Answer:

OCO

Another way of writing CO₂

Explanation:

A reaction equation has reactants on the left and products on the right.

The reactants are carbon and oxygen. The product is carbon dioxide.

C + O₂ → CO₂

You might see the equation both ways.

C + O₂ → OCO

C + O₂ in the products would mean no reaction has occurred. The problem can solid carbon can burn in oxygen, so a reaction will occur. For no reaction, you would put "NR" in the products.

OCO is the structural way of writing CO₂. Both have one carbon atom (C) and two oxygen atoms (O).

C + 2O is not possible. Oxygen, if alone, has to be at least O₂ because it's a diatomic molecule.

Water's ability to dissolve a wide variety of molecules is important, but more important is the hydrophobic effect, which drives

Sliva [168]

Answer:

d. Hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other.

Explanation:

The term “hydrophobic effect” is associated with the spontaneous tendency of macromolecules, such as proteins, to prefer a conformation in an aqueous medium, with hydrophobic groups facing the interior of the mac romolecule, favoring attractive intramolecular interactions, and hydrophilic groups exposed on the surface, for maximize interactions with water molecules in the medium. This is because the hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other, allowing them to turn inward.

A pycnometer is a precisely weighted vessel that is used for highly accurate density determinations. Suppose that a pycnometer h

dexar [7]

Answer:

5.758 is the density of the metal ingot in grams per cubic centimeter.

Explanation:

1) Mass of pycnometer = M = 27.60 g

Mass of pycnometer with water ,m= 45.65 g

Density of water at 20 °C = d = $998.2 kg/m^3$
