Answer:- Oxygen

Explanations:- Elements of same group(family) forms the bonds in almost similar manner. Oxygen and sulfur are the elements of same group and have equal number of valence electrons. So, they form chemical bonds in similar manner as each one needs two more electrons to complete it's octet.

Hydrogen has one valence electron and so it forms only a one single bond.

Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and it needs three more electrons to complete it's octet and for this it forms three single bonds or one single and one double bond.

Carbon has 4 valence electrons and needs 4 more electrons to complete it's octet. The number of bonds are different for hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon as compared to sulfur.

So, the only and only correct choice is oxygen.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is oxygen.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sulfur is the element having atomic number of 16. The group to which this element belongs is Group 16.

The elements which belong to same group show similar chemical properties because they have same number of valence electrons.

For the given options:

Carbon belongs to Group 14 of the periodic table and thus will not show similar behavior to sulfur.

Hydrogen belongs to Group 1 of the periodic table and thus will not show similar behavior to sulfur.

Oxygen belongs to Group 16 of the periodic table and thus will show similar behavior to sulfur.

Nitrogen belongs to Group 15 of the periodic table and thus will not show similar behavior to sulfur.

From the above information, the correct answer is oxygen.

Use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane. Average bond energies in kJ/mol C-C 347, C
ivanzaharov [21]

The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O  (1)  

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}   (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

  • 2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond
  • 7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond  
  • 4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds  
  • 6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}

\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})      

\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})  

\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol  

\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol          

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.

Activity C: Hydrolysis of Carbohydrates As discussed earlier, disaccharides are composed of two monosaccharides linked together.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Sucrose: glucose and fructose

Explanation:

<em>What monosaccharides will result from the hydrolysis of sucrose?</em>

<em>Sucrose</em> is a <em>disaccharide</em> composed of 2 different <em>monosaccharides</em>: glucose and fructose joining by a 1 ⇒ 2 bond. These monosaccharides will be released upon the hydrolysis of sucrose.

<em>What monosaccharide will result from the hydrolysis of starch?</em>

<em>Starch</em> is a <em>polysaccharide</em> composed of numerous glucose monomers joined by glycosidic bonds (1 ⇒ 4 and 1 ⇒ 6). These monosaccharides will be released upon the hydrolysis of starch.
