Answer : The correct option is, 2-ethylpentane

Explanation :

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are :

First select the longest possible carbon chain.
For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
The numbering is done in such a way that first carbon of double bond gets the lowest number.
If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

Hence, the name for given compound will be, 2-ethylpentane and the structure are shown below.

An electrochemical cell is constructed using two half-cells: Al(s) in Al(NO2)3(aq) and Cu(s) in Cu(NO3)2(aq). The two half cells

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq)

Explanation:

The standard reduction potential (E°) is the energy necessary to reduce the atom in a redox reaction. When an atom reduces it gains electrons from other than oxides. As higher is E°, easily it will reduce. The substance that reduces is at the cathode of a cell, where the electrons go to, and the other that oxides are at the anode of the cell.

The standard reduction potentials from Al(s) and Cu(s) are, respectively, -1.66V and +0.15V, so the half-cell of Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) is the cathode.

What is a limitation of using a chemical formula, such as C6H12O6, to represent a compound?

Kaylis [27]

The chemical formula does not show how the atoms are connected to one another.
When we write the chemical formula of any substance, we are not able to understand the spatial arrangement of that substance's atoms. This is extremely important in organic compounds, which exhibit different physical characteristics as well as different chemical characteristics due to the way their atoms are arranged in space. These isomers are known as enantiomers.

How many moles of CF4 can be produced when 8.95 mol C reacts with 7.88 mol F2?

Molodets [167]

The remaining moles of C is 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.

<h3>Reaction between Carbon and Fluorine </h3>

The reaction between carbon and Fluorine is given as;

C + 2F₂ -------> CF₄

1 : 2 1

from the reaction above,

2 moles of F₂ requires 1 mole of C

7.88 mole of F₂ will require: 7.88/2 = 3.94 moles of C and 3.94 moles of CF₄.

The remaining moles of C = 8.95 - 3.94 = 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.

Vanillin (used to flavor vanilla ice cream and other foods) is the substance whose aroma the human nose detects in the smallest

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Cost to supply enough vanillin is $3.2\$$

Explanation:

Threshold limit of vanillin in air is $2.0\times 10^{-11}g$ per litre means there should be $2.0\times 10^{-11}g$ of vanillin in 1L of air to detect aroma of vanillin.

$1ft^{3}=28.32L$

So, $5.0\times 10^{7}ft^{3}=(5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)L$

So amount of vanillin should be present to detect = $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g$

As cost of 50 g vanillin is $112\$$ therefore cost of $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g$ vanillin = $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32\times 112)\$ = 3.2\$$
