Answer :

Total carbons are in the structure = 13

Primary carbons are in the structure = 5

Secondary carbons are in the structure = 6

Tertiary carbons are in the structure = 1

Quaternary carbons are in the structure = 1

Explanation :

Primary carbon : It is a carbon atom that is bound to only 1 carbon atom.

Secondary carbon : It is a carbon atom that is bound to 2 carbon atom.

Tertiary carbon : It is a carbon atom that is bound to 3 carbon atom.

Quaternary carbon : It is a carbon atom that is bound to 4 carbon atom.

As we are given the name of compound is, 2,2-dimethyl-4-propyloctane.

In this compound, eight carbon are align in a straight line, two methyl group are attached at 2nd position of the carbon in main chain and a propyl group that is three membered carbon chain is attached at 4th position of the carbon in main chain.

The given compound skeletal structure is shown below.

A ____________ star would have the hottest surface temperature.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Blue

Explanation:

If you look at a flame, blue is always at the bottom right? So that would be common sense that blue would be the hottest.

A sound wave is traveling at 331 m/s and has a frequency of 126 Hz. What is the wavelength?

damaskus [11]

<h2>Answer</h2>

2.626984127 m

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

You have to know the equation that relates wavelength, frequency, and velocity (it's like speed but a bit different).

v = f x λ

where:

v = velocity

f = frequency

λ = Wavelength

Rearrange to make λ subject:

λ = v / f

We've been given 331 as the speed, 126 as the frequency. Sub it into the equation:

331 / 126 = 2.626984127 m

When 0.49 g of a molecular compound was dissolved in 20.00 g of cyclohexane, the freezing point of the solution was lowered by 3

IRISSAK [1]

Answer: The molecular mass of this compound is 131 g/mol

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point:

$\Delta T_f=i\times k_f\times \frac{w_2\times 1000}{M_2\times w_1}$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ = depression in freezing point = $3.9^oC$

$k_f$ = freezing point constant = $20.8^0C/m$

m = molality

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

$w_2$ = mass of solute = 0.49 g

$w_1$ = mass of solvent (cyclohexane) = 20.00 g

$M_2$ = molar mass of solute = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$(3.9)^oC=1\times (20.8^oC/m)\times \frac{(0.49g)\times 1000}{M_2\times (20.00g)}$

$M_2=131g/mol$

Therefore, the molar mass of solute is 131 g/mol

Which of the following is NOT true of white dwarfs?

liq [111]

Answer:

A white dwarf is what stars like the Sun become after they have exhausted their nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, this type of star expels most of its outer material, creating a planetary nebula. Only the hot core of the star remains. ... That means a white dwarf is 200,000 times as dense.

Explanation:

they are cold

they are about the size of Earth

these both are not true
