The believe that all objects are made up of atoms states that an atom is the smallest part of an objects and can be broken down no further than a single atom so the atom it self can be considered indivisible because it can't be broken down any further than that.... hope that helped

Atoms arent indivisible. Atoms consist of protons, electrons, neutrons, & quarks & a whole bunch of subatomic particles.

Answer:

4.21

Explanation:

use Avogadro's number

6.023 x 10^23

multiply this by 7 because you want to find 7 moles :

6.023 x 10^23 x 7 = 4.21

The C=C bond in 2-cyclohexenone produces an unusually strong signal. Explain using resonance structuresBased on the above resona

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

When two single single bonds separated by a double bond (e.g C=C-C=C or C=C-C=O in the case of 2-cyclohexenone), the effect of resonance among those there bonds will be observed.

Explanation:

Since the Oxygen atom has higher electronegativity, it will cause the electrons in the resonance bonds 'flow' toward the Oxygen atom, so that the C=C will 'lose' some electron. The signal read for that bond will be different from other alkene structure.

Attachment is the resonance structure of 2-cyclohexene.
