Answer: acetone is a ketone and not an aldehyde. Therefore it's false
Explanation:
Acetone is of structure CH3-CO-CH3
which makes it a ketone.
Both aldehyde and ketone have a carbonyl group but there is difference between aldehyde and ketone.
Aldehydes have a general formula R-CHO
where R is a methyl group including H atom, and CHO is the functional group.
While
Ketone have the general formula R-CO-Ri
where R and Ri are methyl groups excluding H atom, and CO is the functional group.
Hint: ketones usually end with the suffix "one" as in acetone.
12.8 mole of CO2 from the combustion
Answer:
7.
Explanation:
A neutral solution has a pH=7.
A basic solution has a pH>7.
An acidic solution has a pH<7.
Fluorine 20 (F - Atomic number 9 and atomic mass 20). Firstly we need to know what is beta decay. Beta decay occurs when one neutron changes into a proton and an electron therefore the atomic mass will remain the same as even though we loose a neutron it is replaced by a proton, the atomic number is always raised by 1 when one beta decay occurs. The produced electron is shot out of the nucleus at an incredible speed. This speedy electron we call a beta particle.
Ok now the reaction.
20 20 0
F -> Ne + e
9 10 -1
Remember the atomic number determines the nature of the element ( i.e what elemnt it is).
Hope this helps :).
