Answer:2500-3300cm^{-1}

Explanation:We can distinguish between 2-butanone and butanoic acid by analyzing the spectra .                                          

The structure of the two compounds are slightly different as butanoic acid has an OH group whereas for 2-butanone there is no OH group present.

Please refer the attachments for structure of compounds.

Both the compounds will show carbonyl stretching frequency at around 1700-1750cm^{-1}[/tex] due to the presence of carbonyl group in both the compounds.

A broad intense peak at around 3000cm^{-1} will be observed only for butanoic acid due to the presence of OH group and 2-butanone would not show any broad intense peak at around 3000cm^{-1}.

So by analyzing the IR spectra and identifying the intense broad peak of OH we can easily distinguish between butanoic acid and 2-butanone.

Due to hydrogen bonding in between two carboxylic acid molecules ,peak broadening for OH group in butanoic acid takes place.

Generally the ketones show IR stretching in around 1700-1730cm^{-1}[/tex] due to the presence of carbonyl group.

Generally carboxylic acids show IR stretching  for carbonyl group at around 1700-1760cm^{-1}[/tex] and a broad intense peak for OH at around 2500-3000cm^{-1}[/tex].

A block of metal has a volume of 14.0in3 and weighs 5.16 lb .
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The density of metal block in grams per cubic centimeter is 10.70 g/cm³.

Given,

Mass of metal block = 5.16 lb  

1 lb = 453.592 g

5.26 lb = 2340.536 g

The volume of metal block = 14 in 3

1 in = 2.5 cm

1 in 3 = 15.625 cm³

14 in 3 = 218.75 cm³

Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance. Or, it is the ratio of mass to the volume of the substance.

As we know,

Density = mass/volume

Or, density = 2340.536 / 218.75

Or, density = 10.70 g/cm³

Therefore, the density of the metal block is 10.70 g/cm³.

Glucose and hexanoic acid each contain six carbon atoms, but they have completely different properties. Glucose is a nutrient fo
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Functional groups.

Explanation:

Functional groups are the specific substituents present within the molecules which are responsible for characteristic chemical properties the molecule shows.

Glucose contains alcohol and aldehyde group while hexanoic acid contains carboxylic acid group. <u>The presence different types of the functional groups in both the compounds results in the difference in the properties of both the compounds.</u>

In 1869 he published a table of the elements organized by increasing atomic mass.

Mendeleev is called the "father of the modern periodic table

stated that if the atomic weight of an element caused it to be placed in the wrong group, then the weight must be wrong. (He corrected the atomic masses of Be, In, and U)

was so confident in his table that he used it to predict the physical properties of three elements that were yet unknown.

After the discovery of these unknown elements between 1874 and 1885, and the fact that Mendeleev's predictions for Sc, Ga, and Ge were amazingly close to the actual values, his table was generally accepted.

However, in spite of Mendeleev's great achievement, problems arose when new elements were discovered and more accurate atomic weights determined.
