How come there is only 3 C5H12 isomers?

That's because the first and last carbon atoms cannot be branched to form an isomer . Therefore only the three middle carbon atoms can form isomers.

The temperature of a sample of water changes from 10°C to 20°C when the water absorbs 100 calories of heat. What is the mass of
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

10 g

Explanation:

Right from the start, just by inspecting the values given, you can say that the answer will be  

10 g

.

Now, here's what that is the case.

As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of that substance by  

1

∘

C

.

Water has a specific heat of approximately  

4.18

J

g

∘

C

. This tells you that in order to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

1

∘

C

, you need to provide  

4.18 J

of heat.

Now, how much heat would be required to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

?

Well, you'd need  

4.18 J

to increase it by  

1

∘

C

, another  

4.18 J

to increase it by another  

1

∘

C

, and so on. This means that you'd need

4.18 J

×

10

=

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

.

Now look at the value given to you. If you need  

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

, what mass of water would require  

10

times as much heat to increase its temperature by  

10

∘

C

?

1 g

×

10

=

10 g

And that's your answer.

Mathematically, you can calculate this by using the equation

q

=

m

⋅

c

⋅

Δ

T

 

, where

q

- heat absorbed/lost

m

- the mass of the sample

c

- the specific heat of the substance

Δ

T

- the change in temperature, defined as final temperature minus initial temperature

Plug in your values to get

418

J

=

m

⋅

4.18

J

=

If you had 15 molecules of H2 and an unlimited supply of N2, how many
Masja [62]

Answer:

10 molecules of NH₃.

Explanation:

N₂ + 3H₂ --> 2NH₃

As the N₂ supply is unlimited, what we need to do to solve this problem is <u>convert molecules of H₂ into molecules of NH₃</u>. To do so we use the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em> of the balanced reaction:

  • 15 molecules H₂ * \frac{2moleculesNH_3}{3moleculesH_2} = 10 molecules NH₃

10 NH₃ molecules could be prepared from 15 molecules of H₂ and unlimited N₂.

Why do we need to be more careful of how we use our water
Reil [10]
That's why it's important for you to use water wisely and not to waste it. When you waste water, you're taking water that other people might need. But when you use water carefully, you leave more water for other people to use. It is also important to use water carefully because our weather can be unpredictable.
