Answer:

A. The carbons share three pairs of electrons in ethyne and only two pairs in ethene

Explanation:

Both ethene and ethyne are hydrocarbons i.e. they contain C and H.

Ethene belongs to the alkene series with a formula C2H4. Here the carbon atoms are linked together via a double bond and carbon and hydrogens are linked via a single bond.

Ethyne belongs to the alkyne series with a formula C2H2. The C atoms are linked by a triple bond and carbon and hydrogens are linked via a single bond.

Since each bond constitutes a pair of electrons, accordingly the carbons share three pairs of electrons in ethyne and only two pairs in ethene.

The correct answer is A. The carbons in ethyne share three pairs of electrons which makes it an alkyne while in ethene only two pair of electrons are being shared by the two carbon atoms. In other words, ethyne contains a triple bond while ethene contains a double bond.

What is the density of carbon dioxide gas if 0.196g occupies a volume of 100mL?
-BARSIC- [3]

We know that the equation for density is:

D=\frac{m}{V}

where D is the density, m is the mass in grams, and V is the volume.

Given two of the variables, we can then solve for density:

D=\frac{0.196g}{100mL}= \frac{0.00196g}{mL}

So therefore, we now know that the density of carbon dioxide gas is 0.00196g/mL.

An iron chloride compound contains 55.85 grams of iron and 106.5 grams of chlorine. What is the most likely empirical formula fo
mart [117]

Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}

What effect does rapid exhalation of CO2 during exercise have on the concentration of H2CO3 in the blood?
BARSIC [14]

If there is a constant loss of CO_{2}~(carbon~dioxide) the concentration of H_{2} CO_{3}~(carbonic~acid) will be affected and decrease since CO_{2} is a main component of H_{2}CO_{3}.


Hope it helped,

When the volume of a gas is
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

THE NEW VOLUME OF THE GAS IS 406 mL WHEN THE TEMPERATURE CHANGES FROM 765 K TO 315 K.

Explanation:

When the temperature changes from  765 K to 315K, the volume has changed from 986 mL to?

V1 = 986 mL = 0.986 L

T1 = 765 K

T2 = 315 K

V2 = unknown

Using Charles' equation of gas laws;

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

Making V2 the subject of the formula:

V2 = V1 T2 / T1

V2 = 0.986 * 315 / 765

V2 = 0.406 L

V2 = 406 mL

So therefore, the volume of a gas changes from 986 mL to 406 mL as a result of a change in temperature from 765 K to 315 K.
