Answer:

a) The carbon-carbon bonds rapidly alternate between single and double bonds.

Explanation:

In benzene we have that the molecule is planar with an sp² hybridization that allow for three π bonds and the carbons atoms are also bonded together via sigma  a sp² hibridization as well as one hydrogen atom. The alternation of or conjugation of the π bond allow the delocalization of these electron along the whole ring.

Therefore, a) is false the carbon-carbon bonds rapidly alternate between single and double bond. The electrons in the π bonds are completely delocalized through the six atoms in the ring.

b) is true since we have a sp² hybridization.

c) and d) are true for the reasons given previously.

Which statement describes what happens when somebody slaps their hand on a wall?
laiz [17]

Answer:

B. Wall applies equal reaction force on hand

Explanation:

This is newton's third law. You push something, that something pushes you back with same force. The direction is opposite, so if I push a wall, the wall pushes me back with same force just in opposite direction (so wall towards me). This is why option A is incorrect b/c it says force in same direction as wall. C and D talk about unequal force which is incorrect.

A person suffering from hyponatremia has a sodium ion concentration in the blood of 0.116 M and a total blood volume of 4.7 L .
klemol [59]

Explanation:

Normal moles of Na^{+} = volume × normal concentration

                              = 4.7 × 0.139 = 0.6533 mol

Moles of Na^{+} in hyponatremia blood = volume × hyponatremia concentration

                              = 4.7 × 0.116 = 0.5452 mol

Moles of NaCl to be added = moles of extra Na^{+} needed

                            = 0.6533 mol - 0.5452 mol = 0.1081 mol

Mass of NaCl = moles × molar mass of NaCl

                        = 0.1081 mol × 58.443

                        = 6.317g

                        = 6.32 g (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that mass of sodium chloride would need to be added to the blood is 6.32 g.

Which member of the alkali metals has the highest
natulia [17]

Answer:

E)Li

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract a pair of bonding electrons. In the periodic table, electronegativity increases across the period and decrease down the group.

This means the element at the top of the group would have the highest electronegativity.

The correct option is;

E)Li

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

 · Air decolorization makes use of chromophores’ instability on oxygen to decolorize the oil by air-oxidizing pigments. For example, the carotenoid and chlorophyll in the oil are very unstable because of their structure, which is easy to be discolored under the action of oxygen. However, air decolorization leads to thermal oxidation of the oil, too.
