The structure of Dimethyl sulfide is H3C-S-CH3. It is produced naturally by some marine algae.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • DMS or dimethyl sulfide is formed by using two methyl groups combined with one sulfur atom. It is an organosulphur compound with a structural formula H3C-S-CH3.
  • Most abundant biological sulfur compounds emitted to air and oceans by phytoplankton.
  • DMS is produced naturally by the waste of dimethyl sulphoxide which is disposed into the sewer causing environmental odor problems.
  • It is a flammable liquid that boils at 37 degrees celsius and a disagreeable smell produced from the cooking of certain vegetables also indicates bacterial contamination in the production of malt and brewing.

Given the following electronic configurations, identify how many valence electrons each atom has.
ololo11 [35]

Answer : Valence electrons in atom A = 1, B = 6 and C = 2.

Explanation :

Valence electrons means the outermost electrons are the ones which involved in bonding. Electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells.

Valence electrons are found in the highest energy orbitals of an element.

  • The electronic configuration of (Na) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^1. The highest energy orbital is 3s orbital which contains 1 electron. So,

        The number of valence electrons in (Na) = A = 1

Similarly,

  • The electronic configuration of (O) is 1s^22s^22p^4. The highest energy orbital are 2s and 2p orbitals which contains (2 + 4) = 6 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (O) = B = 6

  • The electronic configuration of (Fe) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^6. The highest energy orbital is 4s orbital which contains 2 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (Fe) = C = 2

Hello!

Answer: 14.3%

Explanation: In order to find the mass percent of hydrogen in this compound, you must determine how many grams of hydrogen you'd get in 100 g of compound. 

In your case, you know that an unknown mass of hydrogen reacts with 0.771 g of carbon to form 0.90 g of hydrocarbon, which is a compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen. 

Use the total mass of the hydrocarbon to determine how many grams of hydrogen reacted with the carbon.

Now, if 0.90 g of this compound contain 0.129 g of hydrogen, it follows that 100 g of this compound will contain.

So, if 100 g of this compound contain 14.33 g of hydrogen, it follows that the mass percent of hydrogen is 14.3%


Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)

2. How much energy must be removed from a 50.0 g sample of steam in order to get it to condense
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

113 kJ or 113,000J

Explanation:

Since we are condensing it, a physical change in the state of matter is occurring. 113 kJ or 113,000J because of the following equation: Q = 2260 times 50.  2260 is the Heat of Vaporization constant.

How many Fe atoms and how many moles of Fe atoms are in 500.g of iron?
ser-zykov [4K]
MFe: 56 g/mol
..........

56g ----- 1 mol
5g ------- X
X = 5/56 = 0,089 moles of Fe

56g ----- 6,02×10²³ atoms
5g ------- X
X = (5×6,02×10²³)/56
X = 0,5375×10²³ = 5,375×10²² atoms of Fe
