Because copper has a higher electrical and thermal conductivity than iron and is not susceptible to oxidation as easily.

Given
3.5g of element A
4.0g of element G
Required
the empirical formula for this compound
Solution
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.
The empirical formula also shows the simplest mole ratio of the constituent elements of the compound
mol of element A :

mol of element G :

mol ratio A : G = 0.5 : 0.25 = 2 : 1
Specialized proteins which function as catalysts for organic reactions are enzymes.
Answer:
C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8
Explanation:
In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below
we Know that
pKa= -log(Ka)
therefore
A) pKa of HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)
=1.9208
B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644
C) pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45
D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)= 9.3979
If we consider the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution
The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.
So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.
Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.
Answer: The product from the reduction reaction is
CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH
IUPAC name; 3- Methylpentan-1-ol
Explanation:
Since oxidation is simply the addition of oxygen to a compound and reduction is likewise the addition of hydrogen to a compound.
Therefore, hydrogen is added onto the carbon atom adjacent to oxygen in 3- methyl pentanal
CH3 CH2 CHCH3 CH2 CHO thereby -CHO( aldehyde functional group) are reduced to CH2OH ( Primary alcohol) which gives;
3-methylpenta-1-ol .
The structure of the product is:
CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH
