<u>Answer:</u> The correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane

<u>Explanation:</u>

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

  • 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.
  • 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.

We are given:

An alkane having chemical name as 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane. This will not be the correct name of the alkane because the longest possible carbon chain has 7 Carbon atoms, not 6 carbon atoms

The image of the given alkane is shown in the image below.

Hence, the correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane

Magnesium reacts steadily with hydrochloric acid
balu736 [363]

Magnesium + Hydrocloric acid -> Magnesium chloride + hydrogen

You can observe a single displacement reaction

"Describe to show that the has formed is hydrogen"

I don't know what you mean. I can show the chemical equation though.

Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) --> MgCl 2(aq) + H 2(g)

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The boiling point decreases as the volume decreases.

Explanation:

The Temperature - Volume law otherwise called as Charles law is applied, which says that the volume of the given gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature measured in Kelvin. As the volume increases, the temperature also increases, if the volume decreases, then the temperature also decreases.

As per the Charles law, here the volume is decreased from 50 ml to 25 ml so the boiling point also decreases.

The Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, Canada is reported to have the largest tides in the world with high tide and low tide occurring
topjm [15]

The rate in m/s is 5.2 * 10^-4 m/s.

<h3>What is the rate in m/s?</h3>

We know that the speed is given as the ratio of the distance covered to the time taken. In this case, we have been told that the rate at which the tide rises is 6.08 ft per hour. We would now need to convert the rate from  6.08 ft per hour to m/s.

Now;

We know that;

1 foot/hour = 8.5 * 10^-5 m/s

6.08 ft per hour = 6.08 ft per hour * 8.5 * 10^-5 m/s/1 foot/hour

= 5.2 * 10^-4 m/s
