Answer: condenstation.

Justification:

The polymerization by condensation is a well know chemical reaction in which two monomers ("small" molecules), each with (at least) two functional groups, combine and relase water as by-product. Actually, even if the by-product released is not water, yet the reaction is called condenstation, since the mechanism is basically the same.

An example of such reaction is the manufacturing of nylon 6,6, which is produced from adipic acid and 1,6-diamine hexane:

HOOC - [CH₂]₄ - COOH + nH₂N - [CH₂]₆ - NH₂ → - nylon - + nH₂O

I omitted the formula of nylon because it is large, and that is not the core of the question but the fact the kind of reaction: two molecules combine to form is a larger molecule, and water is released

What is the average atomic mass (in amu) of element M?

valkas [14]

An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. In imprecise terms, one AMU is the average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.

an ideal gas is at a pressure 1.00 x 10^5 N/m^2 and occupies a volume 11.00 m^3. If the gass is compressed to a volume of 1.00 m

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$P_2=1.1x10^6Pa$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can solve this problem by applying the Boyle's law which allows us to understand the pressure-volume behavior as a directly proportional relationship:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

In such away, knowing the both the initial pressure and volume and the final volume, we can compute the final pressure as shown below:

$P_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}$

Consider that the given initial pressure is also equal to Pa:

$P_2=\frac{1.00x10^5Pa*11.00m^3}{1.00m^3}\\ \\P_2=1.1x10^6Pa$

Which stands for a pressure increase when volume decreases.

Regards.

. A current through a horizontal powerline flows in west to east direction. What is the direction of magnetic field at a point,

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

c) parallel to the wire

Explanation:

The concept is based on right-hand thumb rule that states that the thumb points in the direction of the current and the fingers will represent the direction of the lines of magnetic force.

As the current is moving in the east-west direction. Using the right-hand thumb rule, the direction of the magnetic field at a point below the wire is from north to south. So, when viewed from the west end, the magnetic field at a point will be anti- clockwise.

Hence, the correct answer is "b) anti- clockwise".
