Answer:

The answer to your question is 126.1°C

Explanation:

                  Boiling point         Difference of boiling points  

C₃H₈             - 42.1°C

C₄H₁₀             -   0.5°C                 41.6 °C

C₅H₁₂               36.1°C                  36.6°C                       41.6 - 36.6 = 5°C          

C₆H₁₄               68.7°C                 32.6°C                        36.6 - 32.6 =4°C

C₇H₁₆               98.4°C                 29.7°C                        32.6 - 29.7 = 2.9°C

We can observe on the table that the difference of boiling points diminishes 1°C when the hydrocarbon has one more carbon, then the difference of temperature between the hydrocarbon of 8 carbons and the hydrocarbon of 7 carbons must be 2°C.

So, this difference is 29.7°C - 2°C = 27.7°C.

And the boiling point of octane is approximately 98.4 + 27.7°C = 126.1°C

A student uses a solution of 1.2 molar sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to calculate the concentration of a solution of sulfuric acid (H2
Mila [183]

From the calculations, the concentration of the acid is 0.24 M.

<h3>What is neutralization?</h3>

The term neutralization has to do with a reaction in which an acid and a base react to form salt and water only.

We have to use the formula;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CAVANB =CBVBNA

The equation of the reaction is; 2NaOH + H2SO4 ----> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

CA = ?

CB = 1.2 M

VA =  50 mL

VB = 20 mL

NA = 1

NB = 2

CA = CBVBNA/VANB

CA = 1.2 M * 20 mL * 1/ 50 mL * 2

CA = 0.24 M

Compounds in alcoholic beverages that enhance flavor and appearance but may contribute to hangover symptoms are called:_____.
olga_2 [115]

Compounds in alcoholic beverages that enhance flavor and appearance but may contribute to hangover symptoms are called congeners.

<h3>Alcoholic beverages:</h3>

Congeners are compounds that add to the flavor, smell, and appearance of most alcoholic beverages. These substances may make hangover symptoms worse. Because they contain fewer congeners than whiskey, brandy, and red wine, clear alcoholic beverages like gin and vodka have less of a hangover-inducing effect.

The impact of ethanol, or the alcohol in your drinks, is the primary contributor to a hangover. It is a poisonous substance that acts as a diuretic in the body, which causes you to urinate more frequently and increases the likelihood that you will become dehydrated. The incidence and intensity of hangovers are both increased by congeners, substances created during the digestion and maturation of alcohol.

A brick has dimensions of 15 cm x 6.0 cm x 12 cm. What is the volume of the brick in cubi meters?
Likurg_2 [28]
Convert all of the units from centimeters to meters by moving the decimal point over to the left two digits.

0.15 m x 0.06 m x 0.12 m

Volume = length x width x height
             = 0.15 x 0.06 x 0.12 = 0.00108 m^3
