methane: </em>

24g CH₄ * (1mol / 16g) = 1.5 moles methane

<em>Moles water:</em>

1.5moles CH₄ * (2mol H₂O / 1mol CH₄) = 3.0moles H₂O

<em>Molar mass water:</em>

2H = 1g/mol*2

1O = 16g/mol*1

2g/mol + 16g/mol = 18g/mol

<em>Mass water:</em>

3.0moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>54g of water</h3>

How is the weathering of rocks by water different from the weathering of rocks by ice?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

It is because water is liquid and it can be weathered easily. While weathering by solid is a bit dangerous because of its hardness.
