Answer:

Functional groups.

Explanation:

Functional groups are the specific substituents present within the molecules which are responsible for characteristic chemical properties the molecule shows.

Glucose contains alcohol and aldehyde group while hexanoic acid contains carboxylic acid group. <u>The presence different types of the functional groups in both the compounds results in the difference in the properties of both the compounds.</u>

Use the data in the table above to calculate an approximate ΔH∘ in kilojoules for the synthesis of hydrazine from ammonia:
ankoles [38]
DeltaH formation = deltaH of broken bonds - deltaH of formed bonds

Broken bonds: tiple bond N-N and H-H bond
Formed bonds: N-H and N-N bonds

You also have to take note of the molar coefficients

deltaH formation = <span> [(N≡N) + 2 * (H-H)] - [4 * (N-H) + (N-N)] 
                           = (945 + 2*436) - (4*390 + 240)
                            = 17 kJ/mol

The answer is 17 kJ/mol.</span>

Fumaric acid, which occurs in many plants, contains, by mass, 41.4% carbon, 3.47% hydrogen, and 55.1% oxygen. The molecular mass
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

C = 41.4/12 = 3.43

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

O = 55.1/16 =3.44

CHO is the skeletal formula (divide each by the lowest number above). The results are close enough to 1 to be 1.

(CHO)_x = 116

C + H + O = 29

(29) _ x = 116

x = 116/29

x = 4

So there area 4 carbons 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens.

The correct formula is C4H4O4
