Chemistry
1 answer:
natali 33 [55]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The product from the reduction reaction is

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

IUPAC name; 3- Methylpentan-1-ol

Explanation:

Since oxidation is simply the addition of oxygen to a compound and reduction is likewise the addition of hydrogen to a compound.

Therefore, hydrogen is added onto the carbon atom adjacent to oxygen in 3- methyl pentanal

CH3 CH2 CHCH3 CH2 CHO thereby -CHO( aldehyde functional group) are reduced to CH2OH ( Primary alcohol) which gives;

3-methylpenta-1-ol .

The structure of the product is:

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

The amount of energy required to heat water for a 10-minute shower (50 gallons) is 2.2125 kJ. How many calories is this
Alenkinab [10]
First, we convert the given amount of energy into joules.
1 kJ = 1000 joules
2.2125 kJ = 2,212.5 Joules

Each kilocalorie contains 4,184 Joules
Kilocalories = 2,212.5 / 4,182
Kilocalories = 0.529
1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories

0.529 kilocalories = 529 calories

A sample of gas occurs 9.0mL at a pressure of 500mmHg. A new volume of the same sample is at 750mmHg. Use two significant figure
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

V₂ = 6.0 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 9.0 mL

Initial pressure = 500 mmHg

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 750 mmHg

Solution:

According to Boyle's Law

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

V₂ = 500 mmHg × 9.0 mL / 750 mmHg

V₂ = 4500 mmHg .mL / 750 mmHg

V₂ = 6.0 mL

How is fiber important to the body?
ale4655 [162]
Dietary fiber increases the weight and size of your stool and softens it. A bulky stool is easier to pass, decreasing your chance of constipation. If you have loose, watery stools, fiber may help to solidify the stool because it absorbs water and adds bulk to stool. Helps maintain bowel health.

More efficient plumbing reduces water pollution by _______. a. using more water b. using less water c. using cleaner water d. us
Aliun [14]

Answer:

b. using less water

Explanation:

Pollution can be defined as the physical degradation or contamination of the environment through an emission of harmful, poisonous and toxic chemical substances.

In the United States of America, the agency which was established by US Congress and saddled with the responsibility of overseeing all aspects of pollution, environmental clean up, pesticide use, contamination, and hazardous waste spills is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Also, EPA research solutions, policy development, and enforcement of regulations through the resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

In homes and offices, an effective and efficient design of pipes and other water-related facilities would go a long way to reduce water pollution because the water used are well managed and properly disposed into sinkholes.

Hence, more efficient plumbing reduces water pollution by using less water
